ADELGUNDE MEISELWITZ
Adelgunde Henriette Wriedt Meiselwitz
During the night between Wednesday and Thursday, Mrs. Adelgunde Henriette Meiselwitz, the wife of Mr. Wm. Meiselwitz Sr. died at the age of 72 years, 2 months and 14 days after a lengthy illness. The deceased was born on April 15, 1839 in Oldenburg, Germany and left Germany with her parents and siblings in 1853 to come to America. During the ocean voyage her parents and one brother died, leaving her and her sister to land in America alone. First they came to Sheboygan and from there to Kiel. In 1859 she married Detlef Wriedt and the couple settled on a farm in the Town of New Holstein, and the marriage produced two children. After six years her husband died. In 1866 she married a second time to Wm. Meiselwitz and moved with him to a farm near Kiel. This marriage was blessed with four sons of whom one died before his mother.
Twelve years ago they moved to Kiel for their retirement years. About two months ago she became ill with a nervous complaint from which she now slipped into a peaceful death. She leaves behind her husband, three sons, two daughters and three daughter-in-laws and 23 grandchildren. The burial took place on Saturday afternoon at the Kiel Cemetery with Paster Roch
(St. Peter UCC) officiating.
