He settled for a time in Ohio and then came to Nebraska. He was one of the founders of Columbus, NE. _________________________ From THE HISTORY OF PLATTE COUNTY, NEBRASKA- PAST AND PRESENT- Michael Erb, a native of Germany, arrived in Columbus about the middle of May, 1857. He had been here, however, in the previous fall, walking from Omaha to Shell Creek and back to look over the country before bringing his family. In April, 1857, he repeated the journey in the same manner, and at the time stated, with his family, in a covered wagon, he arrived here and located on a farm in Columbus Township. He and his family lived in a covered wagon four weeks, during which time work had been going on diligently in the erection of a log cabin. There were but two other settlers on the creek at this-time -- Carl Reinke and Henry Lusche. In 1884 Mr. Erb purchased a farm three miles east of Columbus, on which he lived until 1892 and then removed to Columbus. Mrs. Erb immigrated to this country from Germany in 1851 and was married at Columbus, Ohio, in 1853. She became the mother of fifteen children, one of whom was named Louis; the first white boy born in Platte County. About the year 1868 J. P. Becker built a grist mill on Shell Creek, and of this industry and other things, a correspondent of the Journal had the following to say, in the issue of that paper of June 3, 1874: "The Valley of Shell Creek has wonderfully improved in the last year. From J. P. Becker's mill, two miles west, in the last year, the following persons have built fine brick residences: J. Held, Carl Reinke and H. Lusche, and E. Ahrens, Michael Erb and W. Weather have completed residences of wood, which look tasty and neat. J. P. Becker has also made many improvements, consisting of a purifier, manufactured at Quincy, Ill., and a conveyor, which enables the operators to have control of the bolting apparatus. They now make the very best of flour. Crops on the bottom look fine and promise an abundant harvest." __________________________ From THE HISTORY OF PLATTE COUNTY, NEBRASKA- PAST AND PRESENT- About the year 1868 J. P.

JOURNAL, September 1, 1890- DIED ERB Saturday, August 30th, of heart disease, after a very brief illness, Michael Erb, aged 64 years. Mr. Erb was a resident of Colfax county, near Becker's Mill for a number of years, and we believe, for the last five years, a resident on the farm where he died, east of this city. He leaves the widow and eight children to mourn the loss of a very kind and indulgent parent. Their grief was intense and inconsolable. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon from the German Reformed church in this city, Rev. F. Fleischer officiating, and the following old settlers acting as pall bearers: Jacob Lewis, Jacob Guter, Jacob Ernst, F. Gottschalk, C. A. Speice and Mr. Marohn, the latter of Colfax County. The remains were followed to their last resting place in the Columbus cemetery, by a large concourse of people. A good citizen, a kind parent, a just and well-meaning man has gone to his long home, and his family will have the heartfelt sympathy of all their acquaintances in their peculiarly distressing loss.
