THIS seems to me to be a really precious document for the Naber family in 1878 Nebraska. It gave them ownership of 80 acres because they'd lived there for six years, and they'd improved it. That 12 X 27 soddy was about the size of a small one car garage, and the 10 X 20 one is mentioned as a second house...like for sleeping maybe?
Below, December 1st, 1877, John becomes a citizen of the United States, and so his whole family became citizens too.
(John Heinrich was my grandmothers' uncle, or Great grandpa Gerhards' brother).
