Johannes LUTZ

                      DEATH PLACE Marshfield Township, Lincoln, Minnesota:  Died of a boil
that poisoned her blood.  Came to USA in 1869.  1870 Census Records
reports both of her parents were from Prussia.  She was living in
Rochester, Minn. in 1870.   The Trinity Lutheran church there shows her
to be very active and often listed as having taken communion.  She had
all her children confirmed there after moving to this place probably from
Voxfelde, Prussia.   Membership rolls listed her as being from
Mockelfelte (sp?) or Wachesfelte and being born in 1822.   Film #1379387.  Her father
was listed as Johannes Lutz.   Grandma Monner said she was very religious

records.

Grave marker at Tyler, Hope Lutheran Cemetary: Frau Wilhelmine
Hagedorn, geb. Lutz, geb. 26 Dec. 1823, gen.18 Dec. 1887.   Two other
graves near hers were her husband and a boy born after Helen.  (notes
from 1969 trip) One of the unmarked graves could have been her
daughter-in-law, Cathrine Clausen, who died in Marshfield and had her gravesite moved
after that township was dissolved.  William F. Sr. was a charter member
of the German church that is the mother church of the cemetary and
could have been instrumental in this.   Cathrine Clausen Hagedorn's
grave was not found in Marshfield, where the cemetary was disbanded.
