Hans Henry> Henry F.>Adolph:
There is a newspaper article about Adolph's death from the Sioux City newspaper with photo, Dec. 1911, headlined "Officer makes last call". I thought you might like to see a picture of him without the "keystone Cops" high helmut in the newspaper. Obit in Ida Grove (IA) Pioneer record Dec 13, 1911 says he died after 4 days sickness. Leaves a widow, 3 brothers and a sister. An officer with a fine record. Was honored for great bravery in the "K.P. Fire" some time ago. A family note says "Married, Maude ?",
We haven't found their marriage at this point. He looks remarkably like his brother Henry Hans (Jim's grandfather) Wonder what Henry F. looked like. (Wonder if some of ADELIA Schlotfeldt CARSTENS' descendants around Ida Grove, Iowa and Schleswig might be the last hope for any photo archives of Henry and Marg. who are buried in Schleswig. If anyone knows any folks of that group, your help would be great.
