John Bahr of Lodgepole, Nebraska.
He was born in 1876 in Germany and came to the United States as a young teen. He married Bertha Goettsch in the 1890s. Bertha was born December 8, 1880. They had 8 children, Hank, Edna, Eldora, Alta, Elsie, John and Florence. Gertrude died at birth.
They lived in or around Carroll County, Manning, Iowa.

I'm occasionally adding the actual scanned image of the obituary I make using my VERY expensive - large commercial scanner, and/or also other articles about the deceased person that were published in the Manning Monitor.
I want to also comment about people who are taking my obituaries, pictures, and/or other articles about a person/family and posting them on other websites.
You do NOT have permission or the right to do this - you are stealing my historical work.
Buy your own scanning equipment, pay for memberships to other commercial websites, and spend decades working on your local history like I have - then you'll understand why I'm making these comments!

Thank you for your attention to this matter - Dave Kusel
