John Lutzke, also a native of Europe, who emigrated to the United States and 
settled at Hazelton, where he engaged in farming.  He has recently retired from 
active labor.  Mr. Lutzke married, before leaving his native country, Mary 
Zezock, and their children were: John K., of whom later; George, Joseph, Andrew, 
Michael, Stephen, and Mary. 
John K. Lutzke, son of John and Mary (Zezock) Lutzke, was brought to this 
country by his parents at the age of one year and obtained his education in the 
common schools of Hazelton.  At that place he learned the jeweler's trade, which 
he followed for five years at Windber, whence he removed, in 1902, to Boswell, 
where he has since remained.
