Census 1920

From what I can see in the 1920 Census, I have found 9 Groups of Peters family's in Mountain lake, MN. Unsure who is related at this point, But I did not find another John Henry Peters. I find this good, because the war draft card is looking more and more correct.

I found:

• Herman P Peters (33 of Russia/ Germany) Immigrated in 1894
• Henry C Peters (50 of Russia) Immigrated 1875
• Cornelius Peters (76 or Germany) Immigrated 1873
• Abraham H Peters (26 of Crima) Immigrated 1900
• Henry K Peters (52 of Germany) Immigrated 1895
•     Son's Henry H (27of Russia), Herman P (25 of Russia) Immigrated 1895
• Aron C Peters (58 of Germany ) Immigrated 1873
• Diedrick Peters (72 of Germany) Immigrated 1876
• Henry Peters (59 of Germany) Immigrated ?

1900 Census recorded 1 Peters family living on Cottonwood County:

1. Herman Peters age 50, immigrated in 1894

1910 Census recorded 1 Peters family living on Cottonwood County:

1.  Herman Peters age 60, immigrated in 1894
2. Dietrich Peters age 63, immigrated in 1876

The information I have gathered is that John Henry Peters, Oct 16, 1891-Jul 31, 1948 immigrated in 1898, making him only 7. So he had to come over with another person. So the information that Cindy Ann Bell Polehn, 1 Feb 1964 gave me about a brother living in Canada makes since. But still where and who did he stay with before his brother moved to Canada is my new question.

 

If I can find his brothers name I might be able to get my answer, But I still haven't found another Peters family immigrating in the same year (1898). I have a big gap of 22 years to find out more about John Henry Peters, Oct 16, 1891-Jul 31, 1948.
