Obituary, in German, translated by Matthew Schuerman: Schòrman--Anna Christine Carolina Schuerman nee Weegmann, was born Aug. 23, 1822, in Muhlheim, Germany. In 1849, she married Peter Wilhelm Schuerman, to whom she had been engaged for two and a half years. They came to America the same year and settled in Richland County, Wis. They were soon sought out by the preachers of the Evangelical Association and shown the way of the Lord. She was converted by a preacher via Tertesworte Joshua 24, 15. She was one of the first members of the Evangelical Association in the region, and the memory of her will remain still longer in the old Ash Creek community. Her motto was: "I and my house will serve the Lord." She did what she could for her family and the kingdom of God. On Feb. 6, 1905, after a few days of illness, she uttered the words, "Soon I'll be home," and was conveyed to the refuge of her Lord. Her husband and one son preceded her in death. She leaves behind two daughters and three sons. One daughter is the wife of Dr. C. Wiegand and the other of Rev. C. J. Finger, and two sons are preachers. In addition to her children, 25 grandchildren, one great-grandchild, other relatives and many friends mourn her death. Her age was 82 years, five months and 13 days. -- Ino.

They intend to go Monday Mor while they were here yesterday the Girls divided up the things that ma had and saw to it well that you got your share which is all packed ready to ship as soon as you let me know where to ship to.

The only advice I can give is to go carefull. Hoping you are all well With love I remain your Bro. F. G. Schuerman
