I have found in the Tampico Tornado (note DRONENBERG): November 27, 1903 August JANKE who lives with Robt. DRONNENBERG was called to Pontiac Wednesday by the serious illness of his mother. December 25, 1903 Rev. SAGE, of Normal, Ill., visited his old friends, the DRONNENBERGs, south of here last week and alos preached every evening at the Fairfield Center chapel. October 7, 1904 George BRONSON, of Odell, Ill., visited his sister, Mrs. Frank DRONENBERG, and other relatives in that vicinity the latter part of last week. April 6, 1904 BRAINERD & DRAYTON are putting up a new windmill for Frank DRONENBERG. September 9, 1920 SHOWER BRIDE-TO-BE A miscellaneous shower was held recently at the home of Mrs. Jospeh BURDEN in honor of Miss Ellen BURDEN.
