I never knew that my my Great-grandfather was
a night watchman.
Berger worked in Summit SD for many years for a Dr. Grote.
He farmed his land like a sharecropper.
Also during the great depression he worked at the Homestake mine
in Lead SD. He used to tell me stories about that. Pete

I am working on my family tree and am looking for a contact who
might be able to assist in researching my ancestors in the Deuel County area. I know
that my Grandfather (Benard (Ben) Harvey Ploof) was born in Goodwin, SD, August 30th 1902,
SSN 481-07-5683. I'm looking for more information on Benard's parents and
grandparents, etc....
Benard's Parents were: John Ploof (abt
1860) and Katherine Kiegel. (Benard is one of 15 siblings) At some point in time the
name may have been "Plouff". Many thanks. We are located in Central Texas and
may be able to recipricate on research. I've also located a railroad listing for:
Ploof, John
Trucker C.
M. & St. P. 1911
Ploof, Joseph Engine
Dispatcher C. M. & St. P. 1911
Probably brothers of Benard. I have minimal information on Benard's
siblings that I can share. Contact Steven Ploof
