Hi Mona,
Henry Nuhring that I have as my grandfather's brother was born August 26,
1883. Heinrich Dietrich Nuehring born August 26, 1883 Sponsors for Bapt.
Dietrich Buchholtz, Heinrich Wedeking, Heinrich Nuhring.
The other photo, I think is my great grandfather with his first wife???
Only reason I think that is when comparing the youngest son Edward with that
photo, they look very much alike. But I could very well be wrong.
Here are the obits of the Frederick (b about 1825) and Louise (b
about 1833) Nuhring.
Heinrich Friedrich Philipp Nuhring, born in lawful wedlock son of the ..
farmer Heinrich Nuhring of Gross-Varlingen and his also deceased spouse,
Dorothee, nee Dettmer, was born on the second day of January of the year one
thousand eight hundred twenty six (January 2, 1826) and baptized on the 8th.
Note
From Husum Church records
Fred Neuhring died Sunday, February 8. His funeral was held on Thursday of
last week at the German Lutheran Church, south of Lytton, and burial took
place in the cemetery adjacent. He was born in Hanover, Germany, in 1826.
He immigrated to America and settled in Clayton county, Iowa, at first,
moving to Sac county in 1865 at the close of the Civil War. He was a kind
man to his family and a good neighbor. He leaves a wife, well on in years
and eleven children. A good man has gone to his reward.

Translated from the original German obituary
Hello Georgia, ( a german friend translated this for me)
what an interesting obit! Where did you find it. You will find many
informations on Mrs Luise Nühring and her family.
In the last number we had to report from the death (going home) of Mrs Maria
Dettmann, wife of Mr Heinrich Dettmann and today it is a death again, that
forces us to write. At that day, when we laid Mrs Dettmann to the rest, died
after an illness of only 2 days Mrs Luise Nühring, nee Bahlmann and was
buried last wednesday, at 15. january, beside her husband, Mr Heinrich
Nühring, who died at 8. february 1903. From the résumé of the deceased it is
to inform: Mrs Luise Nühring, nee Bahlmann was born as the third child of
the couple Friedrich Bahlmann and Maria nee Wacherdorff at 20. august 1834
in Schessinghausen, Schleswig-Holstein, Germany. In the juvenile age of not
yet 18 years, in May 1852 she reached her hand to her husband Heinrich
Nühring to the marriage-knot and emigrated with him and their oldest
children in the year of 1865 to America. At first they settled down in
Guttenberg, Clayton County, Iowa and then moved to Butler County in 1870,
where they acquired a certain prosperity, so that they could purchase their
own piece of land. That happened in 1881, the year when they came to our
county. At first they lived in the near of Early, then moved into our
community, into that they let admit themselves in 1888. Heinrich Nühring and
wife belonged to the regular church visitors, so long as they were healthy.
With the years of the age they often to their regret had to do without the
visit of our public worship. Widdow Nühring often was ill in earlier years,
but the last two years were better, she could enjoy of a satisfying
well-being. The more unexpected came to all of us the message from her
sudden death as a result of an influenca, that affected heart and liver and
caused her death in the morning of the 11. january 1908. The deceased leaves
from the children, that god gave here during a long over 50 years lasting
marriage-live, 6 sons and 5 daughters, all except of one son are married.
Four of her sons are living here, that is to say Wilhelm, Karl, Louis and
August Nühring, all the four as entitled to vote members belonging to our
community. The oldest son Heinrich, who also came to the burial, lives in
Butler county, the second son Fritz in Wisconsin. From the 5 married
daughters: Mrs August Ehlers, Mrs wm?Buchholz, Mrs Heinrich Ripke, Mrs
Heinrich Albinger and Mrs August Helmbrecht live the first and the both last
ones in this area, while Mrs wm? Buchholz with her husband from Jackson,
Minnesota, and Mrs. H. Ripke with her husband from Storm Lake, Iowa came to
the burial of her mother. The deceased was grandmother of 27 grandchildren
and greatgrandmother of 4 greatgrandchildren. While crisping frost and sharp
northwind we laid the generally popular "mother" Nühring at the 15. january
at midday to the last rest, that she found on the cemetery of the
evangelical-lutheran St. Immanuel-community in Coon Valley Tmp., Sac County,
Iowa. As coffin-cloth-carriers? there were: August and Wilhelm Hilmer, Aug.
Rösele, Heinrich Hinrichs, Hermann and Joh.(ann) Kust.
Note Schessinghausen, Hannover, Germany is correct. Not Schleswig-Holstein
