Rachel Sommerer sent me this link that contains biographies from people living in Cole County in the 1800s. There are two Sommerers on the list:
- John J. Sommerer
- John M. Sommerer
You’ll have to scroll down the list to see them. And while you’re scrolling, pause a moment when you get to John W. Schulte and tell me if he doesn’t look like the “modern day” schulte’s.
