Josephine Gertrude Frascht was born May 11, 1928, in Chickasaw County, the daughter of Theodore and Agusta (Huffman) Vohsman. She graduated from the Nashua Community School.

On November 8, 1950, she was united in marriage to Gerald “Gus” Frascht at Saint Michaels’s Catholic Church in Nashua. They farmed near Nashua all of their lives moving to Charles City in 1990.
