Memo10 Apr 2026Biography: Fredrick Peters (Fred) Hartwig (1865–1943)

Fredrick Peters “Fred” Hartwig was born on October 2, 1865, in Peoria, Illinois, just months after the end of the American Civil War. He was baptized in 1867 at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Bartonville, reflecting the strong German Lutheran heritage that shaped his early life.

Fred grew up in Limestone Township, Peoria County, Illinois, in a farming community rooted in German immigrant traditions. His childhood years were marked by both stability and loss. His father died when Fred was just ten years old, and his mother passed away five years later, leaving him and his siblings to make their own way at a relatively young age.

In 1887, as a young man seeking opportunity, Fred joined his brother Christian in traveling west to Sherman County, Kansas, during the era of homesteading encouraged by federal land policies such as the Homestead Act. There, he claimed land in Itasca Township near Goodland. Life on the Great Plains was challenging, requiring determination to contend with harsh weather, isolation, and uncertain crop yields. After about two years, Fred chose to return to Illinois.

Back in Illinois, Fred lived in several communities including Wing, Charlotte, Danforth, and Freeport. On December 7, 1896, he married Elise Catherina Gronewold in Wing, Illinois. Together they began raising a family and building a life centered on farming.

By 1900, Fred was farming in Saunemin Township, Livingston County, Illinois. In 1907, seeking greater opportunity and perhaps better land, he moved his family to Osceola County in northwest Iowa. There he purchased 160 acres near Ocheyedan and established a farm where he would raise his children and spend the majority of his working life.

Fred and Elise raised a large family of eight children, including Margaret Johanna Hartwig, who would later marry Albert Bremer. Life on the Iowa farm required hard work and self-sufficiency. Like many farm families of the time, they depended on their own labor to grow crops, care for livestock, and maintain the household.

Fred’s adult life spanned a period of major change in American agriculture and society. He lived through the growth of mechanized farming, the expansion of railroads, and the shifting economic conditions of rural America. The prosperity of the early 20th century gave way to the hardship of the Great Depression, which placed severe strain on farmers through falling crop prices and economic uncertainty.

In 1925, Fred was confirmed at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Melvin, Iowa, reaffirming his faith later in life. Church and community remained important parts of his identity throughout his years.

After the death of his wife Elise in 1929, Fred continued living in the Ocheyedan area. In later years, he sold his farm to his daughter Anna and her husband, John Radunz, and lived with them. This arrangement reflected the close-knit nature of extended families during that time, where generations often supported one another.

Fred lived long enough to see his children grown and his family well established. He also witnessed another global conflict, World War II, which was underway at the time of his death.

Fredrick Peters Hartwig died on December 28, 1943, in Sibley, Iowa, at the age of 78. He was buried in Baker Township Cemetery near Melvin, Iowa.

Fred’s life reflects the story of many Midwestern farmers of his generation—marked by perseverance, adaptability, and dedication to family. From his early years as an orphaned youth to his time as a homesteader, farmer, husband, and father, he helped establish a stable foundation for future generations, including the Bremer family line that followed.

Memo10 Apr 2026Biography: Margaret Johanna Hartwig Bremer (1904–1970)

Margaret Johanna Hartwig was born on November 16, 1904, in Danforth, Illinois, the daughter of Frederick Peters Hartwig and Elise Catherina Gronewold. She was baptized on January 20, 1905, at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Danforth, beginning a lifelong connection to the Lutheran faith that would remain central to her life.

As a young child, Margaret moved with her family to the Melvin and Ocheyedan area of northwest Iowa, where she was raised in a rural farming community. Her childhood years were shaped by a simpler way of life—one centered on family, church, and hard work. She was educated through the eighth grade, which was typical for farm families at that time, where children often contributed to household and farm responsibilities from an early age.

Margaret came of age during a period of significant change in American life. As a teenager, she lived through the end of World War I and the adjustments that followed. In 1918, she was confirmed at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Melvin, affirming her faith as she entered young adulthood.

The 1920s brought both opportunity and change across the country, but rural communities like those in Osceola County remained grounded in agriculture. However, the prosperity of that decade gave way to the hardship of the Great Depression, which had a profound impact on farming families throughout the Midwest. These years would have required careful management, thrift, and resilience—qualities that Margaret carried throughout her life.

In 1935, Margaret was living in Yellow Medicine County, Minnesota, before returning to Iowa. On December 23, 1938, she married Albert Christopher Bremer at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church in Melvin. Together, they established their home on a farm in Fairview Township near Ocheyedan.

Their early years of marriage coincided with another major global event, World War II. During this time, farm families played an essential role in supporting the war effort by producing food for both domestic use and overseas troops. Life on the farm required long hours and constant effort, and Margaret’s role as a homemaker was central to the success of the household.

Margaret and Albert had three children. Their first daughter, Belva Joan, was born in 1939 but lived only two days—a loss that would have been deeply felt. They later welcomed a son, Wayne Alden, in 1940, and a daughter, Verna Jean, in 1942.

Margaret’s life was devoted to her family and home. As a farm wife and mother, she was responsible for cooking, gardening, preserving food, managing the household, and helping wherever needed on the farm. These tasks required skill, discipline, and constant attention, especially in an era before modern conveniences.

In 1963, Margaret and Albert retired from farming and moved into Ocheyedan, where they could enjoy a somewhat slower pace of life. Even in retirement, their lives remained closely connected to family, church, and community.

Margaret lived during a time of remarkable transformation—from horse-drawn farming and rural isolation to modern transportation, electricity, and improved communication. Yet throughout these changes, she remained rooted in the values of faith, family, and hard work.

She died suddenly on March 17, 1970, at Worthington Regional Hospital in Worthington, Minnesota, at the age of 65. Funeral services were held at Zion Lutheran Church in Ocheyedan, and she was laid to rest in the church cemetery.

Margaret Johanna Hartwig Bremer is remembered as a devoted wife, mother, and homemaker whose life reflected quiet strength and dedication. Through the challenges of economic hardship, personal loss, and the demands of farm life, she helped build a stable and loving home, leaving a lasting legacy for her children and grandchildren.

[from South Idaho Press - 25 Nov 2009]
Marilyn Kay Nelson
CALDWELL - Marilyn Kay Nelson, aged 63, returned home to be with our Heavenly Father on Sunday, Nov. 22, 2009, following a more than 15-year courageous battle with Huntington's disease.
A memorial service will be held at 3 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 28, at Cloverdale Funeral Home in Boise, Idaho. A reception will follow at Wright Congregational Church, 4821 Franklin Road in Boise.
Marilyn was born Oct. 21, 1946, on a farm near Wymore, Neb., to Maynard and Pauline Hartwig. Later, the family moved to Hanover, Kan., and then on to Paonia, Colo., where she attended public school. She began her high school education in Paonia and completed it when her family moved to Sterling, Colo.
Marilyn married Glenn Wasson in 1963. From this marriage came two children, Leah Kay, who died at birth, and Connie Star. Their marriage ended in 1966. She later married Leland (Jake) Sherrell Nelson and resided in Farmington, N.M. To this marriage, Jennifer Lynn was born. After a short time living in Denver, Colo., Jake and Marilyn moved their family to Vernal, Utah, where they operated their own small trucking company. In Vernal, Marilyn began her career with Avon. They moved to Kimberly, Idaho, when Marilyn was given the title of district manager of Avon, a position she was very proud of. Marilyn really enjoyed the trips that she was awarded by Avon to places like Barcelona, Spain, and the Bahamas.
Marilyn enjoyed spending time with her family and traveling. She also loved to spend time sun bathing, drinking coffee and playing piano. During her time in Caldwell, she enjoyed playing bingo and exercise class. Marilyn was a lifelong member of the Lutheran Church Missouri Synod. Her resolute faith in God provided her great strength during her several years living in the Caldwell Care Center in Caldwell, Idaho.
Her family would like to thank the staff at Caldwell Care for their continuous loving care and support of Marilyn, as well as Pastor Bohlken of the Grace Lutheran Church in Caldwell for his faithful visits offering communion and companionship.
Marilyn is survived by her daughters, Jennifer (Trevor) Makinson and Connie (Michael) Warren; as well as five grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by both parents; her brother, Maynard; her husband, Jake; and her daughter, Leah.
The family suggests that, in lieu of flowers, memorials be made to Huntington's Disease Society of America, 505 Eighth Ave., Suite 902, New York, NY 10018.

Memo10 Apr 2026Biography: Reiner Michels Hartwig (1825–1875)

Reiner Michels Hartwig was born on February 13, 1825, in Arle, in the Aurich region of Lower Saxony, Germany. He was baptized a week later in the local Lutheran parish, entering a world shaped by agriculture, tradition, and the rhythms of rural village life.

Reiner grew up during a time of economic uncertainty in northern Germany. Population growth, limited farmland, and changing agricultural conditions made it increasingly difficult for young families to establish themselves. These pressures contributed to a growing wave of emigration to America during the mid-19th century.

In 1852, at the age of 27, Reiner made the decision to leave his homeland. He departed from Hamburg on October 19 aboard the ship Hampden, bound for New York. Like many immigrants of his generation, he was seeking land, opportunity, and a more secure future.

After arriving in the United States, Reiner settled in Peoria County, Illinois, an area that had become home to many German immigrants. There, he found a familiar cultural environment where language, religion, and customs from Germany were preserved within close-knit communities.

On September 18, 1853, he married Tomke Dirk Lottman in Limestone Township, Illinois. Together, they established a farm and began raising a large family. Their household eventually included numerous children, among them Fredrick Peters Hartwig, who would later carry the family line forward into Iowa.

Reiner became a naturalized citizen of the United States on August 18, 1860, fully embracing his new country. That same period marked a time of great national tension, leading into the American Civil War. While there is no record of Reiner serving in the military, he lived through a time when the nation was deeply divided and undergoing rapid transformation.

Life for Reiner and his family centered on farming. The fertile land of Illinois provided opportunity, but success required hard work, resilience, and careful management. As a farmer, he would have been responsible for planting and harvesting crops, maintaining livestock, and supporting his growing household.

The family also experienced the hardships common to the time. Several of their children died young, reflecting the realities of 19th-century life before modern medicine. Despite these losses, the family endured and continued to grow.

In June of 1875, Reiner prepared his will, likely aware that his health was declining. He died a few months later, on November 12, 1875, at the age of 50. He was buried at St. John’s Lutheran Cemetery in Bartonville, Illinois.

Reiner’s death left his wife Tomke with the responsibility of raising their children, several of whom were still quite young, including Fred, who was only ten years old at the time. This early loss would shape the lives of his children, who had to assume responsibility at a young age.

Reiner Michels Hartwig’s life reflects the experience of many 19th-century immigrants—leaving behind their homeland, enduring the uncertainties of transatlantic travel, and building a new life through hard work and perseverance. His decision to come to America laid the foundation for future generations, including the Hartwig and Bremer families who followed.
