      "Christian died of pneumonia en route to IL from Switzerland, aged 24 years. In Switzerland he owned and operated rock quarries in Lucerne, Switzerland. Listed in "Cemetery Inscriptions - Richland County, Illinois" by Barbara Craddock (c. 1969) are 2 Lutheran Cemeteries in Claremont Twp (#1 and #2) renamed sequentially Utterback and Brinkley. In neither of them {or any other in Claremont Twp, IL} are any Urfers recorded
