Husband to Elizabeth Staude ( Goede )
Born in Gemunden Kreis-Frankenberg

HE WAS A TYPICAL CITIZEN.

Death of a Man Who Was Honored and Widely Beloved.

Death has claimed another of San Francisco's prominent citizens in the person of ex-Assemblyman John Staude. Few if any of the German-American in this city were better or more generally known and respected than John Staude, the grocer, who kept a store on Pacific street, above Stockton, for the past thirty years. His popularity was not confined to those of his own nationality. On the contrary, he was as popular with his American acquaintances as he was with those to whom he was allied by blood and country. Generous to a fault, a kind friend, a most devoted husband and loving father, his heirs have nothing to regret in bearing his good name. The history of John Staude is not unlike that of thousands of his countrymen who have made the United States their home. Arriving in New York at the age of 13 years, he went to work at his. trade, that of an upholsterer; but when this country demanded his services at the time of the civil war, he shouldered his musket and went to the front, where he remained until the close of the rebellion. '.

He was among the first to volunteer for the defense of his adopted country. He entered for the three months' service, joining the Fifth Regiment, New York State Militia, Colonel Schwartzweller. In I86I he left with his regiment for the front. The Fifth went South to Maryland and Virginia, and took gallant part in several actions. It was at Harpers Ferry, etc.. and formed part of the corps of General Banks that repelled General Stuart. Upon the expiration of his time, Mr. Staude returned to New York, and for a time did guard duty for the Government over the Government property, Fulton and Gold streets. Following this, he again joined the army, and served with the Sixty-second New York Volunteers, the Anderson Zouaves, as they were popularly called, Colonel Wilson commanding. He was in action with them at different places under General McClellan. Returning to New York, he met and married his schoolmate, Miss Elizabeth Goede, then only 16 years of age. This estimable lady remained his devoted partner through life, and there were born of the marriage Fred, Henry A., John and Charles, and Mrs. Louis Wiseman, all of whom were natives of this city except Fred, who first saw the light of day in New York. On March 9, 1864, Mr. Staude arrived in this city with his wife, having come by way of the Isthmus. After his arrival he soon was engaged at his trade. He was with the firm of Goodwin & Co. for a time, then with Joseph Piers, and for some five years with Horstman, Huf Schmidt & Co. Leaving this business, he started for himself, and accumulated quite an Independence in real property in the northern portion of the city. In politics he was a pronounced Democrat, and for a number of years was among the leaders of his party. Various offices in the city government were at his disposal, but in every case he refused to accept a nomination from his friends at a time when his election was an assured fact. Eventually he was nominated for the Assembly for the Twenty-eighth session of that body, and was elected by a handsome majority. His record while' in Sacramento was good, and with it he retired to private life.

He was a member of the German Benevolent Society, Harmonic Lodge, I. O. O. F., High Arch Chapter of Druids, Knights of Honor, Independent Rifles, the Leidercranz, Walhalla Singing Society and Hermann's Sons. His funeral will take place from Odd Fellows' Hall, Seventh and Market streets, to-day, at 2 o'clock. Interment at Odd Fellows' Cemetery. His death was due to dropsy, followed by a stroke of apoplexy.

Hon, John Staude.
