Emma and Louis

THIRD GENERATION

23. Louis August KRUMWIEDE was born on 11 Aug 1887. He died on 29 Dec 1949 in Buckley, Iroquois County, Illinois. He was buried about 1 Jan 1950 in St. John's Lutheran Cemetery, Buckley, Illinois.(2) Section C, Row 16, Plot 42C

He was married to Emma DELAHR (daughter of Frederick DELAHR and Emma REDEKER) on 21 Aug 1910. (Her obituary gives the year of 1890. Obviously, much is wrong with the dates reported in her obituary.) Emma DELAHR was born on 8 Mar 1887. (Her obituary gives her year of birth as 1890.) She died on 2 Aug 1949 in Paxton, Ford County, Illinois. (50)

This obituary contains errors with regard to dates of birth and marriage - giving both in the same year, while family records indicate that NEITHER event took place in 1890.
