JOHANN SCHOEDER

Kiel, Wis. - Johann Schroeder, 96 years old and well known resident of this city and Manitowoc county, passed away at 9:30 a.m. Sunday at his residence, 734 N. Third street, from infirmities due to old age. Mr. Schroeder was born on December 7, 1839, in Ramberg, Pommerania, Germany. On February 21, 1865, he was married to Miss Albertina Timreck, a native of Kleingluchen, Pommerania, Germany, the ceremony being performed in Ramberg. In the spring of 1883, the couple and their only son, Charles H., came to this country and located in Kiel. A few years after their arrival here, the family moved on a farm at Rockville where they resided for two years when they returned to Kiel.
