Résumé du livre
Johann Philipp Gruss (1722-1804) arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania from his native Germany in 1754. He married Anna Catherina shortly after his arrival and they had five children. They eventually settled in North Carolina. One of their sons changed the spelling of his name from Gruss to Cruse. His name was John Adam Cruse (1761-1821) and he married Rosanna Cress in 1784. In 1818 John Adam moved his family to Union County, Illinois. Descendants live in Illinois, Colorado, California and other parts of the United States.
