Barbara, Do you know how I can find the records that you mentioned for the Lutheran Church
in Ripley County? I am serching for the Lubbe, Decker/Deaker and Macke families. I know
that the Frederick Lubbe family lived in Ripley county after 1850 until at least 1900 and
I am hoping to find information about burials so that I can search for obituaries. The
Henry Macke family was in the area from about 1851 to 1859 and I believe that a child died
while they were living there. Mary Anna Macke and Henrietta Lubbe were sisters. Fred
Deaker/Decker was their brother. He was living in Harrison Ohio in 1902. Any help will be
appreciated.
