From contributor Alicelth: His death certificate says he was 67 years, 8 months and 25 days of age. But the obituary gives a good deal more specific information. I'll type it up below. Barnhardt Lahrman, whose death was briefly mentioned two weeks ago, was born at Hilter, German, in 1824, and came to America in 1842, landing at New York and went from there to Cincinnati, where he remained five years and then came to Brownstown, where he worked for Dr Rust at the poor farm for two years and then returned to Cincinnati, where he followed teaming, for several years. He then returned to this county and settled at Enchretown and followed farming and resided in this county ever since. Six children, all grown, survive him, viz: Henry, George, Frank, John, Sophia and Mrs. Lizzie Spray. The funeral services were held at the family residence, four miles west of Brownstown, Thursday, September 29, 1901, Eld. G.M. Shutts officiating, after which the remains were laid to rest in te Heighton Hill cemetery near Medora. I created a memorial for his wife Henrietta Lahrman. They were married in 1850 - probably in Cincinnati. BTW - He was born in Hilter, Germany - looked it up and it's a municipality in District Osnabruck, Lower Saxony, Germany. Contributor Jan: BARNEY LARHMAN, farmer and stock raiser, Brownstown Township, was born in Hanover, Germany, January 1, 1829, is a son of Barney and Maria (Gurker) Larhman [Lahrman], who were also natives of Germany and immigrated to Jackson County in about 1847, where the former died in 1849, the latter in 1876. Our subject passed one year on a farm in Jackson County. He then went to Cincinnati, where he followed draying and teaming for six years, in which business he accumulated enough money to purchase eighty acres of land in Jackson County. By hard work and good management he has added to this farm until he now possesses a fine farm of 500 acres. Mr. Larhman is also an extensive dealer in stock and possesses some very fine breeds. In1850 he married Henrietta Krineharger a native of Germany, born In March, 1830. There are seven living children by this marriage: Henry, born August 9, 1852; George, born May 23, 1854;,Lizzie, born September 21, 1856 (now the wife of John Spray); Sophia, born December 5, 1858; Frank, born March 11, 1862; Addie, born November 28, 1864 (is the wife of M. Goss); John, born September 9, 1866. Mr. and Mrs. Larhman are members of the Lutheran Church. He is a stanch Democrat, is a splendid example of a self-made man, and shows what energy and determination will do when properly directed. - History of Jackson County, Indiana by Brant and Fuller, Chicago, 1886, Pages 618 - 619
