No obituary for this baby boy can be found, but the mother's obituary mentions this baby. "Anna Mohning was born April 18, 1860, at Garnavillo, Iowa, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herman Mohning. She came to Plymouth county 60 years ago and lived around and in Remsen until her death. She was married November 8, 1888, to L.H. Harnack, at the Henry Mohning farm in Marion township.
Survivors include two sons, Herman Harnack and Allison A. Harnack and one daughter, Mrs. George (Alma) Wiebke, all of Remsen; one sister, Mrs. Charles Hedemann of Garnavillo; three grandchildren and one great grandchild. She was preceded in death by her husband and one son, Ludwig, and another son who died as an infant; also, three brothers and two sisters." - Le Mars Semi-Weekly Sentinel, May 3, 1949, page 1.

Note: The gravestone reads simply, "OUR BABY". The lot was purchased by Louis Harnack in 1903.
