In the details of my reply, please note both of his parents are mentioned-- Heinrich, 1831-1899, and his mother Anna, still alive in the 1910 census, 85 years, b ca 1824, widow, from Luxembourg. The Stearns History Museum has lots of information, as I noted. Just get in touch with them, or simply note the basic information in their catalogue. It also gives Anna's dates and her maiden name, I believe.
