CASPAR DUTE DEAD.
Special to The Reporter: NORTH AMHERST, April 18 -
Caspar Dute, a well known resident of this place died at his home this morning. He was about 76 years of age, and leaves a widow and several sons and daughters. Mr. Dute formerly lived on a farm north of here, but a few years ago moved to North Amherst where he has since resided.
Addition
from "History of Lorain County"
CASPER DUTE- was born in Ruttinburg, Germany, on the 28th of January, 1827. He
was the only child of George and Ann Catharine (Miller) Dute. The latter
(George) had one brother and four sisters; the brother died in Germany and two
of the sisters emigrated to this country, whither George Dute also came in 1834,
landing at Black river on the 18th of September of that year, and located in
Black River township, about one mile and a half north of the present residence
of his son Casper, and half a mile from the lake shore. A rude log cabin,
floorless and generally dilapidated, was then standing on the farm, which, with
slight repairs, was used by the family for a dwelling for nine years. They then
sold the place and purchased the one upon which Casper Dute now resides. An
opening had to be made in the then unbroken forest, and a log house was erected
for the use of the family. The farm contained fifty-one acres. The parents of
the subject of this brief sketch are both dead.. His mother died December 22,
1868, and his father August 9, 1875. They were a worthy and highly respected
couple, and were among the pioneers of the town in which they passed so many
years of their lives. Casper Dute married Mary Heidenreich March 1, 1850. By
this union were born fifteen children, of whom fourteen are living, namely: J.
George, Catharine, Elizabeth, John A., Anton, Ann Martha, J. Henry, Valentine,
Julius, Annie Dora, Anton August, Mary Orelia, John Harvey, Henry Jacob, Casper
Clcine, Orlie Ferdinand (deceased). Of these, two are married-J. George and
Catharine; the former to Mary Shupe, the latter to Ferdinand Eschtruth.
In politics Mr. Dute is a democrat, and has always acted with that party. He has
been a liberal contributor to religious as well as to educational interests. By
unremitting industry and careful management of his affairs, he has become
possessed of quite an extensive property, consisting of over three hundred acres
of land. A sketch of his farm and buildings is inserted in this work, as one of
the finest in the town. Mr. Dute has always held a prominent position among his
own countrymen.
