Death of Alois Schmidt(sic), nine year old son of August and
Louise Schmidt, last Friday. Burial took place Sunday.
Der Nord Westen, 07 Mar. 1878
*********
Eddie, an adopted son of August Schmidt, nine years of age, was buried
on Sunday, he having died from the effects of measles. He was a bright
little fellow, and his death is regretted by all who knew him.

(Note: I conferred with the cemetery office about this entry to find out
if Alois in the obit is Eddie because the dates match the computer printout
that is in brackets at the cem. entry although the stone is a month off.)
Here is the reply:
[I believe so. He is buried on the lot with August & Louise.
The burial register says buried the son of August Schmitt
on 3/3/1878, so I’m guessing error on the marker with the
date and error in the obit with the 1st name.]
