whose death occurred at Milwaukee yesterday, will be brought here Friday and

County. She was married in 1868 to Henry Schweitzer who for many years was
employed as a printer on the force of “Der Nordwesten,” a German weekly which
was one of the oldest publications in the city. Later he gave up his trade to
conduct the cigar business of a son. Mr. Schweitzer died ten years ago and for
a number of years the widow continued to live at the old home. Three years ago
she took up her residence with her daughter at Milwaukee.
Eight children survive. They are Mrs. Edward Herzog, Mrs. August Molinger, Mrs.
Joseph Simon, Edward and Ervin, all of Milwaukee, John of Haven, Mrs. William
Wagner and Fred of this city. Twenty-one grandchildren and six great grand-
children also survive.
