Mrs. A.F. Sohland Dies; Designer, Artist Was 79. Mrs. Alfred F. Sohland of 716 Chew St., Allentown, designer and builder, musician, artist and champion golfer, descended from the Prussian nobility, died Monday in Allentown Hospital at the age of 79. Born Dora von Lichtenstein Stuenkel in the provence of Hannover, Prussia, in 1874, she was a daughter of Frederick and Lena von Lichtenstein Stuenkel. Her father was a high ranking officer in the Hannover Army when the provence was an independant kingdom. Later he served in the Prussian Army, then in the German Army as bodyguard to Kaiser Wilhelm I, "the old Kaiser." She recieved a hymnbook from Queen Victoria at her confirmation in 1888 because Hannover long had been under British sovereignity. She and her husband, now a well-known Allentown realtor, were married 54 years ago. They met when Sohland, a lieutenant in the Astor Regiment on maneuvers for the Spanish-American War, caught swamp fever and was confined to a hospital in Chicago. Dora Stuenkel was in training there as a nurse. They moved to Allentown in 1900, and Mrs. Sohland designed their home on Chew Street. At the age of 50 she took up golf, and won several women's championships at Saucon Valley Country Club. Surviving with her husband is a daughter, Miss Doris M. Sohland, former librarian in Allentown, now chief librarian at the Veterans Administration Hospital in Lebanon. A son, Manfred, preceeded Mrs. Sohland in death. | |
