  Isaac Nahrgang, "was born June 9th, 1844. On June 4th, 1867, he was married to Catharine Bricker who was born January 3rd, 1845. They reside about a mile south of New Hamburg where he is engaged in farming. To them is born a family of four children" Eby, Ezra E. (1895). A biographical history of Waterloo township and other townships of the county: being a history of the early settlers and their descendants, mostly all of Pennsylvania Dutch origin: as also much other unpublished historical information chiefly of a local character. Berlin [Kitchener, Ont.]: [s.n.]. ________________ Hamburg Independent.-Mr. Isaac Nahrgang met with an accident, which resulted in his death on Tuesday afternoon. While helping to take down the frame work of a barn on the Green farm, four miles South of this town, a heavy piece of timber fell and struck him, breaking his leg and back, of which injuries he expired a short time after. Deceased was in his 67th year and leaves to mourn his sudden demise a wife and grown up family, who have the sincere sympathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement.

He died from the effects of an accident, from a falling timber while tearing down a barn owned by Moses Cressman. He was knocked to the ground and received internal and external injuries. He lived about one hour after the accident. He was of a cheerful and pleasant disposition and will be greatly missed in his home and neighborhood. He leaves a loving wife and three sons; one daughter passed away a few years ago. Since the meeting held last winter at Blehn's Church he (by the grace of God) led an "overcoming life" and was a "praying man." The remains were laid to rest at the Blenheim burying ground. Services were held by E.S. Hallman from Isa. 38:1 and Solomon Gehman from Matt. 24:44. Herald of Truth, Vol. XXXVIII, No. 10, May 15, 1901 - Page 158, 159:
