  [S926] Find-A-Grave, (www.findagrave.com). [S927] Obituary. Wm. Lingenfelter died at the home of his son-in-law, H. C. Coon in Estherville Sunday morning at two o'clock, May 15th, aged 90 years, 11 months and 2 days. Mr. Lingenfelter was born in Montgomery County, NY on June 13, 1801 and moved to Wisconsin when in his 55th year; went to Minnesota 5 years later and came to Estherville 26 years ago, where he lived to the time of his death. He was married Nov. 27,1828 to Lavina Seamons in New York state, who preceded him to the spirit world nineteen years ago. The union was blessed with twelve children, six of whom are still living; Orlando Lingenfelter, Mrs. H. C. (Elmira) Coon, Mrs. Amos (Adaline) Ketchum, Mrs. Theo (Lavina) Fenstermacher, Mrs. E. (Mary) Rodgers and Jerry Lingenfelter. Funeral services were held from the Baptist Church on Monday, Rev. Toothacre preaching an appropriate sermon. Interment took place at the East Side Cemetery. Mr. Lingenfelter was a quiet unassuming old gentleman and was well known and respected by all. His death, like his life was serene and peaceful.
