She was the mother of eight children, two of whom have gone before her to the realms of the blest, six remain who, with their father, mourn the loss of a faithful wife and loving mother. She leaves an aged mother, eighty-five years old, who has made her home with the family during the past ten years. Deceased had two brothers living in Chicago, and one sister whose home is at Horton, Kansas, and who came to attend the funeral. Mr. Kathrineberg came to Republic county with his family in 1871, and has lived here continuously ever since. Mrs. K. was a member of the Lutheran church in her native country but never united with any church organization since coming to America.
