Family Reunion After Five Years At Hospers
Jacobus Datthyn of New York City, after five years of searching, found his wife Catthyn and their two children Jennie and Jake living in Hospers Iowa. The family had moved from New York to Alton then to Hospers, with Catthyn posing as a widow under juvenile supervision until local support ended. Catthyn’s husband, a New York Central brake man, tracked towns by name and photo, aided by railroad officials and detectives as he sought them, planning to bring them to New York. Meanwhile, the Hospers encounter ends in a hopeful reunion as the husband continues to pursue his family and arrange travel back home.
