Note: Henry Warnken Died Very Suddenly Monday Afternoon at 7 O'Clock

News of the death of Henry Warnken of the Freyburg section came as a great shock to his many friends throughout this entire county, for it came so suddenly and unexpected. This good man had enjoyed good health and had gone about his work up until a short time before his death Monday afternoon at his home about seven o�clock. Mr. Warnken was suddenly stricken late Monday evening and within a short time the life that had been so useful was closed to the world, and the soul crossed over into that great unknown. Thus we are brought to realize more thoroughly that in the midst of life we are in death. He was an honorable, upright man, honest in all his dealings with his fellow men, a good, kind and loving husband and father, thus nothing better could be said of man. Mr. Warnken was fifty-seven years old at the time of his death, born and reared in the Freyburg section, where he spent his entire life, and we have never heard an ill word spoken of him. He was industrious and accumulated a large sum of this world�s goods, being a large land owner in the Freyburg section, and raised an honorable family of boys and girls. He is survived by his wife and six children, three sons, Henry and Edwin of Lubbock, and Herbert at home; three daughters, Mrs. Alfred Jochen of Freyburg, Mrs. Herbert Hertel of Bryan, and Miss Viola at home; three brothers, Willie of Freyburg, August of Poth, and Ben of La Grange; three sisters, Mrs. Willie Umlang of Freyburg, Mrs. Emil Kiesling of O�Quinn, and Mrs. E. B. Miller of Schulenburg; besides many other relatives and friends who deeply mourn the untimely passing of this splendid man. Funeral services were held Thursday morning at ten o�clock, Rev. Kleinknecht, Methodist pastor, conducting the services. Hundreds were present to pay their last respects and the grave was banked high with beautiful flowers, all attesting to theesteem in which this man was held. The entire community extends sincere sympathy to the bereaved ones. Schulenburg Sticker. [The La Grange Journal, Thursday, September 27, 1928]

People Who Come to and Go From La Grange For a Visit

In attendance upon the obsequies of Mrs. Lizzie Huebner Sunday, and coming from outside points, were: Hermann Warnken and family of Yoakom, Geo. Huebner of Bay City, Mrs. E. Richers of Bay City, Edw. Warnken of Houston, Mr. and Mrs. Forrest McMillan of Ballinger. [The La Grange Journal, April 10, 1924]

Mrs. Lizzie Huebner

Friday morning Mrs. Lizzie Huebner, wife of George Huebner, died at the family residence on Colorado street, following an illness that had lasted for a period of months. Mrs. Huebner, it may be said, came to her death as a relief from much suffering. Devoted to her children, her departure will leave a vacancy, such as time alone shall heal. We deeply sympathize with the husband and the sons and daughters; death comes into a home when we would strive to defeat its approach, but as the flowers bud and bloom in Spring, and the leaves fall with the first blast from the North, so inevitably we must all pay the common debt. Mrs. Huebner, was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Warnken, early settlers of this section. For many years the family resided upon a farm several miles from La Grange, and only a few years since removed to La Grange. The separation or dissolution that has now occurred is the pang of sorrow that only those who have experienced a similar affliction can well appreciate. She enjoyed the great privilege, however, of seeing her children become grown, and to them was the comfort and solace that a dutiful child finds. Sunday afternoon they carried her remains to the new cemetery and placed them to rest; in attendance upon the last rites were sympathizing relatives and friends from the town and country and from neighboring cities. Beneath a bed of beautiful flowers she sleeps peacefully. The sympathy of the entire community is offered to the husband, the children, Misses Helen and Gussie, Louis and Mrs. Gus. Albrecht of La Grange, Geo. Huebner of Bay City, Mrs. Forrest McMillan, Ballinger. [The La Grange Journal, April 10, 1924]

[The La Grange Journal, Thursday, April 26, 1928]

Old Time Settler Dies at Waco, Texas

Mr. Wm. Warnken, an old time settler of this section, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. S. Rabel in Waco, Thursday night of last week, and the remains were brought here for interment in the Odd Fellows� Cemetery Saturday afternoon, the funeral service being held from the Lutheran Church at 3 p.m., Rev. Paul Piepenbrok, local pastor, officiating. Mr. Warnken had been a resident of this section for many many years. He farmed for a long time on his home place, a few miles southeast of Weimar. His health failing him a short time since, he went to the home of his daughter, Mrs. Rabel in Waco, and there lingered until Death came to his relief. His death, we are informed followed a severe attack of influenza. Wm. Warnken was born in Fayette county, near the Bluff, Dec 1, 1853 and was 74 years, 4 months and 19 days of age at the time of his death. He was united in marriage to Miss Minetta Kahlden in 1872. To this union six children were born. Two died in infancy, while four survive. The surviving children are as follows: Mrs. J.H. Connor of Houston, Mrs. S. S. Rabel of Waco, Mr. Henry Warnken of Paducah, Texas, and Mr. Edmund Warnken of Temple. Also surviving him are fifteen grandchildren and fifteen great grandchildren. Active pall bearers were as follows: F. E. Leidolf, Emil F. gold, O. Hilden, Jno C. Hubbard, H. Birkmann and Ed Rabel. Honorary pall bearers named by the family were as follows: Henry Guenther, Chas.Fahrenthold, F. J. Nitschmann, Fritz Thumann, Henry Seifert and John H. Brooks. Mr. Warnken, as stated above had lived in this section for many years. He was a man of engaging personality, a hustling, rustling, successful farmer and business man, and although well along in years, continued his activities in business up to within a few months of his demise. Many friends join us in extending sincere sympathy to his bereaved ones. [Weimar Mercury, April 27, 1928]
