J. F. TEUSCHER, FARMER DIES AT AGE OF 73
TWICE DIRECTED BY GOVERNMENT TO LEAVE LAND
John Fred Teuscher, 73, R. D. 2, died last night at his home after a month's illness.
Born in Berne, Switzerland, March 1, 1873, he came to this country in 1889 and had since engaged in farming in this area.
Twice during his long career as a farmer he was directed to move by the government. In 1909 the State of New York ordered the Teuscher family to leave their land in Delta to make way for the reservoir. At that time they owned 150 acres between Delta Village and Westernville.
The Teuschers then purchased a 193 acre farm in Wright Settlement. which they operated until 1941, when the federal government acquired the property as a part of the Rome Army Air Field site. On the farm were several buildings, including a cheese factory leased to a national manufacturer.
Upon arrival in the United States when he was 16 years of age, Mr. Teuscher first lived in North Western and later on a farm on Stanwix road. From there he moved to Delta where he resided for eight years before the state purchased the land. For the past five years he had operated a small farm on the Stanwix-Oriskany road.
Mr. Teuscher never married. He attended Trinity Evangelical Church, Rome.
He leaves three sisters, Alice, who made her home with him; Mrs. Louise Emhof, Utica; Mrs. Catherine Abel, Stanwix; two brothers, David and Chris, Stanwix, and several nieces and nephews.
Burial was in forest Hill Cemetery, Utica, New York.
Bearers were Mr. Arthur DeSeve, Mr. Maynard Emhof, Mr. Donald Jackson, Mr. William Lauber, Mr. Donald Nelson and Mr. David Teuscher.
