HENRY HANSEN
Henry Hansen died Monday after a short illness. Deceased has been a
resident of Manitowoc County for forty-six years and was long engaged as
the proprietor of a saloon but since 1907 has lived retired. His birth
occurred in Germany on the 14th of August, 1842. In 1867, lured by the
many favorable reports which he had heard concerning the opportunities
and advantages of the new world, he crossed the Atlantic to the United
States, settling in Kiel, Wis., where he secured employment as a
carpenter. He worked at carpentering until 1881 when an injury to his
hand compelled him to abandon the trade and he embarked in the saloon
business here continuing therein until 1907 when he sold out to his son
and retired.
In 1867 Mr. Hansen was united in marriage to Sophia Smith, who passed
away in 1900. He again married and is survived by his widow and the
following sons and daughters, John of Detroit, Mich., Mrs. Annie
Jacobson and Charles of this city and Henry of Kewaunee. He was a member
of the city council for one term, acted as deputy sheriff for a number
of years and served as city treasurer at different times. For five years
he also held the office of supervisor. Fraternally he was identified
with the Odd Fellows. The funeral was held this afternoon and was in
charge of the Odd Fellow Lodge.
