Louisa Schultz1
b. 1846, d. 1891
| Birth* | 1846 | Louisa Schultz was born about 1846 in Germany.2 |
| Marriage* | 1871 | She married, as his first wife, Frederick Bassin in 1871 in Germany.1 |
| Immigration* | 1884 | Louisa Schultz and Frederick Bassin immigrated in 1884.1 |
| Census State NE 1885* | 23 June 1885 | Louisa and Frederick Bassin were listed on the 1885 Nebraska State census taken on 23 June 1885 in West Point, Cuming County, Nebraska. Frederick was 43 years of age and worked as a laborer, and Louisa was 39 years of age and keeping house. Three children were listed with them. Murina was 16 years old, at home, and was, possibly, the daughter of Frederick and an earlier wife, or the daughter of Louisa and an early husband. The couple's two children, Louise and Fred, were ages 12 years and 9 years, respectively, and were at school.2 |
| Relocation* | between 1885 and 1886 | Between 1885 and 1886, Louisa and Frederick moved with their children to Antelope County, Nebraska.1 |
| (Mother) Death | 7 June 1887 | Her son, Fred, died in a sad accident at the age of 11 years on 7 June 1887 in Stanton, Antelope County, Nebraska. He had gone to the unfinished well on his family's land to get water for his mother. The well was about twelve feet or more in depth and had so little water in it they could not use a bucket so, as he had done before, Fred descended the steps and filled a pail with a dipper. On this particular day, however, his father was away helping a neighbor and when Fred went down, the bank of the well caved in and buried him. His mother dug him out, but the pressure of the earth was believed to have killed him instantly. The story in the newspaper expressed the community's sympathy for the family reporting that, "it makes the heart feel sad to think of the agonizing efforts of the mother trying to rescue her boy."3 |
| Death* | 1891 | She died about 1891 in Cuming County, Nebraska, at about age 45, leaving her husband, older daughter, Louise, and baby daughter, Antoinette, who was not yet two years old.1 |

It makes the heart feel sad to think of the agonizing efforts of the mother trying to rescue her boy. Hereinafter cited as Friederich Bassin's 11-Year-Old Son Killed in 1898 Nebraska Accident.

They were both able to read and write, rented their farm, had been married for 26 years, the first marriage for each, and Helen had given birth to eight children, six of whom were living. Five of their children, and three grandchildren, were enumerated with them in 1910. Their older sons, Dallas E. and Albert J., were ages 21 and 19 years, respectively, able to read and write, and worked for wages as farm laborers on the family farm; and Laura E. and Daniel S. were ages 14 and 12 years, respectively, and able to read and write. Their daughter, Losha Emanuel, who had married in 1905, was enumerated with her three children in her parents' household in 1910. Losha was 22 years of age, able to read and write, and was recorded as a widow, although her husband, Charles Emanuel, was alive and had been recorded as married a month earlier, in April 1910, when he was enumerated with his parents, Edna and John Emanuel, in Dawson County, Nebraska. Their children, John Emanuel, Alice J. Emanuel and Beulah Emanuel, ages 4 years, 3 years and eight months, respectively, were enumerated with their mother in the household of their maternal grandparents.4 |

The couple's daughter, Losha, was 35 years of age, her husband, Henry, who had immigrated from Germany in 1897, was 38 years of age and worked for wages as a general farmer, likely for his father-in-law.
