About this ebook

In a mission of preserving prairie Grasslands, I present Passage Through Dust--Pioneer Eastern Dakota, a historical chronicle showing changes of prairie life. Anecdotes concern German-American pioneer days on the Plains, with Victoriana noted.



My German Grandparents and Great Grandparents homesteaded in Waverly-Watertown area in 1880. Born and raised on the farm, I also interviewed Mother throughout her 92 years about ancestors, land, community and climate.



Anecdotes cover blizzards, hail storms, personality sketches, future of Plains, immigrants ocean crossings, behind scenes in country community, remnants of early days, bare survival, drouth crisis, hand digging wells, other stories.
