Curt Emil Schroeder (1872-1946), born in Berlin, Germany, immigrated to Florida to join his uncles, Otto, Ernest, and Albert Stypmann in Stuart in 1893. He kept diaries and later used them as a basis for a series of articles on pioneer life.
The first article of the series was published January 18, 1945, entitled: "Early Days on the 'Santa Lucia' - First Opening of St. Lucie Inlet." Subsequent articles appeared under the heading "The Early Settlers of St. Lucie River." The articles always appeared on page 4. The series ended without any comment. His articles were published together in a book-length feature in the 25th Anniversary of Martin County edition of The Stuart News on November 9, 1950.
