The funeral was held from St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Postville, Iowa on November 2. Rev. R.B. Garten officiating. Interment was made in the Postville Cemetery, Postville, Iowa. Karl Johann Friederich Christian Martens was born in Vorwerk, Kreis Greifswald, near Stralsrund, Prussia on October 30, 1847. He came to this country in September 1884. He was first married to Johanna Maria Sophia Albrecht. To this union seven children were born, two of whom preceded him in death, as did his wife, who passed away some 20 years ago. Mr. Martens was again married in 1916 to Anna Deters. She survives him. To them were born 2 sons, Charles Martens of Postville, Iowa and Fred Martens of near Waukon, Iowa; and 3 daughters, Mrs. Bertha Bartels of Castalia, Iowa, Mrs. Anna Reifstake of Oelwein,, Iowa, and Mrs. Wilhelmina Baars of Postville, Iowa; 33 grandchildren and 29 great-grandchildren; a brother, Theodore Martens of Saratoga, Iowa and a sister, Mrs. Henry Heins of Postville, Iowa also survive him. (The children listed are actually the children from his first marriage.) For eighteen years Mr. Martens was engaged in farming in this vicinity but for the past thirty years he has been a resident of Postville, Iowa. He was an honest, hardworking man, and died respected by all who knew him.
