The deceased was born 24 Jun 1815 in Moritz (Moritzreuth), Kingdom of Bavaria, Germany. In 1841 (1842 on church record) she married her husband, Johann Braun, and in 1842 (or 1841) came to America with her husband and settled on a farm near Huff, Spencer County, where she remained until her death. The couple was blessed with 13 children, of which three children preceded her in death, and her husband followed them in 1868; she was a widow for 32 years. Her age she brought to 85 years, 6 months and 5 days and experienced 59 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. The mortal remains were given over on Monday in the Lutheran cemetery to the bowels of the earth with a large number of grief bearers in attendance. Pastor Koch led the funeral. May the earth be light on her who has fallen asleep. Johann Braun from Owensboro, Mrs. George Braun (Brown) from Rockport, Wilhelm Braun (Brown) from Parkville (?Pikeville), and Fritz Braun from Tell City were here on Monday at their brother Christoph Braun's to attend the burial of their mother. Note: Since the 10 children surviving at the time of their mother's death are well-documented, it is deducted that the three children who preceded her in death were: Christine (married Friedrich Traut), Johann A., and Peter. Following is a "New Boston obituary" reporting 12 children, but her Tell City obituary and son John W.'s death notice in an Owensboro, KY, newspaper states there were 13 children (see photo of article on John W. Braun's memorial page/photo#5). ---------------------------------------- News articles on file in the genealogy section at Rockport, IN, library - from Rockport Journal Weekly, 4 Jan 1901: New Boston reporter Mrs. Catharine Braun, aged 85 years, died Saturday morning after a lingering illness. She had lived in this community for many years, and raised a family of twelve children (actually 13), eight of whom survive her (actually 10). She was much loved and respected by all who knew her. Her remains were laid to rest in the Lutheran cemetery Monday afternoon. Rev. C.J. Koch conducted funeral services. Lamar reporter Grandma Braun died last Saturday at the home of her son, Christoph. The remains were laid to rest in the Lutheran cemetery Monday. The family has our sympathy.
