    Notes:

    Anton Wilhelm, who died on Saturday, was accompanied by many friends to his last resting place on Tuesday, his 88th birthday.

    Mr. Anton Wilhelm, an upright, honest man of good heart was one of the first settlers in this area. The same was born on April 2, 1813 in upper Baden and came to Amerika in 1833 and married Johanna Weber, who came from the same area of Germany, in 1835 in Buffalo N.Y, then moved to Dundas, and later settling down on his place by Williamsburg, on the road between Strasburg and Mannheim where he lived until his death. He lost his true conscientious German spouse through death in 1879 and since then was cared for by his only son Mr. Anton Wilhelm Jr., his spouse and children.

    The departed left behind one son, 2 daughters, 22 grandchildren and 20 great grandchildren. He was predeceased by 2 sons, 2 daughters, 3 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren. A solemn ceremony and heart rendering eulogy was offerred by Rev. B. Wm. Kloepfer prior to his burial at the Catholic cemetery where his earthly remains were carried by 6 of his grandchildren and lowered into the grave.

    To the founders of this "Journal" of which he was one of the first subscribers, he was a loving and good friend, to the sons the founders and publishers of this leaflet, likewise his treasured friendliness came to pass. The thought to have had a father and grandfather whose many good qualities and respected ways were loved by all sensitive persons, is a great consolation for the great numbers left behind.

    __________________________________


    In the person of the late Anton Wilhelm, who died on Saturday and who, on Tuesday, his 88th birthday, was accompanied by many to his final resting place, this area has lost one of the first settlers, and a generally beloved, good-hearted, worthy man.
    He was born April 2, 1813 in the Upper Baden area, came to America in 1833; he married in 1835 in Buffalo, N.Y., Johanna Weber, who came from the same area in Germany and then moved to Dundas. In 1844, he settled near Williamsburg, on the road between Strassburg and Mannheim, where he lived until his death. He lost his attentive, loyal German wife to death in 1879 and since that time, he has enjoyed the loyal care of his only son, Mr. Anton Wilhelm Jr. and the latter's wife and children.

    The deceased is survived by a son and 2 daughters; in addition, he has 22 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren. Two sons and two daughters, as well as 3 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren predeceased him.

    His burial, preceded by a solemn requiem mass and a heartfelt address on the virtues of the departed by the Very Reverend Father Wm. Klöpfer, took place in the Catholic cemetery here, where his earthly remains were transported and lowered into the grave by six of his grandchildren.

    To the founders of the "Journal" (among whom he was one of the first subscribers) he was a dear, good friend, and to whose sons (the present publishers of this paper), he has remained a worthy friend. The thought, to have had a father and a grandfather whom all well-meaning people respect and love, because of his many good qualities, must certainly be a great consolation to his numerous survivors.
