Funeral services were held Sunday in the Zalmona church in Ludlow and burial was in the cemetery nearby. Mr. Nolting was born in Germany and came to Ludlow township when he was a small child. He is survived by two sons, Calvin and Albert Nolting and two daughters, Mrs. Arthur Siekmeier of Forest City and Mrs. Kenton Felland of Hanlontown; also survining are a brother, Herman, Waukon and 15 grandchildren. NOTE: As usual, the newspaper that this was clipped from is not mentioned but I assume it to be the Postville, Iowa paper, and I have it hand-dated 1947. Anton parents were Fred and Dorthea (Burger) Nolting from Germany. My notes say that Fred and Dorthea came to America with Anton and Herman when Herman was 5 years old. Herman lived the rest of life in Allamakee County. Herman was born Sept. 7, 1878.
