I located the obit of Jochim Goettsch. From the Davenport Leader, Davenport, Scott County, Iowa dated Saturday November 26, 1892:
GOETTSCHJochim Goettsch, an old resident of Rockingham, died at his home there Thursday, aged about 70 years. Mr. Goettsch was a bachelor. He was a farmer in former days, and had before that been a miner in the west. He accumulated quite a comfortable property throught his exertions, and was able to live comfortably. His relatives are his brother, Hans Asmus Goettsch of New Liberty, and a sister whose residence is not known. (this is typed as written in paper. Also, Rockingham is/was a part of Davenport.)

There is also a BIO on the Scott County, Iowa, GenWeb project for Hans Gottsch, born March 23, 1837 and married Anna Schlapkohl in 1860. Do you have that information?

Also, you can probably get a lot of information at www.gottschfamily.net
Bill Gottsch has done a great job of documenting the Gottsch (and various spellings of the name).
