Notes:

Information from Jack JDS:
This woman is Maria Christina Goringer/Garinger, the illegitimate daughter
of above. As her mother brought her to Kukkus when she (the mother)
married Krumm/Krum, she became the stepdaughter of Krumm/Krum. In fact,
she is listed as the stepdaughter in two records showing their immigration
through Quebec City, QC, Canada. In one she is listed a handful of lines
above the Krumm/Krum family, and in the other she is written in as the last
entry with the family. In both she's a stepdaughter. I think this clan
came in to Quebec City and traveled through Winnipeg on their way to
Lincoln, NE.

In the 1910 Census the Krumm/Krum family is listed in Michigan with 6 kids,
the eldest being Margaretha Catharina from Krumm/Krum's prior
marriage. The son Andreas/Andrew from the same prior marriage was still in
Nebraska, where the family had originally settled. I believe he was
working as a laborer on a farm a few counties away from Lincoln and
enumerated as "Andy Krumb." He subsequently followed to Michigan as I will
note in a moment. The next eldest "Krum" daughter was, in fact, the
stepdaughter Maria Christina Goringer/Garinger, the illegitimate daughter
of the wife Maria Christina (Goringer) Krumm/Krum. The remaining 4 kids
were from both of these parents, and they are actually the only ones
included in the "count" of 4 born, 4 living. It should read 5 born, 5
living, but apparently either the enumerator or the wife did not understand
that this field meant kids by just the mother, not by both parents. The
record also indicates that these folks had been married 10 years, he on his
second marriage, she on her first. In his case I'm not so sure that he was
only married once before, but in hers this was, in fact, her first marriage.

On 23 Feb 1913 Andreas/Andrew, son of Krumm/Krum by the prior marriage,
married Maria Christina Goringer/Garinger, the illegitimate daughter of
Maria Christina (Goringer) Krumm/Krum. I wonder how they met? Ha! In the
record the bride's name is spelled Garinger, which is the variant used by
most, if not all, of my Goringer cousins that settled in Michigan. The
bride's father's name is "Peter." It may well actually have been some
Peter, but I doubt it. The mother's name was "Mary." The bride was living
with her mother, Maria Christina aka "Mary" and her stepfather, so I would
think her mother was "kind enough" to supply her with the "legitimate"
father's name. Actually, I think what her mother provided was her own (the
mother's) father's name, Peter, and it wouldn't surprise me if she never
let on to the girl that she was illegitimate, and that the girl's obituary
may well also be incorrect on this point. Either way, the fact that the
mother provided this name Peter seems to have led most, if not all,
"genealogists" astray. Ha! They could search for the mysterious Peter
Goringer until the end of time, and they'd never find him because he
doesn't exist.
