The Mounds Independent, Friday, 7 Jun 1929:
Prominent Resident of Ullin Called by Death
Mr. Fred Hoffmeier, son of Clemer and Angel Hoffmeier, was born in Hanover, Germany, Feb. 1, 1846, and died at his home near Ullin, Illinois, June 4, 1929, aged 83 years, 4 months and 3 days.
Mr. Hoffmeier came to America at the age of twenty-one years and to Pulaski County in 1876. He was married Dec. 24, 1874, to Miss Ferbin Adkins. To this union were born five children, two of whom died in infancy. Those surviving are William and Samuel, of Ullin, Illinois, and Fred L., of Mounds, also two grandchildren.
He was a member of the Lutheran Church but attended the Baptist and Methodist churches of Ullin and was a liberal contributor to religious interests.
Mr. Hoffmeier was the first vice president of the First National Bank of Ullin and one of the original trustees of the Ullin School District. He was a well-educated man and has taken great interest in both civic and religious affairs in this country for half a century. Few men, if any, have been better known in this county and in Southern Illinois than he, and his demise will be keenly felt by our citizenship in general.
His last illness covered a period of about twelve months, but it was not considered acute until within the past few weeks. His mental powers were quite alert until the moment when his soul passed quietly on to meet his companion who passed away Dec. 24, 1923.
Funeral services were held at the home Wednesday afternoon, June 5th, at 2 o’clock, conducted by Rev. H. C. Croslin of the Mounds Baptist Church. Interment was made in Butter Ridge Cemetery directed by Undertaker E. J. Ford, of Dongola.
(Frederick Hoffmier married Ferban Adkins on 24 Dec 1874, in Pulaski Co., Ill. His marker in Butter Ridge Cemetery near Ullin reads: Fred Hoffmeir 1846-19 Ferban Hoffmeir his wife 1854-1923.—Darrel Dexter)
Card of Thanks
We wish to thank all who assisted us during the hour of our bereavement on account of the loss of our father and especially do we thank those who furnished the songs for the funeral service.
