Dear sister and all, 
Got you letter some time ago forgive me for not answering sooner. You wanted to
know how Ma's life from the time she was born till her death I will do the best
I can. Mom was born in a little village by the name of Waschenbeuren (other
spellings are scratched out) Germany. She was named Rosina Kuhn her father's
name was Andres Kuhn her mother's maiden name was Singer I do not know her
mother's first name she died when she mom was 4 (could be 14, or just a scratch)
years old she went to a grade school till she was 16 then she worked in a mill
and dairy farm till she was 23 when she married Micheal Bye in May 1869. They
lived in Germany about 10 years but after her father died they migrated to this
country in 1879 and settled here at Cass City.  Micheal Bye died in 1900. Mother
