From The Nicollet Leader, Saturday, March 22, 1919 issue

Nicholas Dauffenbach, another one of the pioneer
settlers of this county, died at the home of his son,
Michael, in Belgrade township last Friday afternoon.
His death was due to stomach trouble, with influenza
as the contributory cause. The deceased was born in
Luxemburg, Germany, March 17, 1831 and lived to the
ripe old age of nearly 88 years. He came to this
country when still a young man and made his home in
New York for three years, and then for eight years was
a resident of Chicago, coming to Nicollet county in
1867 and filed on a homestead in Belgrade township
where he has resided ever since. His wife died about
eight years ago. He is survived by two sons and one
daughter: John, of North Mankato; Michael, on the home
place in Belgrade and Mrs Susan Wagner of Marinetta,
Wis. The funeral was held Monday morning from the
Belgrade Catholic church, Rev M Moitzheim of Nicollet
officiating. The interment was in the church cemetery.
