German Evangelical Lutheran Church
Record of Funerals
1900-1914


 

This church was organized July 4th, 1897 by a group of Germans who had come to Laurens from Boscobel, Wisconsin.  The church building was dedicated 14 Sep 1900 and the first funeral held was that of baby Peterson the very next day.  I am not sure what happened to the building that was supposedly 32 X 48 when built.  I have been searching for a photo so please let me know if you have one! ~Karen
