==History==
Carl Wilhelm August Groos (1830–1893) was a Prussian emigrant to Texas in 1848, first in Fayette County and then Gillespie County. In February 1870, Groos purchased a block of land between Seguin and Castell Streets, which consisted of Lot 56 and Lot 72 for $1,900. On May 20, 1870, he married Hulda Amalie Moureau of New Braunfels, and became part of his father-in-law's business. Groos built his New Braunfels home shortly after the wedding. In 1872, Groos moved his family to San Antonio, retaining ownership of the New Braunfels house. In 1879, the house was sold to Gross's sister Emile and her husband New Braunfels’ Mayor Johann Friedrich Adolph Giesecke. A native of Hanover, Germany, Giesecke emigrated to Texas in 1846.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://ghf.destinationnext.com/immigration/SearchDetails.aspx?ID=9705 )〕 The Gieseckes sold the house to local merchant Fritz Scholl, whose family retained ownership until 1946. Scholl was married to the daughter of Julius Rennert, one of the original New Braunfels settlers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://ghf.destinationnext.com/immigration/SearchDetails.aspx?ID=6534 )〕 Arlon and Faye Krueger, parents of career politician and diplomat Bob Krueger, purchased the house in 1946. Arlon Krueger's grandfather Karl emigrated to Texas in the 19th Century. Upon Arlon's death in 1973, the house remained with his immediate family. Bob Krueger used the building as his business office, and had the building renovated in 1999.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://atlas.thc.state.tx.us/viewform.asp?atlas_num=2000000884&site_name=Groos,+Carl+W.A.,+House&class=2001 )〕
