Yutan Centennial Book -
John U. and Elizabeth Wuthrich Zaugg, both born in Switzerland, migrated to America and homesteaded in the Clear Creek area of Union precinct, Saunders County in 1869. They are the great-great-grandparents of Marvin (known as Bud) Zaugg who still lives in the Clear Creek area. Marvin is the son of Elmer and Leona Backens Zaugg and grandson of John Jr. and Cathrina Siemsen Zaugg. Leona was the daughter of Heinrich and Bertha Stoldt Backens. Heinrich was the son of Hans Jurgen and Anna Heldt Backens. Marvin married Floy Seefus in 1946, daughter of Herry and Ellen Grover Seefus. My paternal grandfather came from Illinois and my grandmother came from with her two sisters when she was 14 years old. They settled in the Papillion and Waterloo, Nebraska area. My mother's family was of Irish and English descent and lived in the Valley, Nebraska community. My husband and I and our three daughters are graduates of Yutan High School. Out daughters are Sharon Timm and Shirley Simons (who are twins) and Susan Trapp. Also, our pride and joy are our seven grandchildren: Jason, Jospeh and Brenda Simons, Andrew and Mathew Timm, and Ryan and Ashlee Trapp. Our life is our family. We all enjoy life on the farm and the Zauggs will always be remembered for their appreciation of good horses. Marvin also treasures antiques, especially John Deere tractors. He loves farming and, with the help of our sons-in-law, tills many acres as well as raising cattle and hogs. We belong to St. John's Lutheran Church and cherish many happy and sad memories down through the years. Holidays are family days! We manage to be together and share! " Submitted by Floy Zaugg
