Aunt Rickie is really Mrs. Ulreikie Duenow. Why the nickname? "I never had any children and I don't like to be called Grandma" she explains. So everyone who knows her well calls her Aunt Rickie. Born in Germany she and her husband, newlyweds, came to Iowa when she was 21. She remembers the days of chopping wood by hand and shelling corn with a hand sheller. And she remembers the afternoons holding a pole and line sitting on the bank of a river indulging in her favorite hobby --- fishing. Things are a bit quieter now. She spends her time reading the Bible, a church publication and the newspaper. But for a little while Sunday things will be exciting once more. There'll be a birthday party for Aunt Rickie at the Riley Rest Home all day where she lives. **** I wish my family had clipped the date on this article, too - but they didn't. To the best of my knowledge and family resources, she was born in 1858 and died on a Sunday, October 28, 1962

DREWELOW LIFE RESIDENT OF COUNTY DIES Always Active in Community Activities Herman DREWELOW died at 5:15 Wednesday morning at St. Joseph's hospital where he had been a patient 10 days. Death was due to complications of age as he was about to reach his 86th year. The eldest child of Gustav and Augusta DREWELOW, he was born July 9, 1861 on a farm near Lawler, and lived in Chickasaw county throughout his entire lifetime. Here he received his education in the rural schools. His parents moved from Lawler to land south and east of New Hampton where the DREWELOW families became prominent farmers. When one thinks of Boyd, they are reminded of the DREWELOW's who with other early settlers were instrumental in the establishing this little village. December 6, 1883 he was married to Miss Ernestine SCHULZ. The ceremony was performed in St. Paul's Lutheran church by Rev. WACHTEL. They located in the Boyd section and were actively interested in bringing the railroad through their farm, as he donated land for the right of way and worked on the grade, earning 50 cents a day. His wife worked equally as hard on this project as she boarded the workmen and managed at odd times to drive a team in building the grade. It was about three years before two small buildings were brought in on flat cars to serve as a freight depot and waiting room, later a new platform was added, along with other improvements and Boyd became one of the thriving little business towns of early years. For a few years after their marriage they retained their membership in St. Paul's Lutheran church. Later they united with St. John's Lutheran church near Boyd. In church and all other activities which went for the betterment of his community, Mr. DREWELOW gave unstintingly of his time and ability. Ten children were born to the couple: Julius, Herman, Emil, Albert and Reinhart of New Hampton and Boyd vicinity; William of Beardsley, Minnesota; and daughters, (Martha) Mrs. Frank ZIERATH, New Hampton; (Tena) Mrs. Herman SCHULZ, Grand Meadow, Minnesota; and (Elsie) Mrs. Fred VON BORSTEL, Hammond, Indiana. Other survivors are forty-four grandchildren and 47 great grandchildren. One son, Otto, died at the age of ten years and his wife preceded him March 16, 1944. Since he has made his home the greater part of the time with his son, Reinhart and family at the Herman DREWELOW home where he was cared for two weeks before being taken to the hospital. In all he was confined to his bed, but about one month. Three brothers and one sister also preceded him in death. The body was taken from the Perry Chapel to St. John's Lutheran church where Rev. Theo. FRITSCHEL conducted the funeral services at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday. Miss Laura Jean BETZER, soloist, was accompanied by Miss Eva KARNATZ as she sang the hymn, "Come To Me" and "Abide With Me". Burial was in the family plot in the Boyd Cemetery. Pallbearers were his six grandsons: Walter ZIERATH, Waterloo; Elgar SCHULZ, Grand Meadow, Minnesota; Gerald DREWELOW, Lawler; Walter and Robert DREWELOW of New Hampton and Earl DREWELOW, Boyd. Relatives and friends from away present at the funeral were: Mr. And Mrs. Wm.

DREWELOW Chickasaw Pioneer Dies Thursday The death of Mrs. Herman J. DREWELOW takes one of Chickasaw County's oldest residents. She died Thursday morning, March 16, at her home in Boyd, following an illness of five months. She was 82 years of age. Ernestine SCHULZ was born in Schoenwalde, Kruess, Naugart, in the province of Pomerania, Germany, on July 10, 1861, the daughter of Carl and Friedricka SCHULZ. Her elder sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Herman DUENOW, immigrated to America and through their influence, were joined here later by her parents, brothers and sisters, coming to Chickasaw County where she has lived these many years. On December 6, 1883, she was married to Herman DREWELOW, who at that time was engaged in farming, owning the land where the town of Boyd is now situated. When the Chicago Great Western Railroad was being built, Mrs. DREWELOW personally assisted with work on this thoroughfare which was brought across their land. She assisted in building the grade through this particular section where she drove a team. She displayed such skill and workmanship on her part of the project that switches were set up here and a depot erected, hence the town of Boyd, where she has lived her entire life since coming to America at the age of 22 years. With all the other tasks Mrs. DREWELOW still found time to board the workmen while putting through the railroad. Mr. and Mrs. DREWELOW did much in developing this town which was very enterprising in the early days, when roads were poor and travel was either by rail or horse-drawn means. Mrs. DREWELOW was very devout in her faith, being baptized and confirmed a Lutheran. Before the church was built at Boyd if she had not other means of transportation to come to New Hampton to worship on Sunday, she would walk the track the distance from Boyd and back. It was through the efforts of these fine people, Mr. and Mrs. DREWELOW, and a few of the other old settlers, that the St. John's Lutheran Church was established in this once thriving little town. She was one of the charter members of the Ladies Aid Society of her church. Her life was always a busy one. Mrs. DREWELOW was the mother of ten children, all living except one son, Otto, who died at the age of ten years. Those surviving her are her aged husband, three daughters, Martha, Mrs. Frank ZIERATH; Elsie, Mrs. Fred BARSTEL, and Tena, Mrs. Herman SCHULZ. The sons are Julius, Herman, Emil, Albert, William and Reinhart. Also surviving are her elder sister, Mrs. Ulrieka DUENOW and forty-three grandchildren and twenty-six great grandchildren. Mrs. DREWELOW was a wonderful helpmate and mother, ever kind and considerate of others. The high esteem in which she was held was evidenced by many floral offerings and the large group who came to pay their last respects to this fine lady. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon at 2 o'clock from St. John's Lutheran Church in Boyd. Burial was in the parish cemetery. Her casket was borne by her grandsons, Earl, Everett, Francis and Gerald DREWELOW and Elgar SCHULZ and a relative, Orval SCHUCHARDT. Those who attended the funeral from a distance were Mr. and Mrs. William DREWELOW of Beardsley, Minn.; Mr. and Mrs. Fred VON BARSTEL, Hammond, Ind.; Mr. and Mrs. Herman SCHULZ, Elgar SCHULZ, Mr. and Mrs. Earl MILLER and Mr. and Mrs. George SCHNUKLOTH of Grand Meadow, Minn.; Mrs. Ferdinand PAGEL and son, Reinhart SCHULZ of Chippewa Falls, Wis.; Mr. and Mrs. Max BREHMER, Mr. and Mrs. Robert SCHULZ, Albert, Leo and Herbert SCHULZ, Bertha and William BREHMER and Mr. and Mrs. Carl RUNGE of Spring Valley, Minnesota.

Date: 5/16/2005 at 18:34:44 Surnames: BUTLER,MORGAN Well thats an interesting project Debbie ! Anything is possible but there is a Gladys Butler who was a teacher in the early 1900's to mid 1900's in Chickasaw. She is always referred to as either just Gladys Butler or Miss (Ms) Gladys Butler. Taught school for sure at Butler school, 4 miles west of Nashua and Flint school 4 miles west and 2 miles south (could be same school with two names I guess). Couldn't find a record of her being married. Then I found this page which has Gladys Butler Morgan on it as an Art Instructor - http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/la/caddo/history/schools/centalumni.txt . What makes it even more puzzling is that in 1920 and 1930 census, I cannot find a Gladys Butler or Gladys Morgan in the whole state even though she was teaching close to Nashua. Hopefully someone who lives there or lived there in mid 1900's will read your request. Wish I could have helped more. Very interesting. Sincerely, Mike Peterson
