Summary: A horse in a pasture was found tangled up in a clump of tallow
trees, a foot off the ground. It took the fire department, neighbors
with chain saws, and a forklift to get him out.

The horse that was rescued Wednesday was put down Thursday. Reportedly
had a leg or internal injury and "gave up."

| Sounds like Don Bruder has a relative down there....!!
"Smokey’s owner, Lisa Bruder, told firefighters the horse had gotten
trapped there some time in the night. The going theory is that he was
spooked — and just jumped — right into the wedge of several tree trunks.
But no one really knows what caused Smokey to get stuck like that.
“We don’t know,” said Bruder. “Things just happen with horses.”""

Doubtful... Only living female relatives I'm aware of are my mother,
sister, and a niece who isn't old enough to do much more with a horse
than *MAYBE* make gurgly noises at it and/or get stepped on if left too
close to one unsupervised. All of them are accounted for (and nowhere
that even the most fevered imagination would call "near" the site of the
incident) in the frozen waste of northern Michigan as of last week. And
last I knew, none of them answered to "Lisa" :)
Bruder is a relatively (no pun intended...) common germanic surname,
deriving from the german word meaning "Brother". (Yes, there's a bit of
"kraut" in my family tree - also a couple indians, a drunken irishman or
three, several frogs (You don't get much more french than "Genoud",
which is how it's SUPPOSED to be spelled, but at Ellis island, became
"Shinew"), two wops that we're sure of, the traditional "nigger in the
woodpile" (Yes, ladies and gents, the white boy said the "N" word. We
can't prove it, but we have every reason to think that he was one of the
earliest escaped slaves to cross into Canada via the "underground
railroad", which, coincidentally, used what was later to become the
family farm as one of the last stops before Canada) and a ?!canadian?!
catholic priest who was apparently clandestinely doin' the nasty with a
serving girl of some type (we can figure out no other explanation for
how/why she vanished from the "paperwork trail" into his service in
1820, and emerged, still unmarried, in 1826, with a 3 year old child in
tow. A child who became my ( Was it 4-times great? Or 5? I can't
remember without the charts in front of me) grandfather further along.
And never mind the dutch... My mother likes to joke that we've got more
vans in the family than a moving company. (We trace back to Anneke Hans
& Peter Stuyvesant, by way of a series of "vanThis" and "vanThat"
ancestors)
Back when the lycos "people finder" still produced results that seemed
coherent, I did some poking around, and found over a dozen Don/Donald
Bruders scattered across the USA - The surprise? NONE of them were me!
NOT ONE! They were living in places I'd never heard of, let alone had an
address, their listed ages and/or DOBs were wrong, middle names/initials
wrong, "junior/senior/etc" suffixes wrong, and so on.
Heck, back when I was in Albany, I even got pulled over by a Georgia
state trooper whose name tag proclaimed him "D. Bruder". When I asked,
it turned out he was another "Don". We both got a chuckle out of that,
and I *THINK* the coincidence may have spared me a speeding ticket (Not
sure. The car's speedometer cable was broke - I might have been
speeding, or I might not have - I honestly don't know.)
