Thus I assume she is a daughter of a Geines brother-in-law. The only Geines brother we have a record of (name only) is Phillip. Curtis, Nebraska gives us some place else to search. Found Phillip C., his wife M. Elizabeth and children Verona, Lora Alice, Oliver and Nina in various census, marriage, burial records in Curtis, Nebraska. Found John C. Brooks and Verona P.

| 1513 | MRS. JOHN BIERMAN Mrs. Louise Bierman, nee Berning, was born March 18, 1859, in Halle, Westphalia, Germany. She lost both her parents before she was seven years of age and at the invitation of her uncle, Mr. Krueger, emigrated to this country in company with the Buhrmester family when she was nine years old. She was made a member of the family in the home of her uncle and there grew to womanhood. She was united in marriage to John Biermann on February 18, 1877, who with his bride moved to a farm near Centralia and thirty-one years ago settled on the farm which has been their home until the death of teh wife. Nine children were born to this union of whom one son, Benjamin, departed this life in October, 1918, at Camp Granat. The surviving children are: Louis, Edward, Arthur, Albert, Harry and James of Centralia, Mrs. Walter Dueker of Huegely and Margaret of Centralia. The departed was converted and became a member of the German M. E. Church at North Prairie at the age of fifteen years, continuing to be a true child of God during her entire life. After moving away from the vicinity of this church Mr. and Mrs. Bierman affiliated with the Hoyleton Church. About two years ago she was taken seriously ill and has been in delicate health since that time. She passed away Friday. Funeral services were held Sunday, Rev. E. Hemke officiating, and interment was made in Elmwood Cemetery at Centralia. The pallbearers were Cleve, Richard and Amos Bierman, James Jones, Earl Garrison, and Ed Norton. Flower girls were Bertha and Erma Garrison, Stella Norton, Rosa Jones and Marguerite Dinkelman. Never shall you be forgotten, Never from our memories fade, A loving heart will always linger Around the grave where you are laid. The Lord said, you have finished; Come up higher, mother, dear, You have won a crown in heaven for the pains you suffered here. Louise Berning was born on the 18th of March 1859 in the little village Hille, Westphalia, Germany. Both of her parients died before she was 7 years old. An uncle, who lived in the United States, sent for the little orphan, and she came across the Atlantic with the family of Mr. Burmeister. In the home of her uncle Krueger she found a hearty welcome and was brot up as a member of the family. On reaching a sufficient age she worked for several families, longest for Mr. Louis Huck of North Prairie. There she met and married John Biermann (Feb. 1877) with whom she has jointly born the trials, sorrows and joys of life for 43 years. After marriage they moved into the neighborhood of Centralia, living at different places until they moved to the home from which she now has gone to her heavenly home. Mrs. Bierman became the mother of nine children. One of them, Ben, gave his life in the service of his country during the war. The other eight are living and mourn tthe death of a beloved mother. they are: Louis, Edward, Arthur, Albert, Harry, James, Ida (Mrs. Walter Dueker) and Margaret. In her girlhood she lived close to the German M. E. Church of North Prairie in families and among members of that church. It was but natural that she should attend that Sunday School and Church, receive catethelical instruction and was eventually examined and received as a member of the church. In her 15th or 16th year she was soundly converted and has, since then, been a consistent and faithful member of the church of her choice and a true follower of her Saviour. This has been no easy matter for her since she lived far from her church and had the core of a large family and home which made it impossible to be a regular attendant of the services and have the blessings and encourgement of such communions. Yet, in spite of this it can be truthfully said: she has kept the faith. Her ________ faith made her uncomplaining in her sickness, knowing that her Lord would put no greater burden on her than she could bear. Even in the hours of her sickness she was ever thotful of others willing to help in some way if she could. About two years ago Mrs. Biermann took seriously ill and at different times her death was expected almost hourly. Lately she has suffered greatly, but greater yet has been her faith and the sustaining grace of God in whom she trusted. She left a clear testimony of her salvation to her dear ones and all her friends. On the evening of the 61s6 anniversary of her birth, March 18, 1920 God took her home. Beside the children names above, Mrs. Biermann leaves her life's companion who has been striken by a fatal disease and who may soon follow her to the home above. With him 13 grandchildren look today upon the calm face of grandmother for the last time in this world; one half brother, other relatives and a host of friends. But we all look, tho with tear-dimmed eyes toward the heaven which is her eternal abode and which we, by the help of God, hope to share some day. | BERNING MARY LOUISE (I09456)

| 1515 | My father, Rudie, was born 21 Aug 1900 at the home of his parents. The date is not sure since the birth certificate was not filed properly. His father died when Rudie was about two years of age. His father's death may have been related to a fall in a barn because he had severe head pains for years after the fall. Rudie's mother Sophie was allowed to stay on the farm and did for a while. As the boys grew up they chose not to farm. Sophie met a man, formerly from Hoyleton, who courted her. After their marriage the family moved to Scott City, MO (near Lebanon). Once there Sophie took care of her two youngest boys, Leonard and Rudie and also her new husband's family. By this time Millie and Paul were married and stayed in Hoyleton. The boys lived with their mother in Missouri for a while but first Leonard moved back to Hoyleton to stay with Millie and her husband Albert Krughoff. Shortly after, when he was 13, Rudie moved to Millie's home too. They both liked Millie and Albert Krughoff's home. Albert was more than a father figure to Rudie; He was father--and Albert never complained. My father met Emilie at church. They married and 1928 I came. We were on a farm near Hoyleton. Dad did some farming in summer and taught country school. It was depression time. All the boys had been to Elmhurst. It was runby the Evangelical Church (now UCC) and was an inexpensive place to go to be educated. My father was a night time worker at the Chicago Tribune and also had other jobs while in school. I don't believe Sophie helped any money wise. She died when I was eight. She had cancer and the operation in those days was very crude. Sophie had a few of her things left--so--Paul and Rudie went to have things settled. They filled their car with trinkets and quilts and came home. I'm sure she was brought back to a grave in Hoyleton to be buried with her first husband. We never saw mauch of the step-family she raised in Missouri. I alwayhs had a feeling the step-brothers weren't members of the "good-guys club". Music ruled the Brinks; all the boys played instruments and Millie loved to play the piano and organ. My father had the Venedy Band, New Minden Band, Nashville Band and other school bands such as Hoyleton. He also had a drum and bugle corp for Nashville. He was an avid collector of Indian relics. He hunted many in the area of Hoyleton and New Minden. Kent, my oldest son, now has his large collection. The house he bought in New Minden gave him the privilege of planting all kinds of shrubs, trees and a large vegetable and flower garden. He spent many hours in the garden. Dad's leaving us in 1976 left mother in a town where she needed transportation and she couldn't drive a car. She came to live with my family in Columbia, Illinois in July 1976 and departed her life at the Waterloo Nursing Home on 17 Jan 1991. She had been there only 12 weeks. by daughter, Betty Brink as found in Brink/Beckmeyer Family History 1999 | BRINK CHARLES RUDOLPH (I02737)

| 1537 | Newspaper article probably in a Washington, Indiana newspaper or perhaps a San Diego, California paper. LOCAL MAN EXPERIENCES 'LIFE AFTER DEATH' by Ron Arvin "There is a great sense of peace, no fear, no confusion...I never felt so good.." Thus have many persons described what happens during the near-death experience. They tell of a sense of floating, a feeling of release of all pain, a great white light, and some even extend their experiences into five stages. Edwin Gines of Washington knows first hand of earlier phases of the experiences which researchers have found common in hundreds of individuals who have approached a "clinical" death. Dr. Kenneth Ring, a professor of psychology at the University of Connecticut, from interviews with 102 men and women, has concluded that the near-death phenomenon is, indeed, a new stage of growth, a spiritual rebirth that permits an individual a new zest and appreciation of life. Gines and his wife Fern will attest to that theory. Gines' experience began Dec. 19, 1978 and in succeeding weeks he was to undergo not only the near-death moments but other traumatic conditions which were partially concealed from him by his family until after he was recovering from open heart surgery. On a visit in San Diego, the Gines' daughter, Gaetana Kratzer, convinced her father he did not appear well and insisted he enter Mercy Hospital and Medical Center for tests. These tests determined that while he had experienced no pain, he had in fact suffered a serious heart attack. On December 29 Ed was feeling great, preparing to leave the hospital, when suddenly severe pain hit his chest and arm. He reached for the call button and remembered hearing the nurse answer immediately. It later developed the instant response by the nurse and the fortuitous proximity fo two doctors (who were planning to visit Gines before his dismissal) saved his life. Within a short time he had electric shock...back to life. "I had a feeling of floating higher and higher," Gines recalls. "It was beautiful and the most peaceful situation you could imagine. I was so happy and peaceful. When the electric shock treatment took effect, I kept asing the doctors...why?...why? They wanted to know what I meant. My answer was: Why did you bring me back? I was feeling so good, so peaceful, and now I'm back and feeling all this pain." If one is to follow documented cases (i.e. Kubler-Ross On Dearh and Dying) Gines was through the first stages - a feeling of incredible peacefulness, something which has no equal; then the feeling of detachment, of floating out-of-the-body. Some accounts have told of being like a spectator, watching nurses and doctors working over their bodies, as if from a balcony looking down, Gines' experience was abruptly terminated by the electric shock treatment. Other stages, described by some persons but not by Gines, include the peaceful movement into a tunnel-like opening; then a brilliant gold-yellow light, very warm but never hurtful to the eyes; and finally a distinct calling, not necessarily a voice, in which one is told "Your life is not finished...go back." Linked with the distinct impressions of the rising higher and higher was the appearance when he regained consciousness of the the hospital chaplain, Sister Mary La Salellette, of the Sisters of Mercy, whose kindly face, enshrouded in white, became Ed's"guardian angel" from there on. Two more heart attacks the same day kept Ed in the hospital's intensive care for 26 days, then he was released to be prepared for open heart surgery. The family kept from him many of the details of a shooting at a school where his daughter Gaetana, a speech therapist, was teaching. A teen-ager killed the school principal and custodian, and wounded eight children. Ed did not know for weeks Gaetana had gone from her room to drag inside an injured child, and then huddled over the child in life-saving efforts. Later the door through which she had exited was found riddled with bullets. Finally, after he was recovering from surgery, he had to return home early because of the death of his father. The religious aspects of near-death experiences are also being examined by scholars who say one's own religious beliefs affect their interpretation of the near-death moments. "It is a faith-strengthening thing. Certainly we do not want to die, but we do not fear death," Ed and Fern say. This is the conclusion of many whom scholars have interviewed: They say what they have experienced will come again and their time has simply been postponed. Researchers are looking into all facets, such as could these stories have been induced by anesthesia, but as in Gines case, anesthesia sometimes has not been used at the time of the experience. Ed and Fern have recalled their own experiences with anesthesia and Ed says the sensation is not the same as the experience in San Diego. There is a picture of Ed and Fern Gines sitting on a couch sharing a newspaper. The caption reads: Ed and Fern Gines read a newspaper account of a shooting in a San Diego school where their daughter was teaching. Ed was in a San Diego hospital at the time and almost died of a heart attach, experiencing the first stage of "life after death." | GINES EDWIN CARSON (I00447)

OWENS DIES FOLLOWING BRIEF ILLINESS Jersey Street Woman Died in Hospital of Peritonitis. Mrs. Veda Elmira Owens, 40, wife of Charles W. Owens of Jersey Street, died this morning at 5 o'clock at the Daviess County Hospital where Thursday she submitted to a major operation. Death of the woman was attributed to peritonitis, which had developed prior to the operation. She had been seriously ill since last Sunday, but had been in failing health for some time prior to that. Doctors this morning explained that starting last Sunday Mrs. Owens suffered severe cramping, then experienced locked bowels. Thursday noon an operation was performed, and two of the intestines were found grown togethr. Further probing revealed that a piece of toothpick had been swallowed by Mrs. Owens at some time, and that it had worked through one of the intestines, causing a sore which reslted in the intestines growing together and causing the fatal illness. Peritonitis developed to cause ehr death early today. Born in Stone County, Missouri, on September 1, 1895, the deceased was a daughter of Francis Marion Taylor and Jane Philbert Taylor. The father survives and lives at Monett, Missouri, but the mother preceded the daugter in death. Mrs. Owens was married to Charles W. Owens on December 25, 1910, and three children were born to the union, one dying in infancy and the other two being survivors. They are Mrs. Lorene Gines of Washington and Lucille Owens, at home. Brothers and sisters surviving are Lafe and Otis Taylor, Mrs. Lavina Martin of Waco, Texas, Mrs. Velie Stewart of Jenkins, Missouri, and Mrs. Dollie Dummitt of Monett, Missouri. Mrs. Owens was a member of the Free Methodist Church and of the Security Benefit Association of this city. Funeral arrangements are not complete. James A. Gill and Sons will have charge. IN MEMBORY OF MRS. CHARLES OWENS There's a seat empty in our church today For some one who has gone away, She has gone to be with Jesus In the land of perfect day. "Tis our dear Sister Owens who we all loved so well She has said good night to us here, To go to a better world than this "Tis where they know no fear. She has gone from this world of sorry Gone from this world of pain She will never have sickness or sorrow Or heartaches ever again. I'm sure she's happy in Heaven Where Jesus, the Lamb is the Light, Where never cometh the darkness For everything's lovely and bright. She is feasting with Jesus in heaven Resting beneath the green tree She is looking toward the Pearly Gates Wathing for you and for me. Although our hearts were saddened When we said good night to her here Our hearts will also be gladdened When we say good morning up there.

You are gone, Mother, but not forgotten Never will they memory fade, Sweetest thought shall ever linger Around the grave where you are laid.

For the Master whom we follow In his word has plainly said, That you're only sweetly sleeping Though you're numbered with the dead. The stars are dimly shining Upon your new-made grave, Where you sleep without waking You were loved but could ot save. Sweet adn peaceful be your slumber Forget you I can never But God called you home, He knows best, His will be done forever. F. M. Taylor O. L. Taylor L. S.
