Nic Ecker

Nic Ecker came to America from Luxembourg in 1892.  He sailed on the Red Star Line.  His first job was on the railroad in SE Nebraska.  We don't know when he left that job but at some point he went to Iowa where he met Minnie Trapp at Granville.  They were married on Nov. 25, 1896 in St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Granville.
