Obituary from "Der Nord Westen", June 30, 1892.
Death on Sat. evening after a long illness, of Mr. Charles Luling of Manitowoc.
He was born 06 Oct. 1830 in Minden, Westphalia, and came to America in 1849. He settled for a while in Chicago, then other cities in the State of Illinois, eventually settling in Fox Lake, Wisconsin, where he married Miss Stark in 1856.
In 1859 he came to Manitowoc and was employed in the store of the Barnes Bros. In 1865, the First National Bank was organized here, and he was taken on as cashier, a position he held until his death. After the death of his first wife, he married again in 1865 to Miss Mitchell with whom he had a happy life until her death in Feb. of this year. (The article describes his activity as a political activist, including mayor of Manitowoc.) In the recent past he suffered substantial pain from cancer, and so one must consider his death as a release.
"Manitowoc has lost a fine citizen in the death of Mr. Luling".
The funeral procession took place on Tuesday with a very large attendance. Interment was in Evergreen Cemetery.
