Christina Oswald was born May 18, 1850 at New Friedenthal, South Russia. She married Frederick Kunz and in 1875 they immigrated to US. In 1880 she lost her first husband and remained a widow for 23 years. In 1884 she moved with her two children to Campbell County near Sutley, SD. In 1903 she married Ludwig Boehler and lived in Campbell County until 1919 when they moved to Java, SD. She leaves to mourn her husband Ludwig Boehler, two children William Kunz of Java, Mrs. Christian Koenig of Paradise, ND, a brother Jacob Oswald of Lincoln, Neb., two sisters Mrs. Bauer of Eureka, SD and Mrs. Buckenberger of Herreid, SD. Funeral services were held from the Reformed church with Rev. J. Bohler officiating with internment made in cemetery north of Java.

I looked for Christina Kunz in the 1900 Federal Census Records and found William Kunz as the head of the house and his mother Christina was living with him. William's sister Christina was not listed as she was married to Karl Koenig on November 19, 1899. Also in one of the columns in the 1900 Census it asks how many children the wife had and Christina Oswald Kunz stated that she had 6 children. Therefore she and Frederick must have had 4 children that died in Russia before they came to Yankton in 1775.

Funeral Services Held Here Saturday - For William Kunz
Funeral services were held at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Trinity Lutheran Church for William Kunz, 78, pioneer area resident who died at his home here Wednesday afternoon following an illness of about five months.
The Rev. Gordon A. Selbo officiated and burial was made in the Java cemetery.
Kunz was born December 28, 1878, at Yankton, SD. When he was a small boy he, his sister and his widowed mother sold their home in Yankton and together with five families traveled by wagon and ox team to Sutley, SD. They were able to follow wagon trails as far as Aberdeen, then a village made up of a depot and two stores, but from the Hub City west they broke their own trail.
Kunz used to recall the hardships suffered by the pioneers and of the blizzards in those early years. Crop failures, shortages of food and fuel and other hardships were common to these early settlers.
November 10, 1901, he married Katharina Hirning at Sutley where they lived until 1910.
He and his family moved to Java in 1910 where Kunz operated the Java Equity Exchange for 32 years. While living in Java he served as mayor for two years, served on the city council and school board and was active in community and church affairs.
In 1945 he retired and he and his wife moved to Mobridge, SD where they have made their home since that time. November 10, 1951, Mr. and Mrs. Kunz observed their golden wedding anniversary at an open house given by their children at the home of their daughter, Mrs. A. W. Spiry.
Survivors are his wife, two daughters, Mrs. A. W. (Erna) Spiry, and Mrs. H. T. (Nettie) Hauck, both of Mobridge, SD; four sons, Edward of Watertown, SD, Wilfred of Bismarck, ND, Ervin of Aberdeen, SD, and Howard of Hopkins, MN. He is survived by 11 grandchildren, one great grandchild and one sister, Mrs. Carl Koenig of Carson, ND.
One child and one grandchild preceded him in death.
