The following obituary transcript was provided to Korns.org by Andy Petenbrink. From another obituary of Emanuel's brother Joseph H. Korns, it seems apparent that it relates to the son of Daniel Korns, Jr. and his wife Caroline (Tressler) Korns.
"Emanuel Korns, 68 years old, a farmer of near Alverton, died suddenly at his home, at 6 o’clock Saturday evening, supposedly of heart failure. He had been ill for a short time. He was born in Somerset county in 1849, but lived at Alverton for many years. He was a life member of the Reformed church. A widow and three children, two sons and a daughter, survive. Funeral services Tuesday afternoon at 2 o’clock at the Alverton Church of God, Rev. S. U. Waugaman, pastor of the Reformed church of Scottdale, officiating. Interment in Alverton cemetery. The Weekly Courier, Connellsville, Pennsylvania, August 9, 1917"
Emanual Korns is buried at the Alverton Cemetery in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania where the tombstone he shares with his wife is marked, "Emanuel Korns 1849 — 1917 Katherine his wife 1848 — 1934".
Emanual Korns appears to be unrelated to the Michael Korns (husband of Caroline) who also lived in Alverton — at least on this side of the Atlantic Ocean.
