Veteran of The Civil War Died of Heart Trouble Wednesday. Captain Jacob Frederick Mader, a veteran of the Civil war, died at his home, 309 East Franklin Street, this morning at 10:30 o’clock. His death was due to heart trouble. He leaves surviving two daughters, Misses Laura B. and Emma Mader.

The deceased formerly conducted a carriage painting plant in this city back in the sixties. Later he moved to Zanesville where with his brother, Frederick, he conducted a carriage factory.

JACOB F. MADER passed away at his home, 309 East Franklin Street, Wednesday morning, March 8, at 10:30, o’clock in his eighty-third year.

He had been in falling health for the past three years and had been seriously ill for the last five weeks. His death was due to infirmities of old age.

The deceased was born in Chillicothe, January 7, 1840, and he came to this city with his parents when he was twelve years of age. He was a son of Jacob Frederick and Johanna Sterr Mader. His father was born in Nuremburg, Germany, and his mother in Pfullington, Germany.

Mr. Mader in early life was apprenticed to the carriage painting trade under William Doane. After learning the business, he went to Zanesville and with his brothers, T.H., and F.Mader, he embarked in the making of carriages and buggies. The firm was successful and their output was known all over the eastern section of the state for its honest workmanship.

Three years ago, owing to falling health, Mr. Mader disposed of his interest in the business and retired and moved back to this city where he made his home with his
daughter, Misses Laura K. and Emma Mader.

The deceased married Miss Louisa Hartmeyer, of Circleville, June 4, 1865, who died at her home here September 28,----(unreadable).

Mr. Mader was the father of four children, two of whom, Misses Laura K. and Emma Mader, of this city survived. A daughter, Mary Sophin, age seven, and a son, Joseph
Hooker Mader, aged four months, preceded their parents in death.

Of his immediate family two full brothers are living. They are: John F. Mader, Sr. of this City and Theodore H. Mader, of Zanesville; also a half brother Will F. Mader of Athens, and two half sisters: Mrs. Lena K. Ebert and Mrs. Christena Russ of this city.

February 15, 1862, he enlisted at Circleville in Company O, 61st O.V.I. and was mustered in as fourth duty sergeant, was commissioned second lieutenant October 9, 1842, and on October 28, 1863, he was transferred to Company B, which he commanded in the absence of its captain until April 29, 1864, when he was promoted to captain of the company and served as such until he was mustered out of service at Goldsboro North Carolina.

On his way home, he stopped at Washington D.C. and was in Ford’s theater on the night of April 14, 1865 when President Lincoln was assassinated.

He veteranized at Wauhstchie Valley, Tennessee, January, 1864. He was slightly wounded at the second battle of Bull Run and also at Peach Tree Creek.
