    JDS Notes-
    Obituary taken from the Tuesday, August 4, 1914 edition of The Lincoln Star, Lincoln, Lancaster County, NE, USA: Andrew Hergenrader, age 59 years, died at 11:30 o'clock this morning at the family residence, 910 Y street. Deceased has been a resident of Lincoln for some time. He is survived by a wife and twelve children. Funeral services will be held at 2 o'clock Thursday at St. John's German Evangelical church at Tenth and New Hampshire streets. Rev. David Maul will conduct the services. Burial will be in Wyuka cemetery.

    He sailed on the SS Pennsylvania from Hamburg on 12 Oct 1901 and arrived at NY, USA on 25 Oct 1901. His contact in the USA was his "brother" Georg in Lincoln, NE. As Andreas had no brother Georg, this contact is believed to have been Georg-George Hergenröder-Hergenrader (born 20 Sep 1876), who was actually a first cousin, once removed. (Andreas and Georg and their families appear to have traveled together from state to state between 1900 and 1910 based on the birthplaces of their children during those years.) Last residence was Saratov, and birthplace was Russia.
