HENRY CARSTENS DIES AFTER LONG ILLNESS
 
Henry Carstens, a resident of this community for many years, died at his home 
on river street just before midnight Monday May 15th after an illness of many 
months, thus removing from our midst another of the early settlers of the 
Payette Valley.  Mr. Carstens came to this section as one of the pioneers and 
did his full share in developing the country as long as his health would 
permit.  He was born in Germany June 14th, 1860 and came to America with his 
parents when 13 years of age, setting at that time at Davenport Iowa, and 
later the family moved to Denison Iowa, and from here to the state of Nebraska 
where on July 15th, 1886 he was united in marriage to Anna Dau, and in 1893 he 
came with his family to Idaho settling at Falk Store where he ran a stage from 
Falk to Payette and a few years later moved to Payette where he carried the 
mail for several years from Payette to New Plymouth before the railroad was 
built, which was the first mail route out of Payette.  Mr. Carstens continued 
to live in Payette until the time of his death.  Besides his wife, he is 
survived by five sons and three daughters, William N. Carstens of Boise, 
Herman of Eagle, Idaho, Mrs. Emma Ferber of Payette, Henry of Seattle, Mrs. 
John T. Hanigan, August D. and Edward of Payette and Mrs. Frank Browning of 
Gypsum of Colorado.
 
The funeral will be from the Evangelical Church Friday at ten A. M. and will 
be conducted by the pastor Rev. Charles Hoffman.
