This site contains the family histories of three small towns in Northeast Iowa. I chose these towns because my father was born and raised in St. Lucas, my mother was raised in Festina, and they raised me in Ossian. The files contained here always contain sources, but not every fact is supported by a cited source.
My name is Bruce Kuennen. My relatives are included here, in many of the families. However, the best place to find my family information is at Kuennen - Hollerbach Families. This is where you can also find the families of my first wife, the mother of my children, Lynn Ann Hollenbeck. Her families emigrated from Germany and Ireland, and settled in Ohio.
As I update family files, I am adding "Ancestors of" files of a representative member of that family. See, for example, "Ancestors of Brady A. Kuennen" on the I-L page. I like how many of these files weave the families together. I can produce these reports for you or a member of your family if you use the contact form below.
Please send corrections and additions via the contact form. If you feel that your family should be included as a "Family of Ossian, Festina, or St. Lucas", I hope that you will please tell me so, and I will try to include as full of a family genealogy as I can create.
