Mrs. Antonia Guttman, Resident for 75 Years, Is Summoned
Mrs. Guttmann (sic) Called
Another pioneer resident of the city whose life had spanned ninety-one
years, seventy-five of which had been spent in Manitowoc county, was
called when death came to Mrs. Antonia, widow of Herman Guttmann, at
her home 1106 South Eighth street early this morning. Mrs. Guttmann,
despite her advanced age, had enjoyed fair health up to two weeks ago
when the decline which ended in death today set in, the sands of life
running out with scarce a warning of the dissolution as she went to
sleep.
Funeral services for Mrs. Guttmann will be held from the home Monday
afternoon at 2 o'clock, the Rev. Paul Lewis officiating, with burial
at Evergreen.
Mrs. Guttmann, born Antonia Bertram, was born at Neustaadt, Germany,
July 16, 1835 and came to America a girl of 16. Two years later, at
Two Rivers she was married to Herman Guttmann who in early days
conducted a saddlery and harness shop on the site of what is now the
Wernecke & Meeker millinery. Mr. Guttmann died in 1895 and Mrs. Guttmann
is survived by seven children of the marriage, Mrs. Gustave Alter, Mrs.
Charles Fechter, William and Albert Guttmann, this city; Dr. Paul
Guttmann, of Kellnersville, Gustave Guttmann, of Minneapolis and Herman
Guttmann of Mankato, Minn. Eleven grandchildren and two great grand-
children also survive.
Mrs. Guttmann was devoted to her family and friends and her declining
years were made happy by a wealth of love that was showered upon her by
them.
