MARY GIEFER
PASSING OF AN EARLY SETTLER
After a long and useful life, Mrs. Mary Geifer(sic) of the Town of Two Rivers, passed
away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Herman Jaekel Saturday last. Deceased was
a native of Germany and when a young woman of eighteen she braved the uncertainties
of the long journey to America alone finding employment in New York City. She was
married there within a few years to Mathies Geifer and the two came west settling
on a farm in the Town of Two Rivers sixty years ago. They succeeded in clearing
away the timber and success was attending their efforts. Four little children made
up their happy family. Then came the ruthless hand of death and removed the father
and bread winner eight years after coming to this vicinity.
Mrs. Geifer found herself along with her little ones but she was strong in mind
and body and with hard work and great devotion she contended successfully with the
difficulties of her position and was able to bring up the little ones except that
one was removed by death. After the children had grown up, the decedent made her
home in this city where she resided for twenty years when old age coming on, she
made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Herman Jaekel. Three other children survive
her, Jake of Racine, Mrs. Kate Sorge of Manitowoc and Mrs. Anna Meinenberg of
Milwaukee. Funeral services were held on Monday from St. John's Lutheran Church of
which she was long a member.
