He attained the age of 64 years. Henry Ernest Jacob Fehlhafer, son of Henry Fehlhafer and wife, Louisa nee Rucksdaeschel, was born July 1, 1888 about seven miles west of Staplehurst. He was baptized on July 22 of the same year in Immanuel Lutheran church near Gresham by the Rev. Botthold Gruber. He attended the Christian day school of Immanuel Lutheran church, and after instruction in the Christian doctrine according to the teachings of the Lutheran Church, he was confirmed by the Rev. M. Zagel on March 23, 1902. On Dec. 11, 1913, he was united in marriage with Miss Alwine Barghahn, of Staplehurst in Zion Lutheran church at Marysville by the Rev. W. Rittamel. After his marriage he first continued to reside for a short time on the home place, but to the spring of 1915 he moved with his family to the farm immediately north of the Marysville church which he purchased at the time. Here he reared his family and became a faithful member of the local Lutheran church. He served the congregation in various ways especially as trustee and elder. Mr. Fehlhafer leaves to mourn his death his widow, Alwine; two sons, Walter and Melvin; one daughter, Mrs. Marcus Swanson; one son-in-law; one grandchild, Frances Swanson, all of Staplehurst; four brothers, Charles of Gresham, George of Utica, William of Staplehurst and Martin of Utica; five sisters, Mrs. Carl Pozehl of York, Mrs. Adolf Zwick of Lincoln, Mrs. Otto Pozehl of Thayer, Mrs. Oscar Zwlck of Seward, and Mrs. Emil Gade of Seward. Mr. Fehlhafer's health began to fail about five years ago. His condition gradually grew worse and developed into a severe heart ailment, which also was the cause of his death. After the noon meal he complained about a pain in the chest, and before medical aid could be summoned he fell asleep quietly. Funeral services were held on Friday, July 4 from the nearby Marysville church, conducted by the Rev. F. Bangert. Interment was in the local church cemetery. He married Alwine Barghahn 11 Dec 1913 in Marysville, Seward, Nebraska. It appears Marysville no longer exists.
