Mrs. Steinhausers maiden name was Mary Bloomeke daughter of John & Elizabeth Bloomeke. She was 38 years old. Her father came to Nodaway county from Ohio when she was baby, to start a home for his wife and child, who were to follow him at a certain time.
Mr. Bloomeke had been seriously injured in a circular saw sometime previous to this and it was thought that the trip west would benefit him. He made the trip on horseback and the constant jar of the ride opened his wound afresh and by the time he reached the vicinity of Conception where he and other friends had come to invest in land he was in a dangerous condition and died soon after he reached his destination.
Telegraph and mailservice was so slow that word could not be sent to the young mother before she started with her baby to join her husband and when she reached Conception he was already buried.
She returned to Ohio and later married George Kimmett and came to Nodaway county and located in the Clyde vicinity where Mary grew to womanhood and married Nov 4, 1891 to William Steinhauser. She was the mother of 12 children, 8 of whom survive with their father.
