He was married here Dec. 15, 1887, to Lydia Schultz, and he farmed successfully for many years on the farm adjoining the village, now owned by his son, William. About twenty-four years ago he purchased the properties of the late Jos. F. Rau, including the brewery property. He acquired the Oak Grove Cheese factory on Bleam's Road and moved the business to the old brewery premises. He conducted the business successfully for several years until he disposal of the same to Mr. Zito Baccarini, the present owner. Since then he lived in retirement. The deceased was a member of the Reformed Mennonite Church. Besides his wife he is survived by two sons, David and William of New Hamburg and a daughter, Luella, Mrs. Maurice Weicker, of near Haysville. One son, Edward, predeceased him.
