Albert H. Schram, 78, prominent former resident of Plymouth who served as mayor for two terms, died suddenly at 11 o'clock Tuesday night at his home in Merrill. He was well known throughout Sheboygan County as a former furniture dealer and undertaker at Plymouth.

Mr. Schram was born in Milwaukee August 26, 1854, the son of Frederick and Adelaide (Moeller) Schram, who came to Sheboygan County in 1856. He received a common school education and afterward learned the trade of carriage-maker in the woodwork shop at Baraboo. He worked at his trade as a journeyman until 1879, when he opened a shop in Plymouth, conducting it until 1888 when he sold out and engaged in the furniture and undertaking business. In 1908 he went to Merrill where he established the two leading furniture stores. His sons, Alfred H., Clarence A., and Gustav M., were associated with their father under the firm name A. H. Schram & Sons.
Mr. Schram was united in marriage to Miss Emma Bade, a daughter of Christopher and Wilhelmine (Borges) Bade, early residents of Plymouth, Nov. 20, 1878, at St. John's Lutheran Church at Plymouth. The couple celebrated their golden wedding anniversary in November, 1928.
While in Plymouth Mr. Schram was twice elected mayor and held the position of fire chief for eight years, but upon being injured in a fall it was necessary for him to give up this office.
Mr. Schram was a member of the mixed choir of St. John's church at Merrill, having continuously been a member of the Lutheran choirs at Plymouth and Merrill for more than 53 years.
Mr. and Mrs. Schram have five children, three sons and two daughters, Alfred H., Nora, Clarence, Gustav and Mrs. Clara Peterman, all of Merrill, and three grandchildren.
