I have a very small obit on Laura Wombacher also called Sister Engleberta. She dies in Meyers Iowa but is brought to Dubuque Iowa for interment.
She was a sister of St. Francis and is buried in the st francis orphanage cemetery. She was a nun for 15 years, teaching school at Dyersville, Petersburg and the holy ghost parish in Dubuque. She died Sept 7, 1903 and was born Dec 24, 1870. Her family was from Riverside Iowa and she had a cousin named Adam Wombacher who lived in Dubuque at the time of her death. I would love any information that you can help me with. where is this cemetery and how can I find some information on her and these places listed in her obit? I very sincerely thankyou for any help!
Linda
