The funeral was held, Wednesday at Niobrara from the Episcopal church. Rev. Marcus Brown officiating. Ionic Lodge #87 AF &AM of Niobrara conducted the service at the grave in L'eau Qui Court cemetery. Henry Jacob Blankenfeld was born in West Prussia, Germany, April 12, 1843. He came to Illinois in the fall of 1865. September 23, 1869 he was married to Miss Marie Eigler in Genesee, Illinois. Fifteen children were born to this union, of which thirteen are living: Mrs. John Mayberry, John, Charles, Fred, Frank, Henry, Mrs. John Bourn, Mrs. Chester Farnsworth, Harry, Willie, Alvina, Clara and Robert. All were present at the bedside, but Mrs. Bourn, Mrs. Farnsworth and Fred. He is also survived by his wife, two brothers in Illinois, a brother in Iowa and one in Germany. His parents were Lutheran and Mr. Blankenfeld retained the same faith. The family settled on a homestead 12 miles east of Niobrara in 1885, where Mr. Blankenfeld passed away, Monday morning, May 15, 1911 at 7:20. The boys have followed in the industrious and prosperous ways of their father, until the family is now one of the largest land owners in Knox county. Mr. Blankenfeld has a host of friends, who admired his energy and honesty. He was quick to resent a wrong, but worked hard to accomplish anything he thought right. One of the prominent pioneers of Knox county has passed away. The family has the sympathy of the whole community in their sorrow.--Niobrara Tribune The Creighton News 25 May 1911
