• Notes

  OLD SETTLER GONE. The death of Peter Lenhard, Sr., which occurred at his home in St. Clements, last Saturday morning, removes one of the very oldest settlers of the township of Wellesley. He lacked but one month from reaching his 81st birthday. Deceased was born in Germany coming to this neighborhood when a young man of about twenty years, settling on the farm just west of the saw mill in this village, which he cleared and latter [sic] on moved to the farm now occupied by his son, John where he lived for about ten years. He then moved to a farm near St. Clements where he resided until he retired about ten years ago when he moved into St. Clements, remained until his death. He was well known by all the older residents and in the early days helped to clear many of the farms in this neighborhood. His family consists of: John, near Wellesley village; Louis, in Michigan; Mrs. Voisin, near St. Clements; George, in Minneapolis, Minn: Peter, on the homestaed [sic] near St. Clements; Edmund, Valley City, North Dakota ; Magdalena, at home; Kate, who died a year or so ago, and Jonas (Father Lenhard) parish priest at Mackton [sic]. His aged wife survives him. The funeral on Tuesday was a very large one notwithstanding the deep snow and cold.
