HORNUNG - Casper Hornung, d. 6 June 1877 "Casper was born in the Prussian Province of Saxony [sic]. He was carefully educated at a private school and reared to agricultural pursuits, his father being the owner of a fine and large estate. When 27 years of age he was united in marriage with Miss Louisa Burckart...The young people settled on one of the little farms belonging to the father, and lived there for a period of 10 years. "In 1866, Casper Hornung, believing that there were better opportunities for an ambitious and enterprising man on the other side of the Atlantic, embarked with his wife and six children (paying $60 apiece for their tickets) for a voyage across the Atlantic. The little family included two sons and four daughters.... "The Hornung family arrived in New York City with funds nearly exhausted, but the father soon found work on a farm in Niagara County, where they lived for a period of five years. Then, in the spring of 1871, learning of the advantages proffered to the homesteader of Nebraska, they migrated hither and settled upon the land which has been transformed into a valuable farm. Many were the trials and hardships they encountered with the elements of a new soil and country, also a strange people, and for a period of five years they lived in a dug-out. This finally caved in, and the father put up a sod house. Under the roof of this humble dwelling Mr. Hornung died of consumption June 6, 1877."
