"In March, 1867, when I was about ten years old, my parents, one brother, one sister, and myself, came to Dakota County. Rev. Samuel Aughey had come out to Dakota County the year before, from Indiana County, Pennsylvania, and had returned to Pennsylvania and persuaded several families to come back with him the next year. After we came to Dakota City we went out on our farm that father had spoken for. We crossed the Missouri River on the ice; Augustus Haase (father of Mrs Neiswanger of Dakota City) and C. F. Eckert, from Dakota City, were at Sioux City with wagons; the one wagon brought back goods, hardware, etc., and the other wagon took us to Dakota City. Phil, Mary A., Samuel and Ella Bridgenbaugh came out with us; we came by train to Sioux City...."
