      "Heinrich Rudolf (Rudolph) [Utlaut] was twelve years-of-age when his father and mother brought him to the United States." It is known from other sources that the family emigrated in 1836. If the Norma Trantham is correct about Heinrich's age at this time, by calculation he would have been born about 1823-1824.

      "It is highly probable that J. H. KERSTEN and JOHN UTHLAUT brought their families to America with the "Thirty-twoers". To alleviate the doubt that exists we might say that 1831 is more correct for JOHN UTHLAUT'S arrival since it is reported that RUDOLPH, his son, was 6 years old when he came to our shores and RUDOLPH was born on June 25, 1824."

[They] landed in the area known as the Holstein-Treloar region of Missouri. There they settled taking up farming and living in the midst of other German families who had come before them. The fact that they arrived in the area in the dead of winter leads one to believe that they received aid and shelter from the other families living in the area."

      "RUDOLPH UTHLAUT courted and married SOPHIA BRUNDIECK, who was born February 2, 1833, in Germany. Just when and where they were wed or where SOPHIA grew up is not known, but it is quite likely they were united in marriage in Holstein, since it is known that a sister of SOPHIA married a Mr. Schomberg who lived his life in that community. After their marriage RUDOLPH and SOPHIA moved to Osage County, Missouri and went into housekeeping on a farm at Deer, Missouri, where they actively engaged in tilling the soil. There they raised their family amidst sorrow and joy, becoming the parents of seven children."
