Roesler Family in Barton County Kansas. Frank Victor Roesler who married Caroline Olson in La Crosse Wisconsin settled in the Logan area of Barton County before 1900 Census, probably about 1983. They had 5 children Josephine, Frank Victor Jr, Emily and Emmanuel twins and Alfred. The twins and Alfred were born in Claflin, Ks and the other older children in La Crosse, WI. I would like to know more about the Roesler Opera House which was built by him and may still stand in Claflin which hosted many meetings and entertainments. Emily married William Wilkinson and Alfred married Katherene Krammer. I would like to have photos of any of these people to insert into the Roesler family book which I plan to publish. Any information about data or photos would be greatly appreciated.

He also had a brother Joseph who settled in Ellsworth County, Kansas according to the 1910 Census. However, he married Bertha or Berta Manke about 1879 in Logan Township, Barton County Kansas. All of their 6 children were born in Logan Township, Barton County. Hattie, Emil, Emma, Herman, Helen, and Joseph. Any information about these families would be greatly appreciated.
