Immigration backgrounder: George Conrad Butz, Sr., and Maria Christina Butz came to the US June 27, 1903 at the port of Galveston aboard the SS Köln sailing from Bremen on June 4, 1903, with three of their grandsons and two grand daughters by son Johannes; granddaughter Katherina/Catherine Butz (who will later marry Henry Dreith in Denver); and their daughter and her husband, Susanna Katharina Butz Trübelhorn & Johann Balthasar Trübelhorn, Jr., and their four daughters Elizabetha (Elizabeth/Lizzie), Emilie (Milly), Maria (Mary) and Amalia (Molly). In America they start spelling Trübelhorn as Triebelhorn (others of the family in Denver spell it Tribelhorn and Treibelhorn). This whole group arriving June 27, 1903, was sponsored by George Conrad and Maria Christina’s son Lucas Butz (1861-1935), who immigrated to Globeville in 1892 and made his home at 4465 N. Sherman Street. Lucas also sponsored Conrad Butz (1878 to 1965) to immigrate to Globeville in 1899; Conrad eventually sets up his family’s first Denver home next door to Lucas at 4459 Sherman St.
