Blast Victim Buried with Army Honors
The funeral for Clarence K. Cantonwine was held Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock from the Shaw Memorial chapel, the Rev. Robert Rasche officiating. . . . R. D. Scott, Guy Overstreet, Lawrence Slay, C. B Heggem and C. M Christenson bore the flag-draped casket to it last resting place beside his mother in Mountainview [Mountain View]cemetery, where the American Legion, with Arnold Weigen in charge with Rosa Large, chaplain, held their services. A firing squad from Headquarters company under command of Sergeant Clive Webb, fired the salute and Noland Fry sounded taps, echoed by Guy Dodd. Sympathy was with the father in California, who was unable to be present. Many relatives and friends attended and the floral tributes were beautiful.
Note: Clarence was the son of Alden and Lena (Lang) Cantonwine, grandson of Abraham and Elizabeth (White) Cantonwine, and great-grandson of Charles and Mary Magdalena (Scholl) Cantonwine. Charles, the patriarch of the Cantonwine family, immigrated to America from Prussia in 1806, arriving in Philadelphia, Penn., aboard the ship Orlando. The ship's passenger list shows "Chr. Kuntentwine, single man." The name Kuntentwine later evolved to Cantonwine, and Charles appears to be the only surnamed Kuntentwine/Cantonwine to immigrate to America. Eight or so years after his arrival in Philadelphia, in about 1814, Charles married Mary Magdalena Scholl, daughter of Charles Jacob & Margaret (Fuhr) Scholl, in Bedford county, Pennsylvania.
