He was baptized on January 02, 1874 and confirmed on April 08, 1888 in the Lutheran church. He died March 04, 1957. At age 17 he came to America and settled near Westboro, Missouri. He married Louise Blankenmeier here on May 10, 1900. They moved to a farm near Farragut, Iowa and in 1903 to Nance County, Nebraska and settled on a farm near Timber Creek. His wife died April 08, 1912. The last 15 years of his life he lived with his daughter, Mrs. George (Hilda) Ahlers. He died at Fullerton Memorial Hospital. He is survived by his children, Helen Sunderman, Bockmann, Rebhuhn, Irene Koch and Alma Walters all of Iowa. He is also survived by his children, Hilda Ahlers and Adolf Sunderman, of Nebraska. He was buried in the cemetery at Peace Lutheran church in Timber Creek, Nebraska. (In my research, I have found several variations on his name as well as the spellings of his and Louise's last name.)
