He died here in his home after a lingering illness of bronchitis (Croup or inflammation of the windpipe). Mr. Reseburg comes from Rothemuehle, the province of Pomerania, Germany where he first saw the light of the world on March 18, 1846. In 1868 he came to America, and shortly there after to Kiel. At first he worked as a building contractor with the now deceased Mr. F. Griebenow and later managed a lumber yard near the sawmill, also a furniture company and a syrup mill. After which he moved to Green Bay for a few years and then to Plymouth where he operated an inn. In 1892 he returned to Kiel, where he took over operation of a hall from Mr. Wm. Koehring, that is now owned by Mr. Chas. Redemann. In the last years he operated a lighting rod business. The marriage, which he entered into in 1870 with Ernestine Michler, produced eight children of which five are still living; namely Mrs. Chas Redemann, Hulda, Walter, Etta and Wilhelm.
