Company C, 44 Regiment, Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry
The Daily Northwestern Oshkosh, WI Wed 19 Apr 1893, page 1:
The death of A. C. Rasmussen, a man known not only in this city but also throughout the whole county, occurred at his residence, 373 Oregon street, at four o'clock this morning. Last evening he ate a hearty supper and attended the meeting of the John W. Scott post, of which he was chaplain. He recited a poem, "The Boys in Blue," and seemed in the best of health. He returned home about ten o'clock and retired as usual. About 3:30 o'clock this morning Mrs. Rasmussen was awakened to find her husband in distress. She arose and called the neighbors, and a messenger was dispatched for a physician, but before he could arrive, life was extinct. The cause of his death is attributed to heart disease.
Mr. Rasmussen was fifty-five years of age, and was a pioneer of Winnebago county. He came to this country from Denmark about forty years ago, settling in the east. Soon after the war he came to Wisconsin, settling upon a farm in the town of Algoma, where he resided until last November, when he moved into the city. Mr. Rasmussen was prominently connected with politics during his life-time, and was a clerk at Madison during the administration Governor Board. As a politician, he believed in purity in politics, as a veteran, he was in favor of every patriotic movement, and as a churchman, he was sincere and very conscientious. His death will be regretted by a large circle of friends and acquaintances. The funeral will be held Saturday afternoon at two o'clock from the residence and the services will be in charge of the John W. Scott post. The religious part of the services will be conducted by the Rev. William Bennett. The pall bearers will be chosen from the Grand Army. Mr. Rasmussen leaves a wife who is grief stricken at the sudden death of her husband.
