Every year I do the "Dead Huss" tour and take who ever wants to go to visit all of our dead relatives who are buried near Perham. The only taker this year was Lori. I would like to acknowledge my cousin Linda Huss who has done a lot of research on the Huss family. Without that research- I would not be able to conduct the tour. For for information about the Huss Family go to her website: www.http://www.www.geocities.com/ljh/index.html

As for the 2 tombstones above. They are in St. Joseph's Cemetery near Dent. The first one is Nick Huss' who died of Typhoid Fever as did his mother and 5 of his brothers and sisters. He was my grandfather Mike Huss' brother. The other tombstone was my grandfather's brother Ludwig.


This is my grand parents Mike & Rose Huss' grave in St. Henry's Cemetery in Perham.


This is my great grand parent's Catherine and Bernard Friedsam's grave in St. Lawrence's Cemetery in Rush Lake.
