Anson R. Weaver passed away at his home, 1604 Lincoln Avenue. Mr. Weaver suffered a stroke of paralysis last Saturday and due to his advanced age could not recover.
He was born in Line, Jefferson County, New York, and had he lived until March 30, would have been 86 years of age. He served with the 29th Wisconsin Infantry for three years and four months during the Civil War, receiving an honorable discharge at the end of that time. He was married to Melissa Horn at Milwaukee, Wisconsin, who died last June 23, 1926.
