Frederick and Lucille farmed near Ellis, South Dakota until 1958. After Lucille's death, he remarried and moved to Hudson, South Dakota.
His memorial says he shared his life with his son and daughter, Robert and Betty, and 4 grandchildren, Linda Cady, Cynthia Habermann, Randy and Sally Reiners, and 14 great grandchildren.
Jo Peck learned from her obituary that she was a Seventh-Day Adventist whose "quiet, unselfish manner won her many friends, and her daily life exemplified her character." The family moved to Hubbard in 1916, and eight years later moved on to their home in Meadow Township.
Jo Peck writes that he fell out of a tree as a young man, injuring his foot, and walking with a limp thereafter. He moved to the San Jacinto/Hemet area in 1950, to get away from the family. His funeral program says a Chaplain from Paradise Valley officiated at the services, indicating that he was a Seventh-day Adventist.
Said to be the son of Morris Robert PHINNEY and Mary Esther HEDGES.
Jo Peck supplied the following excerpt from his obituary, "He grew to manhood on his father's farm and has always followed the occupation of farming....he married Lizzie Bossert, and in 1901 they moved to Petersburg, Nebr., and lived in that state until 1914, when they went to Hartford. He was always of a kind, genial disposition, a good friend and neighbor, always ready to assist those in need, being ever forgetful of himself...He leaves a wife, two sons and three daughters, father and brother. Services were held at M.E. Church by Rev. C.H. Graf."

Obituary
Ida May Payne
By Elder W.H. George
The death angel came to the home of Bro. L.J. Payne and took from him his dear companion. On November 2, the spirit of Sister Payne left the old tabernacle of clay and went to God. On November Fourth the body was carried to the Church of Christ in Marlow to bestow that last sad rite.
In this little church I am sure is she could speak she would say that some of the most pleasant and sweetest moments of her life were spent in the study of the Bible and in the service of her God.
The great crowd that attended this funeral service was a token of memory of the sweet influence in life. Willing hands and loving hearts did all that could be done to help the loved ones to bear the great burden of sorrow.
The Church of Christ of Duncan, the Church of Christ of Rush Springs helped to share in our burden of sorrow, with their presence, their prayers, sympathy and song and beautiful flowers. The floral offerings of the many friends and loved ones were beautiful.
Will say to Brother Payne, the aged father and mother, brothers and sisters who are left behind, weep not as though they have no hope.
The writer tried to speak words of comfort to the bereaved ones.
Is not heaven nearer and sweeter because a loved one has gone on?

Marlow Cemetery Records show that Ida Mae Payne was born Oct 1 1892 died 2 Nov 1925.
This obituary appears to relate to the same woman, however, in the obituary it appears that she was married to an L.J. Payne, and not Walter Winkle. This discrepency should be resolved.
For 20 years he was clerk in charge of R.M.S. on the Quincy Branch of the C.B. & Q.R.R., in Illinois. Then he traveled for 20 years for the Maple City Soap Company of Monmouth, Illinois. He resided in Monmouth, Illinois.
Amos Pierce was born in Vermont, July 31, 1784, where he spent his boyhood days. Removing from Vermont, he settled in western New York, where he was engaged in blacksmithing, proving himself an expert in making the first bolts and ironwork on the New York and Erie canal. In 1811, he was married to Miss Mary Sanford. She was born in 1790, and died September 30, 1845. His second marriage was to Mrs. Evaline Woods. Mr. Pierce removed from New York to Ashtabula county, Ohio. He came to Illinois in 1834, and bought a quarter section of land in Knox county. The village of Altona is located on this same quarter. After he had bought it, he became dissatisfied, as there was no timber on the land. He then sold it and went to St. Augustine, where he met with some old settlers who went with him to Greenfield (now Greenbush), where he bought land south of the village, on section 7. Here he built his log house of three rooms, and here he spent the remainder of his days, farming, blacksmithing, and running a sawmill on Nigger creek, a short distance south of his residence. This mill was built by Cornelius Clover, who then resided near St. Augustine. It was run by water-power, and had an up-and-down saw. The log was drawn against the saw with a wheel, having notched segments on the outer circle and wood pins on the side. When the board was sawed, the sawyer stepped on the pins to return the log. This action was called "treading back the ragwheel.'' Many of the old settlers procured lumber here to use in the construction of their houses, and for other purposes. The old mill played its part in the early days, and then passed into decay. It is said that at the home of Amos Pierce strangers and friends were welcome alike, and that his home was a refuge for the colored man on his way to Canada for freedom. He was industrious, and stood for temperance, education, progression, and a liberal religion; and was a member of the Universalist church. In politics he was a republican. He died July 20, 1872.
Amos Pierce, the subject of this sketch, was the seventh in descent from Thomas Pierce, the emigrant ancestor of this branch of the Pierce family. Thomas Pierce came from England to this country, in 1633, with his wife Elizabeth, and settled in Charlestown, Mass.
He was a farmer residing in Roseville, Illinois, and filled many offices in his town.
Clement, born in Poultney, Rutland county, Vermont, September 24, 1813. He was married to Nancy Farr, March 6, 1834. She was born in Essex county, New York, January 13, 1814. He came with his father to Greenbush township, Warren county, Illinois, in 1834. They purchased 160 acres of land on section 7. Clement settled on a tract of land adjoining, where he resided until March. 1845, when he purchased the southwest quarter of section 35. in Roseville township, and moved upon it. Here he resided until June, 1864, when he moved to the village of Roseville, where he was engaged with Dr. B. Ragon in the mercantile business for about two years. He then bought Dr. Ragon's interest in the stock and continued in the business for about seven years, when he sold out. In 1873 he retired from active labor. He was justice of the peace from 1872 to 1885. He also filled the office of supervisor in Roseville township.
In religion Clement Pierce was a member of the Universalist church. In politics he was a republican. He died December 25, 1890.
Ken Harvey reports that he abandoned his parent's farm after an incident while he was feeding hogs. One of the boisterous animals knocked his bucket and spilt slop all over him. This routine experience caused the welling up of his horrible disenchantment with his agricultural prospects and resulted in him walking off the farm there and then. He became a trained waiter and he moved to California with his wife and daughter. He and Fay separated, and she and Lynn returned to Oklahoma. He came back from California to Oklahoma when he was ill with cancer.
He was a farmer. At the time of the 1850 census, he and Elizabeth were living in Warren County, Illinois. An 18 year old George Shuffield, relationship if any unknown, was living with them. George was listed as a Farmer born in Illinios.

As a young girl, Alice worked at Rezabeks IGA store. After marrying Lumir, they made their home on a farm northwest of Western where she lived for 40 years before retiring to Milligan.
After raising her family, she went to work at Milligan House of Meats for 9 years and then went to work at Fillmore County Hospital where she worked in housekeeping for 10 years, with the last 2 years being a supervisor. Her favorite job was babysitting James Sluka until he attended kindergarten.
Alice enjoyed her 9 grandchildren: Gene, Dan, Nate, Lindsay, Amber, Troy, Dustin, Tyler & Kyle. She also enjoyed her great grandchildren: Carter, Samantha, Dylan, Cade, Jax, Reese, Palmer, Harlo, Briar & Callie. She spoiled them with rolls, cinnamon rolls, kolaches and everything else yummy. Alice was proud of their many accomplishments, and she attended countless activities including football, volleyball, basketball, soccer, baseball, & dance.
Although we were sad to see Alice go, we take comfort in knowing that she was waiting for her son, Larry, as he made the journey nearly 16 hours after her passing. We are confident a good reunion is occurring between Alice, Lumir, Gary and Larry.

Anna Placek was born February 27, 1910 to Louis Placek and Anna Hodek in Milligan, Nebraska and she passed away on September 24, 2011 at the Exeter Care Center in Exeter, Nebraska.
Anna's mother passed away during the flu epedemic and she and her six siblings were left to be cared for by her father. Anna attended school until the 10th grade when she decided to give up school after coming home one day to find her father had her younger sister on his lap and her younger brother on a chair beside him and he was trying to keep the young children warm by a stove. At this point in Anna's life, she knew that she needed to stay home and help her father care for the children so that he could provide for the family. It was not uncommon for children to be adopted out to other family members when a mother would die. When Anna made the choice to stay home with her younger siblings, it allowed the family to stay together. Anna often recalled how her father was such a kind man. He was stern with the children but always fair. She was always proud of the fact that the family was able to remain together after the passing of her mother.
Anna enjoyed farm life and told people that it was the best place to live. Her family lived north of Milligan and in 1936 her father bought a farm between Fairmont and Exeter and the family resided there.
Anna's father passed away in 1951, and Anna, her sister, and her brother stayed on the farm until 1974. Anna then moved into Milligan and helped her sister in the grocery store putting groceries on the shelf.
Anna enjoyed reading jokes, and she also enjoyed sharing jokes with other people and visiting with people in general. Anna was a very caring person and she always felt bad when someone was sick and she would do what she could to take care of them.
When Anna could no longer care for herself, she became a resident of the Exeter Care Center. She met many friends there who were residents and staff. She particularly enjoyed visiting with Dale Mizner.
Anna is survived by all of her friends and the staff of the Exeter Care Center and the kind people on the Hospice team.
She was preceded in death by her parents Louis and Anna; brother Louis; and sisters Rose, Leona, Velma, and Angeleen.

Lenora Faye Plunkett Wooge Kalkwarf was born on a farm between Manley and Weeping Water, Nebraska to Enos Siebert Plunkett and Lena Faye Plunkett on August 29th, 1937. Her brothers were Arthur, Donnie and George. Her sisters were Dorothy and Kathryn. In 1954 she moved to Weeping Water where her parents had a nursing home.
She was married to Edward Wooge until their divorce. She then married Larry Kalkwarf. For most of her life she was a cook, and a fantastic one at that. One of the things that she loved best was feeding family and friends. She retired in 2000.
In 2017 she moved to Southlake Village where she passed into God's loving arms on February 3rd, 2021.
Over the years she made many, many friends. She loved her family with all of her heart as well as the large number of friends who came her way. She loved animals of every shape, size, and kind. Her favorite color was purple. She really loved putting puzzles together and playing games, especially cards with her friends at Southlake Village.
Her children were Linda, married to Greg Soukup, Edward Wooge, Allen Wooge, Carol Wooge, Janice Mitzner, married to Ken Mitzner and Anna Funk, married to Gary.
Grandchildren were Frank Soukup, married to Kimberly; Christina Thietje, married to Tyler; James Soukup married to Elizabeth; Edwin Wooge; Joshua Wooge, Tara Funk and Conner Wooge.
Great grandchildren are Aubrie and Alexander Thietje, Kaylyn and Jessa Soukup and Evan, Corbin and Haley Wooge.
She also had numerous nephews, nieces and cousins.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husbands, sister Dorothy, brother Donnie, daughter Janice and great grandson Evan.
To say that she lived life to the fullest would be an understatement.

Mr. and Mrs. H. L. Pocklington and son, Harold Lee, who spent ten days with Mrs. Pocklington's parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. O. Lenzner, returned to their home in Ann Arbor Saturday morning.
In the 1965 obituary of his father, it was noted that "...son, Harold L. Pocklington of Algonac, is executive director of the Leader Dog School for the Blind at Rochester and is a Lions International Counselor."
In the STRIFFLER-BENKELMAN BROADCAST, Volume 9, September 2, 1946, in a column titled "Still in the Service of the U.S.A.", it was noted that Robert Pocklington, recently discharged from military services, is now employed by the U.S. Government at Bremen, Germany.
In the 1965 obituary of his father, it was written that "One of Mr. Pocklington's sons, Robert R. Pocklington of Algonac is missing and presumed drowned in a fishing accident Aug. 9." The same inforrmation was published in the 1965 issue of the STRIFFLER-BENKELMAN BROADCAST. However, Heidi Pocklington emailed in September 2010 that her father Robert Pocklington was still living. The articles above apparently were written prematurely.
