Ida Augusta, daughter of Gustav A. and Wilhelmina Anna (Fischer) Ress, was born September 22, 1900, on a farm in Lincoln Township, Audubon County, Iowa. She was baptized on October 14, 1900, into the Lutheran Faith.

Ida attended country school near her home until 1913 when the family moved to a farm in the Manilla area and she started attending the Manilla schools. She also attended Lutheran School in Manning making her home with her Grandpa and Grandma Fred Fischer through the school week. Following her confirmation on March 28, 1915, she returned home and helped with the work there.

On January 30, 1929, Ida was united in marriage with Herman Jochimsen. They farmed near Manilla for many years and then retired to their new home in Manning. They raised four children. Ida was a life long member of the Lutheran Church. Ida was interested in tatting, quilting and crocheting. She belonged to several card clubs.

Herman died in 1991 and Ida continued to live in their home until she had a fall in January of 1998. On February 1, 1998, she became a resident of the Manning Plaza Nursing Home. She died at the Manning Regional Healthcare Center on Tuesday, April 18, 2000, at the age of 99 years, 6 months and 26 days.
