• Notes

  OLDEST GERMAN PASTOR HERE, REV. A. OBERLANDER, IS DEAD AT AGE OF 76 Passes Away After Illness of Ten Weeks \endash Son Expired Two Weeks Ago. Rev. Alexander Oberlander, said to be the oldest German clergyman in Syracuse, died at 7 o'clock last evening at his home, No. 705 Butternut street. Two weeks ago Tuesday his son, Dr. Oscar W. Oberlander, was buried. The latter died suddenly on June 25, the same day on which his brother, Rev. Fredolin E. Oberlander of Berlin, Canada, sailed from New York for Naples. He was notified of the doctor's death by wireless. The father had not been well for some time and the son's death was a great shock to him. The family came to Syracuse from Groso-Brelten-Bach, Thuringer, Germany, in 1860, when Dr. Oberlander was only 1 year old. Syracuse had been the family home ever since. Mr. Oberlander was 76 years old. He had occupied the pulpit of Mount Tabor Evangelical Lutheran Church in Butternut street, and his son, Rev. F. E. Oberlander, followed him to the pastorate. The older clergyman was active in a movement to establish Mount Tabor Orphan Asylum. Surviving are five sons, Alexander E., Charles, Hartman, Rev. Fredolin E. and Walter B. Oberlander, and four daughters, Mrs. Louise Boullee of this city, Mrs. Adam Dreher of Cullman, Ala., Mrs. George E. Potter and Miss Meta Oberlander of Berlin, Canada. The funeral arrangements have not been completed. Syracuse, New York The Post-Standard newspaper Friday morning, July 15, 1910 Page 5, Column 3
