Bio

From the web site at: http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ne/county/platte/vitals/vitals1910.html The Columbus Journal, August 5, 1910 DIED LUESCHEI--Rev. O. L. Lueschei, pastor of the Evangelical Lutheran church, at the Kolweit corner, in Grand Prairie township, died at his home at 12:30 last Sunday morning. He had been in poor health for some time and recently had been afflicted with rheumatism. Saturday evening he took an overdose of morphine and died before medical aid could reach him. Rev. Lueschei had been with this congregation some three years. He was a few days less than 49 years of age. He leaves a wife and nine children. The funeral was held on Tuesday, and remains buried in the cemetery at the church. ---------------------- Thanks to contributor #47751153 PLATTE CENTER... ...In reporting the death last week of Rev. O. L. Luschei, of Grand Prairie, the Signal stated that the immediate cause of his death was an overdose of morphine. Since then members of the family have called at the Signal office and assured us that the statement was not correct, that deceased took no morphine, but that death was from natural causes.
