  _P_CCINFO 2-14330 From THE COLUMBUS (NE.) JOURNAL, November 16, 1910- RICKERT--Mrs. Henry Rickert, aged sixty-four years, two months and five days, died at her home on East Eleventh street, Monday, death being due to diabetes. Katrina Marie Wilkie was born in Oldenburg, Germany, September 9, 1846. In 1869 she came to America and Colfax county, to the home of her uncle, J.H. Lutjelueschen, thirteen miles northeast of this city. In 1870 she was married to Henry Rickert, and they moved to the old home farm in Bismark township, which they occupied until about three years ago, when they moved to this city. Mrs. Rickert was the mother of eight children, two of whom died in infancy and two sons, Rudolph and Adolph, who died after reaching manhood. Those living are William, who resides on the old homestead, Mrs. Louis Grotelueschen of Columbus, and Ida and Louisa at home. Her husband, Henry Rickert, also survives her. Mrs. Rickert has been sick for some time and of late her ailment had become worse, so that death was not altogether unexpected. Funeral services will be held at the home Thursday at 10:30 a.m., and be conducted by Rev. Mueller of the Shell Creek church, and burial will be in the Shell Creek cemetery.
