The Daniel Unruh Family
Daniel Unruh (1820-1893) Married Marie Wedel (1821-1894)
Daniel's wife Marie Wedel (1821-1894) was an older sister of Henry Wedel (1832-0000) of the Wedel connection to the Wall Family. Daniel Unruh's youngest daughter Elizabeth married my father's uncle/ Henry Wall (1843-1916) and their children are my father's 1st cousins. In addition there are several marriages with my mothers family. Wall family reports say that Daniel Unruh and Tobias Unruh were cousins.
Daniel Unruh and Marie Wedel were born in the Molotschna colony of Southern Russia. About 1862 they moved to the Crimea and lived in the village of Bruderfeld. They arrived in America aboard the "SS" Hammonia on August 15, 1873. Daniel and Marie with their party reached Yankton, Dakota Territory and settled at Turkey Ridge Creek on October 18, 1873.
In 1874, Daniel purchased 1,200 acres of land in the fertile area of Spring Valley, Dakota Territory. 7 homes were built on the village plan, all in a straight line, about 7 rods between each home. One built for themselves and one for each of the 5 married children. The 7th home was built �ܬ���� Dietrich Neufeld, a very close friend of Daniel Unruh.
The arrangement was such that the youngest son of the family lived next to the parental home while the oldest daughter and husband lived the farthest away.

The home Daniel and Marie built for themselves was of two story construction with the family living at one end and with servants at the other end with a long hallway in-between. The kitchen was on the servant�ܬ�܈�s side and the main dining room was on the family side, where the children, relatives and etc. would eat. Henry and Marie normally would be served meals in their private living and bedrooms.
Being wealthy, Daniel and Marie did not work, servants were hired for all of the household duties, hired hands looked after the animals and all farming and building activities.
In 1877 the village plan was abandoned and the houses were moved to their owner's own property. Daniel became a US Citizen in 1879. He invested in large flocks of sheep and cattle. The sheep borders looked after several thousand sheep and the cowboys looked after a very large herd of thoroughbred cattle. Daniel also loaned money to friends and relatives to help them get started in the New World. These loans he gave willingly, not asking for a note or written agreement, only a friendly handshake was required.
In the spring of 1884 at the age of 64, Daniel retired from active management of his large estate and sold his land and personal property to his sons John D. and Cornelius. During their final years, Daniel and Marie remained on their home place. Daniel and Marie maintained their Mennonite faith the rest of their lives. Daniel died on May 18, 1893 and Marie died on November 12, 1894. Both were buried on their own land on a little knoll not far from their home.
