This week the Independent is called to chronicle the death of one of the early pioneers of northern Dodge County, who was also well known to and was connected in a social and business way with many Burt County people, a man of sturdy German stock of the class that constitutes our sterling farming communities.

Johan Daubert was born in the duchy of Saxe-Meiningen in southwestern Germany, on April 9, 1830. He was united in marriage to Miss Eva Elizabeth Uehling, also of the same province. Three children were born to this union, one daughter and two sons. The Dauberts left the Fatherland for America in 1864, coming first to Dodge County Wis., where many of their conuntrymen had settled. However, they remained there only long enuf to gain the first idea of the ways and conditions in the new world and to acquire some means for investment where prospects were better. So in 1873 they set out for Nebraska, coming to Logan Township, where they at once purchased a farm. The children attended school in old District No. 17 and the boys, Fred and Henry, who in a few years became of age soon acquired farms of their own in the same neighborhood, and the daughter became the wife of George Richardson, of Ohio, who is now a prominent farmer in the neighborhood. Mr. Daubert became a widower through the death of his wife twenty- one years ago, but two of his three children survive him viz; Mrs. George Richardson, of Argo, and Henry Daubert of Lyons.
