DIES VISITING AT DAUGHTER'S ILLINOIS HOME
Stroke Believed to Be Cause for Passing of Mrs. August Quistorff
Mrs. Anna Quistorff, wife of August Quistorff of this city, was found
unconscious in the home of a daughter, Mrs. William Ludtke, at Joliet,
Ill., Sunday morning by members of that family and was pronounced dead
a short time later. Mrs. Quistorff was preparing to return to her home
here after spending two weeks at the Ludtke home. She was in the best
of health and as far as relatives can determine, a stroke or heart
failure was the cuase of death. News of the death is received as a
shock to relatives and friends. Mr. Quistorff despite her 63 years,
was physically fit, it being supposed that heat for the most part was
accountable for the death.
Body Arrives Today
The body is expected to arrive this afternoon over the C. and N.W.
railway in company of Mr. and Mrs. Ludtke. Funeral services will be
held Wednesday afternoon from the Quistorff home at 832 North Fifth
street, the Rev. Menke officiating, and burial will take place in
Evergreen. Mrs. Quistorff was a member of the Maccabees, which
organization will attend the funeral ceremonies.
Mrs. Quistorff, who was Anna Starr before her marriage to August
Quistorff at Knowles, Wis., November 27, 1888, was born at Leroy, Wis.,
where she lived to be a young lady, then removing to Milwaukee and after
the marriage in Ashland where Mr. Quistorff had business interest. The
home was made at Ashland for 39 years, 7 years ago the family removing to
Manitowoc where they have since lived.
Many Survivors
Besides her husband, Mrs. Quistorff is survived by four daughters, Mrs.
William Ludtke of Joliet, Ill, and Amy, Erina, and Loretta, all at home;
two sons, Charles, of Aurora, Ill, and Otto of Los Angeles; two brothers,
George of Milwaukee and Louis of Knowles and three sisters, Mrs. Andrew
Bachhuber of Mayville, Mrs. John Burelbach of Beaver Dam and Mrs. E. Ewald
of Milwaukee. Two grandchildren also survive.
