KAROLINE KOEHRING
Mrs. Karoline Koehring, 75, one of Kiel's former old-time and well-known residents, passed away at the home of her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. E. Hollensteiner, at Milwaukee on Monday.
Karoline Koehring, nee Miller, was born December 21, 1849, in Gros-Abersdorf, a. d. Rhine, Saxony, Germany. Here in the native village she received a sound elementary secular education, and also a thorough religious training. At the age of 18 years she came to America, where she found a home with a brother near Oconomowoc, Wis. Two years later she was united in marriage with William Koehring. They settled at Kiel, where they spent practically all of their active life. Here they reared their family of six children. Here also they united with and continued their membership in the Reformed church.
On October 27, 1903, Mrs. Kroehing lost her husband through death. In 1915 she moved to Milwaukee, where several of her children had established themselves. After the marriage of her youngest daughter, she made her home with her daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. E. Hollensteiner, where she remained for 8 years, until her death last Monday morning, and where she found every comfort and care, which tender filial affection could provide.
About two years ago her eyesight began to fail her. This was to her serious affliction, and a test of her faith. Yet as time went on she was able by the grace of God to take up the cross and to adjust herself to it and to fix her mind more and more on the objects of faith, the things not seen by human eyes. Trusting in her Savior, she has gone on to the clear vision of the better life.
She leaves her six children: Wm. J. Koehring, Mrs. E. Hollensteiner, Philip A. Koehring, Mrs. Geo. Miller and Mrs. G. A. Thompson, all of Milwaukee, and Mrs. Hugo Duecker of Algoma. Also 13 grandchildren and one great-grand-daughter, besides many other relatives and a host of friends. The remains were brought to Kiel on Wednesday and burial took place in the family lot in the Kiel cemetery in the afternoon. Rev. W. Rech officiated.
