Lori Kemper-Szukalski (ID 39229), getrouwd met achterkleinzoon Kristopher Kemper:
Kris' dad said that when the Kempers and Kerkhovens and another family all came over to the US, they all lived in the same part of town and all kept company together since they didn't know anyone else. Then it seemed that they all married one another in some capacity. I guess it makes sense. In Chicago especially, each nationality had a specific section of town they happened to land in. When I was in college, I lived between "Little Italy" and "Greektown". Alot of the older generation still lived there and tolerated the young college kids.
