John H Arps [1817 – 1891] Chilton Times --- September 19, 1891
It becomes our painful duty this week to chronicle the deaths of John Arps and Anna Veers who both died Sunday last and who were both buried Tuesday afternoon. Never before have there been two funerals in one day at our cemetery.
Mr. Arps was one of the pioneers of New Holstein, having settled here in '49. Through perseverance, industry, and hard toil he cleared and become possessor of a splendid farm, upon which he continued his labor up to about two years ago, when he took severely ill. From the effects of this disease he never entirely recovered. Sunday morning he passed away painless and unconscious of the approaching end. His family is a large one, having ten living children, all of whom are married except one. Mr. Greverus delivered the funeral oration, which was well chosen and well delivered.
