Charles F. Ludwig, 72 (photo), widely known for his activities in conservation,
died in his sleep Saturday morning at the home, 1310 S. 15th St., Manitowoc.

and Reformed Church, Manitowoc. The Rev. Paul Blaufus will officiate and burial

young man was associated with his father in the blacksmith trade. He later was

In 1908 he married the former Louise Sauncy at Abrams, Wis., and the couple lived
several years at Suamico and Oconto before moving to Manitowoc. Mr. Ludwig was a
charter member and for many years financial secretary of the Manitowoc County Fish
and Game Protective Association. He was interested in promoting the conservation
features of the Association and was also active as a fisherman and hunter.

Carstens and also was a deputy sheriff for many years. He was a member of the
Manitowoc Eagles aerie.
