Introduction

In 1865 John Fauble came to the United States from Germany. He was 29 when he arrived in the United States. He was a farm worker in Germany. He had several reasons for coming to United States. He heard there were better working conditions and better land. It is also been said he killed the man he worked for or the man who “owned” him. John Fauble changed his name when he came to the United States to John Vaubel. John married Caroline in 1867 when she was 17 and he was 31. In 1880 John moved his family to the Mapleton, MN area where they built a house and farmed. The house was still standing as of May 19, 1978. Probably the hardest time in John and Caroline’s life was the January of 1891 when four of their children died from diphtheria. The land near Mapleton MN that John and his wife, Caroline, had is still owned by Vaubel’s and is still farmed.
