    1. [INDIANA] Nicolas Kemp Obit
    2. Hi all, I can't remember who I talked to regarding the Kemp family. I am researching the Kemp family in Henry County, Indiana. I have Isaac R. Kemp, born July 19, 1841, in Shelby County, Indiana, he married Margaret Matilda Smith, September 1, 1917, in Shelby County, Indiana. Margaret Matilda Smith, later married my grgrgrandfather Joseph Robb, on September 29, 1870, in Hancock County, Indiana. I would email you privately, however, I can't remember your email address. I ran across this Kemp obit, and thought I would pass it along. I hope the list administrator will let this go thru. Some of the Kemp Clan left Indiana, and went to Iowa. Here is the Obit: Thanks, Lora DEATH OF NICOLAS KEMP, OF PORT WASHINGTON -- As if the thriving little city of Port Washington had not had her share of trouble, the death of one of her most prominent citizens and business men in the person of Nicolas KEMP, is another addition of inflicting a loss to the whole community.  Mr. KEMP died of heart disease at La Mars, Iowa Wednesday night of last week. Mr. KEMP had been feeling unwell for more than three months, and recently left on a trip through the west in the hope of bettering his health.  His sudden demise is also a terrible blow to his family. He was a business associate of Wm. H. RAMSEY, and together they were principal owners of the large malting houses. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon last and was largely attended by relations and friends of the deceased from the city and abroad.  Several gentlemen came from Milwaukee and among them we noticed Messrs. Chas. von BAUMBACH, GERHARDY, Von KALTENBORN and others.  To the bereaved family we extend our most heartfelt sympathy.
