Conrad and Lydia, Gottlieb, Katherine, George, Carl, Alex, Sam, Lillie and William
1930 Census, Montana, Big Horn county.
May 10,1943,Conrad died. The death certificate lists Mrs. Lydia Hert as informant. Conrad is listed as 75 years, 4 months, and 9 days, birthplace Russia. He lived in the area for 28 years.
Aunt Delilah states that the land Conrad farmed was unplowed sod.
Conrad finalized the payment on his property in Big Horn county Montana; the county informed him that annual tax payments would be expected. Conrad became angry and walked away from his home. His poor command of the English language probably explains this action. He purchased another piece of property nearby and resumed farming.
