Anna Kessler In 1875, the family emigrated to the United States. They sailed from Bremen and arrived in Baltimore 9 Apr 1875 aboard the steamer "Braunschweig". By then, John and Anna had three children, and their fourth was born in Kansas. They were the following:
Mary Anna (1863-1933).
Johann Joseph "John" (1869-1954).
Anton Paul "Tony" (1874-1955).
Frank (1876-1948).
The Brox family settled in the Deer Creek community of Shannon Township, Atchison County, Kansas. John died here 27 June 1910 and was buried in the cemetery of the St. Louis Church northwest of Atchison, Kansas. Anna died 6 June 1913 and was buried with her husband.
