Henry C. and Engel Langhorst homesteaded in Franklin Township, Fillmore County, NE. The claim was filed on 17 Mar 1870. They first lived in a dugout on the homestead and after a few years built a sod house. In later years they built a log cabin and eventually a frame house. Four of the Langhorst children were born in the dugout. They were John, Henry, Minnie, and Caroline.

Henry Langhorst was a strong Republican and interested in community and state politics. In 1895 he was elected to represent the 37th District in the 24th General Assembly of the NE State Legislature.

The three daughters never married so they remained on the family farm.

If you have come to my website via Ancestry: Several years ago the genealogy giant Ancestry absorbed the genealogy websites of Rootsweb along with personal databases posted at Rootsweb's WorldConnect Project that included a large database of my own family information. I started using Rootsweb in 2000 and they gave us the capability to add, remove, and update our information at anytime and I used these options frequently to post correct and current data. Presently (2006) I am told by Ancestry that we cannot maintain our own databases, we cannot even remove them. If you find information at Ancestry with my name attached please search my website for current information, the databases posted at Ancestry contain inaccurate information. - Karen Rowe.
