SUMMARY
Deutsche Biographie / Gemeinsame Normdatei (GND) authority record for Louis Kuhne, used in this case for the hard biographical facts: birth 14 March 1835 and death 4 April 1901, with death at Leipzig (GND 1166088235). The record is a thin index entry; it carries the life dates and place of death but no occupation prose, so the occupation (Naturheilkundler, lay nature-cure healer) is grounded to the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek record in this bundle. Used to confirm the subject is long deceased and to distinguish him from the unrelated 19th-century Leipzig heating-and-windmotor manufacturer of the same name.
NOTES
The Deutsche Biographie authority record for Louis Kuhne (GND 1166088235) supplies the life dates used throughout this case: born 14 March 1835 and died 4 April 1901, with Leipzig recorded as the place of death. The entry is a short normdata index rather than a full biographical article, so it is used here only for the dates and the death place; the occupation and the substance of the practice are grounded to the Deutsche Digitale Bibliothek record and to Kuhne’s own books elsewhere in the bundle. The record also serves to fix identity: a separate Louis Kühne of 19th-century Leipzig was a heating-apparatus and windmotor manufacturer, an unrelated person whose archival images were excluded from this case.
