Livingston legacy: Krohne family preparing to sell off historic estate

LIVINGSTON — Dwight Krohne speaks with great pride of his family, which has been established in Livingston for well over 100 years.

He is particularly proud of his great-grandfather, family patriarch Charles O. Krohne, who came to the United States from Sweden as a young man in 1885 and worked to save enough money so his wife, Teckla, could join him in America.

In time he would amass a sizable fortune, which allowed him to indulge his interest in collecting historical artifacts, curios and valuable antiques and antiquities.

That collection, augmented by some family members and dispersed and squandered by others down through the generations, is now in the possession of Dwight Krohne.

Even in its diminished state, the collection is spectacular. There are hundreds of pieces of fine old furniture and home furnishings, antique toys, jewelry, Red Wing pottery, guns, coins, medals, Chinese imperial court artifacts and thousands of other items.

As much as Dwight Krohne values his family history, the privilege of being the curator of several buildings' worth of Krohne family heirlooms has become a burden. Krohne said he and his wife, Kitty, "were in essence just tired of being unpaid caretakers of this stuff."
