The Labish family came to the United States in about 1847 from Germany -- Carl (Charles), his wife Albertina and their four sons and one daughter. In Missouri, a fifth son was born, Robert. They made the long hard trek across the plains and through the Rocky Mountains to California and settled in Santa Cruz County. According to the 1850 census, Charles worked as a blacksmith. One more child was born in California, Albert.
