The Ruhle Family

Over the last few months The Clifton Courier has presented a number of articles examining the story of many of our pioneer families. We had no predetermined view as to what families or their nationalities we wanted to cover and in fact they were chosen at random. However, after covering more than a dozen of these pioneer families, Clifton’s older residents will not be surprised to note the vast majority of these families are of German origin. Clifton’s pioneers were certainly a multi cultural collection of European nationalities with Scottish, English and Irish families represented but the list of German families is dominant... at least in our randomly chosen collection.
