Mrs. Lutze was born in Prussia on the Rhine in 1849 and when she was two years old her parents left Germany for America and months later located in the southern part of this county. In 1869 she was married to Edward Lutze, a cobbler, and 11 years later they purchased a 120 acre farm that became the Lutze homestead west of Cleveland in the town of Centerville.
They were the parents of seven children, six of whom survive.
When the Lutzes retired in 1908 they built a home on Highway 149 where they lived until Mr. Lutze's death in 1927. She lived seven years with her son Oscar in Cleveland and since with her daughter, Mrs. Lorfeld.
Survivors are three sons, Edward and Oscar of Cleveland, John, on the homestead; three daughters, Mrs. John Lorfeld of Cleveland, Mrs. David Lorfeld of Spring Valley, Mrs. Arthur Rieck, of this city; 16 grandchildren, 40 great grandchildren and four great-great-grandchildren.
