Researching: Lucas and Matilda MOSER living in Mallory and Guttenberg, Clayton County, Iowa in late 1800s.
Years ago my father mentioned a Will Shrunk in reference to my g-grandfather Lucas Moser. I can't remember if he said they were friends or relatives.
Lucas and several of his children and grandchildren later moved to eastern WA state. Since my father knew of Will Shrunk, I assume Will either moved to WA state as well or at least visited. Do you have any information about this Will Shrunk and/or his relationship with the Mosers?
Lucas, Matilda and various children are shown in the 1885 and 1895 censuses in Mallory and Guttenberg respectively. Lucas had a brother "Donnie" who had three sons: Freeman, Ambrose and Joe. I have not been able to find them listed in the censuses except for Ambrose in 1900 in eastern WA State.
Thank you for your time and effort in answering.
