Birth date: 1824 Apr 3

text of obituary:


Asien, Aulieata....

Im verflossenen Sommer kamen etliche Sterbefälle vor.... Dann rief der Herr auch die alte Schw. Jac. Kröker nach einem etliche Monate währendem Leiden aus dieser Zeit in die Ewigkeit. An ihrem Sarge stand nur ihr alte Gatte, da ihr jüngster Sohn kurze Zeit vorher auch noch nach Amerika ging, wo die meisten ihrer Kinder weilen, außer einem kranken geistesgestörten Sohne in Simferopol in der Irrenanstalt und einer Tochter in Armowir, Kuban. Es war das schmerzlich für das Mutterherz, so von ihren Kindern verlassen zu seien....

English translation:

Aulie-Ata, Asia … In the past summer there were several deaths.... Then the Lord also called the old sister Jacob Kroeker after several months of suffering from this time into eternity. At her coffin stood only her old husband, since her youngest son had gone to America shortly before, where most of her children are, except for a sick, mentally disturbed son in the insane asylum in Simferopol and a daughter in Armovir, Kuban. It was painful for the mother's heart to be so abandoned by her children....

Asiatisches Rßl. Nikolaipol, den 17 Dez. 1902.

... Auch kann ich berichten, daß seit Mai bis zum Juli d. J. mehrere unserer Lieben heimgegangen sind in die ewige Ruhe.... Dann war die Reihe an die alte Schw. Jakob Kröker; dieselbe ist wohl so 20 Wochen leidend gewesen an der Wassersucht, aber sie hat ihr Leiden in großer Geduld getragen und ging gläubig heim. Der alte Br. Kröker lebt noch und ihre Kinder sind meistens in Amerika....

English translation


Nikolaipol, Asiatic Russia, Dec. 17, 1902.

… I can also report that from May to July of this year, several of our loved ones went home to eternal rest.... Then it was the turn of the old sister Jakob Kroeker; she suffered from dropsy for about 20 weeks, but she bore her suffering with great patience and went home with faith. The old brother Kroeker is still alive and their children are mostly in America....
