FELKER, FOREMAN posted by Mary Jo Wolden on Thursday, August 30, 2001: My great grandmother Julia Christina Felker had five brothers. They are all said to have been born in Crawford County Indiana. Julia married George William Foreman (probably in indiana) and they came west to North Dakota where they raised a large family. Around 1900 when they were homesteading in North Dakota, they got special permission to leave for Nebraska so their children could go to school. Apparently Julia's brothers lived near Sumner Nebraska and they could stay with either or some of them. The brothers were: Charles, Phillip, Peter, Jacob and Herman Felker. Does anyone research these names?
