In the Kirchenbuch is the notation that she was confirmed "English," meaning in the German language, as were two others on that Palm Sunday.
1917 was the first year in which none of the Confirmands were confirmed "Deutsch."
In Zion's Centennial: Zion Evangelical and Reformed Church, Latty Iowa, 1853-1953 is the following description of the language tension in the Zion Church:
"1906 - Membership reached 135 and then began to wane. It was a time of transition from German and its attendant customs. Up to now the pastor had acted as Sunday School Superintendent. The Church Council sat in a group near the pulpit. The men sat on one side of the aisle and the women on the other. The transition was far too slow. The Sunday School was reorganized in English except for one class."
"1916 - Brought Rev. Abele direct from the seminary without German accent and interest increased. A young peoples' society flourished for a time. The Rebecca Class with about 22 young ladies as membbers with Carrie Pitcher as their leader was formed. It was a valued organizatino for a number of years."
