Ruth Althea Nolting was born on a farm near Baxter, IA, on March 2, 1918, to Benjamin and Elizabeth Sophie (Stock) Hansmeier; they moved to the Waukon, IA area when she was about seven years old. Ruth was christened on May 26, 1918, in Baxter and confirmed at Zion Reformed Church (now Zion United Church of Christ) in Waukon on March 20, 1932. Her mother passed away when Ruth was 15. Despite having to drop out of school to take care of her four siblings, she continued her studies and was known for her organizational skills and penmanship while working with her husband in his law practice. Ruth and Martin Nolting were married June 22, 1938, at her parents’ home in Waukon and the following year they moved into the home she had lived in for 78 years on 5th Avenue in Waukon. Getting back to their farming roots, they had a large garden and various animals at their house over the years including chickens and rabbits. She was active in the church and enjoyed quilting, sewing, traveling, and fishing with family. An avid sports fan, she followed her children’s and grandchildren’s activities and also followed all the Iowa college sports. She also enjoyed visiting with her many friends.
