| 540 | THE TRUED FAMILY IN THE U.S.A. JOSEPH: Born on Nebraska farm and went to country school in Saunders County. He worked to help support his sisters and younger brother. After moving to Missouri with family, he married Allie Thompson (Feb. 1, 1910).

They were giants in the earth. He has been a successful farmer in Amsterdam, Mo., ever since he acquired his own place. Joe and his family belong to the Baptist church. S.
