Wrong date of birth on marker.
St Paul Church records give his date of birth as 20 July 1871, Baptized on 13 Aug 1871.
The passing of Mr. Schwaeble just about marks the end of an era in the community. He was a truck gardener of high ability who regularly made his rounds in Highland for many years, driving his horse and cart from his farm in St Morgan to Highland, ringing his bell as he drove up and down the residential streets while shouting his produce specials for the day.
He had been a patient at the Alton State Hospital the last 15 months of his life.
He never remarried after the death of his wife.
Buried with his father.
