Mrs. Elizabeth Loseke, wife of Henry Loseke, sr., died Monday evening at her home on West Tenth street, after being an invalid for over five years. Mrs. Loseke was born in Baden, Germany, in 1831, where she lived until about seventeen years ago, when she came to America and to Platte county in 1858, settling on Shell Creek, north of the city. Here she married Henry Loseke and resided there on Loseke Creek, until fourteen years ago, when she and her husband moved to this city. For the last five years she has been confined to her bed and during that time has been cared for by her aged husband. Nine children, John Kumpf, deceased, Mrs. Henry Grotelueschen, Mrs. Wm. Bucher, Louis Loseke, Mrs. L.H. Leavy and August Loseke, all of Platte county, and Mrs. Henry Loseke and Chas. Kumpf, of Colfax county, and Mrs. Wm. Reese of Kearney, besides her husband, who survive her. Mrs. Loseke was over 78 years of age, and nearly all her life had been spent in this county, coming here when it was almost a wilderness. Funeral services were held Wednesday at 2 p.m. from the German Lutheran church, Rev. Meissler conducting the services. The following old time friends of the deceased acting as pall bearers: Henry Roebuck, Julius Hoth, Henry Luers, John Doersch, John Saafeld and Dietrich Harms.
