Born June 19, 1854, in Germany. Emilie Mathilda Theresa Kinne had a pair of old pictures taken in a photography studio in Fort Dodge showing the three Treband
children, two boys and a girl. Janice Lind has these pictures now, and I have
a copy, too. I've looked in a phone directory of the USA dated 1994 for the
name Treband and found none. Died in 1923.
Barbara Johnson Loveland says: "Maria was called "Mamie"; she burned to death when she & her brothers were lighting firecrackers behind a barn when she was 7."
Johann Heinrich Friedrich Miller (Mueller)
Born Mar 21, 1858, in Braunschweig, Germany. Braunschweig is a state -- he
was probably born in the village of Hedeper, since that is where the Kinne
and Ziehe families are from; someone should check the church records there
for his record of birth. Known as Henry. Was a Lutheran.They lived on a 160 acre farm (a quarter section) two miles east (or
northeast) of Dayton, Iowa, with only 52 acres tillable, due to the hills.
The quarter section just to the east was the Kramer farm. They had cattle,
sheep, ducks, geese, and chickens. Pauline did a lot of gardening, and Henry
would truck the produce into town for sale to regular customers. They also
sold strawberries and raspberries.He died March 29, 1946, of a heart attack, and is buried in Dayton, Iowa. We
have a copy of the obituary, which mentions that Matilda and Florine were
living with him.The farm grew to 175 acres later when Johanna bought a plot just west of the
house to add some privacy.Sidney Sandholm, a realtor in Dayton, told us the Miller farm is what became
the current Girl Scout camp, and Theodor Fredrick Miller confirms this.
Sandholm is the one who put me in touch with the Miller branch of the family,
and is a good source of information about the town of Dayton and the people
there. His home phone is 515-547-2327, and his realty is 515-547-2311.We have a copy of a newspaper article from Fort Dodge, April 30, 1960,
detailing the sale of the farm by Edgar Miller, Florine Miller, and Theodore
Miller, to the Lakota Girl Scout council for use as a camp.Janice Line remembers the Miller sisters Florine and Mathilda (Tillie). They
lived together in the woods by Dayton, and made their own elderberry wine.
Theodor remembers that they also made plum wine, grape wine, rhubarb wine,
and probably other types. They had many plum trees.Marvin Hoyer remembers Florine and Mathilda, too. They used to dress as in
Arsenic and Old Lace, with a forties' style print dress with lace added
around the collars, and a black straw hat with fake fruit on the brim.1 FATH I855

From Barbara Johnson Loveland: "William Frederick Treband (original name Wilhelm Friedrich Trieband -ancestor with the first & middle name, last name Ziehe) married Jessie Hicks. Jessie's mother was Anna Rand who married Silas Hicks."
From Barbara Johnson Loveland: "Frank's wife died after about 5 years of marriage and he never re-married. Lived at the YMCA the rest of his life and nothing was known about his source of income. He never had employment after his middle 50's. (Another family curiosity.) He died after being struck by a car on New Year's Eve morning on his way to breakfast at his usual restaurant."
After a certain point, Emily was estranged from the family.
