From THE PAST AND PRESENT, PLATTE COUNTY, NEBRASKA- Volume II-

Herman G. Lueschen, proprietor of a general stock farm on section 8, Sherman township, was born in Oldenburg, Germany, January 22, 1838, a son of Henry and Kate Margaret (Kuhlman) Groteluschen. After spending his youthful days in the fatherland, Herman G. Lueschen of this review came to the new world in 1858, settling at Mayville, Wisconsin, where he was employed at farm labor. He emigrated to America in order to become an American citizen and his interest in his adopted country was such that when the safety of the Union was menaced he joined the army almost immediately .after the outbreak of the war, enlisting in April, 1861, as a member of Company E, Third Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry. With his command he went to the south and in the operations of his regiment in the Shenandoah valley in Virginia was captured. For four months he was imprisoned at Lynchburg, Virginia, and at Bell Island, after which he was exchanged. He took part in a number of hotly contested engagements and at the battle of Chancellorsville was wounded in the left leg, which incapacitated him for field service for three months. He was afterward called to New York to aid in the suppression of riots attendant upon the enforcement of the draft. Later he was on duty in Virginia, and under Sherman he participated in the siege of Atlanta. The entire regiment re enlisted, continuing at the front until the close of the war, at which time Mr. Lueschen and his comrades participated in the grand review in Washington, where thousands of victorious soldiers marched through the streets of the city--streets that were lined by a cheering multitude, while over broad Pennsylvania avenue there hung a banner bearing the words "The only debt which the country owes that she cannot pay is the debt which she owes to her soldiers."

Mr. Lueschen returned to Wisconsin but in 1869 removed to Nebraska and entered one hundred and sixty acres of his present farm on section 8, Sherman township. He has since extended the boundaries of his place until it now comprises two hundred and thirty acres, much of which he has brought under a high state of cultivation, producing good crops annually. He also engages in general stock raising and makes large shipments to the markets. His business has been carefully and persistently conducted, and sound judgment has directed his efforts at all times, so that he has won substantial success.

Mr. Lueschen was married December 3, 1865, to Miss Bertha Spanhake, who was born October 28, 1847, and who by her marriage became the mother of nine children. Her death occurred May 12, 1910.

In politics Mr. Lueschen is independent but is not remiss in the duties of citizenship, aiding in various plans and measures for the general good. For a long period he served as postmaster at Boheet and for over twenty years was school director. He belongs to St. Paul's Evangelical church and has ever guided his life according to its teachings. He has now passed the age of seventy-seven years, and his has been a creditable and honorable record, marked not only by loyalty to his country in times of war but also in times of peace and by equal loyalty to every cause that he has espoused.

Herman G. Lueschen, 96, one of the very few remaining veterans of the civil war and the oldest pioneer of Sherman township, passed away at 10 p.m. Saturday at his farm home, 14 miles north and one mile east of Columbus, where he had resided continuously for 65 years.

His death was due to complications incident to his extreme age, euremia being the immediate cause.

His health, which had been exceptionally robust for one of his age up to that time, broke in November, 1932. He was bedfast for six weeks at that time, but recovered sufficiently to be up and about the house for several months. His strength ebbed again, however, and he was bedfast for nearly a year. During the last two weeks he lay in a coma practically all the tim

Born in Oldenburg, Germany, Jan. 2, 1838, a son of Henry and Kate Margaret Grotelueschen, Mr. Lueschen came to America in 1858, settling at Mayville, Wis., where he found employment as a laborer on a farm.

So great was his interest in and his loyalty to his adopted country, that almost immediately after the outbreak of the civil war he enlisted in Co. E., Third Wisconsin Volunteer infantry, in April, 1861, and served with honor throughout the war. When his first period of enlistment expired at the end of three years, he immediately re enlisted, with the same company and was advanced to the rank of corporal. At one time, during his first enlistment, he served for three months as the company's color-beare

His company was first sent into action in the Shenandoah valley and while there he was captured by the confederates and imprisoned for four months at Lynchburg, Va., and Bell Island, finally being restored to his company through an exchange of prisoners.

He took part in many hotly contested engagements, and at the battle of Chancellorsville he was wounded in the left leg, which incapacitated him for field service for three months. He was then assigned to duty in New York to aid in suppression of riots incident to the enforcement of the draft, and later returned to service in the war area.

One of his features of service which he ever afterwards remembered with justifiable pride was the fact that he took part in Sherman's historic "march to the sea."

At the close of the war he participated with his comrades in the grand review of the troops in Washington, D.C. It was an impressive occasion, and throughout his lifetime he remembered a great sign which was stretched across Pennsylvania avenue and which read, "the only debt which the country owes that she cannot repay is the debt which she owes to her soldiers

It was when he was in the army that his name was changed from "Grotelueschen" to "Lueschen." Army officers enrolled him as "Herman G. Lueschen." He adopted that form and used it throughout his lifetime. His brother, Henry, who had come to this country in 1860 and also served through the war, had a similar experience and also adopted the shorter form of the name, as did their younger brother, Gerhard, who joined them in this country when he was a young man. Henry passed away about 12 years ago, and death came to Gerhard about four years ago.

Returning to Wisconsin after receiving his honorable discharge from the army in the spring of 1865, Mr. Lueschen married Miss Bertha Spanhake on Dec. 3, 1865. Later he farmed for himself there for awhile and then, in 1869, they came to Nebraska, and he homesteaded 160 acres of land in Sherman township. Through thrift and hard work, and with the true spirit of the sturdy pioneers who converted Nebraska's prairies into one of the garden spots of the world, they conquered the hardships of that pioneer era and in the years that ensued gradually added to their holdings until they had 310 acres of Sherman township land. Mrs. Lueschen passed away on May 12, 1910. In 1917 Mr. Lueschen retired from active farm life and deeded most of his land to his son, Oscar J. Lueschen under a family arrangement whereby the latter has continued to farm the old home place and Mr. Lueschen, sr., has made his home with him.

Throughout all his years in Platte county, Mr. Lueschen was a prominent and revered resident of Sherman township, and throughout his active life he took keen interest in township, school and church affairs in his home community, being ever ready to give generously of his time and money in their behalf.

He was one of the founders and life-long member of St. Paul's Lutheran church, 15 miles north and three miles east of Columbus. He and John Hoessel, who now resides at 1572 Twenty-third avenue, are the last of the group of pioneers who founded the church in 1884.

Mr. Lueschen also had the distinction of having been the first clerk of Sherman township. He was elected to that position when the county was changed over to the township form of organization, and served continuously in that capacity from 1884 to 1895, inclusive.

Similarly, he was the first director of school district 46, an office in which he served for many years. During the early years, that district comprised both what is now Dist. 46, his home district, and what is now Dist. 26.

Back in the days when there was a star-mail route between Columbus and Creston, Mr. Lueschen was postmaster at Boheet, a rural post office. He served as postmaster, with the office in his home, for 22 years prior to about 1903 when the present rural free delivery system was inaugurated and the star route and the Boheet post office passed into history.

For 20 years, from February, 1908 to February, 1928, Mr. Lueschen was a member of the soldiers' and sailors' relief commission of Platte county. He was re appointed to that position for another three year term by the county board of supervisors in 1928, but resigned with the request that a younger man be appointed because he was finding it difficult to attend the meetings because of his advanced age.

Politically, he affiliated with the republican party, but he did not take active part in politics.

Up to the time that his health broke in November, 1932, he prided himself on the fact that he had seldom spent a day in bed on account of illness. He retained his faculties, especially his memory, to a remarkable degree for one of his age up to that time.

He was the last living member of the Creston post of the Grand Army of the Republic. After the post ceased to exist some years ago because the other members had either moved away or death had claimed them, Mr. Lueschen often came to Columbus on Memorial day to participate in the services here.

He leaves three sons and four daughters--Henry Lueschen, residing in Denver; Oscar Lueschen, on the old home place; Alfred Lueschen, in Colfax county; Mrs. William Hellbusch, of Loveland, Okla.; Mrs. William Meyer, of York; Mrs. Carl Hollman, of Sherman township, and Mrs. C.J. Bisson, of Grand Prairie township. One daughter, Mrs. Frank Bade, passed away in 1919, and one son, Herman, jr., died in 1925. He leaves also 35 grandchildren and 46 great grandchildren.

Funeral services will be held on Wednesday--Memorial day--at 1:30 p.m. at the old home place and at 2 p.m. at the St. Paul Lutheran church in Sherman township. Rev. J.A. Bahnsen, pastor of the church, will officiate. Burial will be made in the cemetery near the church.

A firing squad from the Creston post of the American Legion will fire a military salute in his honor as the body is laid to sepulchre. Six of his grandsons will serve as pallbearers. [ColfaxDeutschlandPlatte.FBK.FTW]
