(October 14, 1833 - November 23, 1923) - [The Columbus Daily Telegram, November 23, 1923] John Henry Lutjeluschen, 90 years old, who had the distinction of being one of the oldest living pioneers of Platte county, died at his old home farm on Shell creek, 13 miles northeast of Columbus, at 5:30 a.m. today. His death was caused by pneumonia and followed an illness of only two days. Up to the time he was stricken this week he enjoyed exceptionally robust health for one of his extreme age and retained the use of his faculties to a rare degree. Funeral services will be conducted by Rev. Hugo Welchert at the Shell Creek Lutheran church at 1:45 p.m. Monday, following brief services at the home at 1 p.m. Burial will be made in the cemetery near the church. Mr. Lutjeluschen was born in Oldenburg, Germany, Oct. 14, 1833, and observed his 90th birthday anniversary just a month ago. In 1869 he brought his wife and family, and his aged parents, to America, coming directly to Columbus. Arriving here on Aug. 2, of that year, he homesteaded in the Shell creek valley and there he made his home throughout the 54 years which have ensued. He is the last of the old settlers of that community, with exception of Gerhold Loseke, who is a younger man, having come here as a boy. Mr. Lutjeluschen's parents, who died here many years ago, were the oldest of the settlers who came from Germany to Platte county, both of them having been born in the 18th century. Laboring steadfastly through the years of hardship and privation incident to pioneer life, Mr. Lutjeluschen not only acquired a competency, but lived to see the barren prairie transformed into the garden spot of the world. Mrs. Lutjeluschen, who, before her marriage was Anna Maria Borchers, of Oldenburg, Germany, passed away June 2, 1900. Two sons, George and Henry, also preceded Mr. Lutjeluschen in death. Surviving members of the immediate family are three sons and three daughters--Fred and Louis Luschen, who reside on the home farm; John R. Luschen, prominent Columbus business man; Mrs. William J. Voss, residing northeast of Columbus; Mrs. Frank Adams, of Yoder, Wyo., and Mrs. Henry Leflers, of Creston, Neb. Mr. and Mrs. Adams arrived this afternoon from Wyoming to attend the funeral.
