  • Notes 
    • Mr. Christian Roth Passes

      A prominent figure in the life of the community was ended in the death of Mr. Christian Roth, who passed away early yesterday morning at his home in his 80th year. He had been in poor health for some time but his death was rather unexpected. The late Mr. Roth was born near St. Agatha on Nov. 1, 1862, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Christian Roth. He came to New Hamburg when a young man. 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. He is also survived by two brothers, Rudy L., New Hamburg, David L. St. Agatha, a sister, Mrs. Ben Yost, of Poole and 8 grandchildren. The funeral will be held on Sunday, Feb. 22, at 2 p.m., to Hostetler's Church for service and interment in the adjoining cemetery. Rev. Harvey Gampp will be in charge.
