Reverend Döhne’s wife Bertha Döhne, nee Göhler died in child-birth on 23rd February 1840 and her son Benjamin Döhne, died 4 months later, on 28th June 1840. Therefore the Lutheran church community held a special service at the grave site in honour of the death of Döhne’s wife and son 175 years ago. The broken iron cross was re-discovered and a replica will hopefully soon be made available. On it stands the verse: Hebrew 6,10.
