Surnames: Dahlke Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3EC.2ACE/653 Message Board Post: I ran across his obit in the Montello Express and have it scanned if anyone is interested. It reads in part : Died 10 July 1905 in Neshkoro. Born 23 Mar 1838 in Kolmar, Germany. Immigrated 1855 to Michigan City, IN and moved to Germania in 1864. Fought in Civil War. Married Henriette Erbe and they had 9 children. Dahlke's were evidently an early settler from Kolmar, Posen. Isn't Posen, MI near Michigan City ?
