MRS. ANNA KUNZE
Friday evening shortly after IL o'clock
Mrs. Anna Kunze passed away at her
home on South State Street. Death
was due to old age and the ailments
usually incident to advancing years.
She had been confined to her bed for three
weeks.
The deceased whose maiden name was
Anna Marschner was born in Pemg,
Kingdom OF Saxony, Germany Feb. 2,
l841, and she was therefore over "a
wears old when she died. In 1862 she
was married to Henry Carl Kunze who
predceed her in death February l, 1892.
Nine years later they emigrated to
America and located first at Philadel-
phia where they remained for four years.
From there they came to Renville Coun-
ty and in 1879 to New Ulm where the
deceased has resided ever since. OF the
three children born to them, two survive:
Mrs. August Bentzin of this city and
Henry Kunze of North Dakota. A.
mother daughter, Mrs. Minnie Blanckert
was a victim of the fire which swept over
Hinckley in September, 1894. Mrs.
Kunze is also survived by one brother,
Bernhard Marschner of this city, and
one step brother Reinhold Beyerlein OF
the state of Delaware. At the time OF
her death she was member of the
Ladies' Society Of the New Ulm Turn
verein and the Hecker Circle.
The deceased was devoted wife, a
loving mother, good neighbor and a
staunch and true friend. She had more
then her share of worldly troubles. For
many years her husband was unable
to work and it devolved upon her to
furnish the support and maintenance OF
the family. She did this cheerfully and
without a word of complaint. For over
a year her son Henry has been forced to
be away from home. Over this she has
grieved a great deal.
The funeral was held yesterday after
noon at two o'clock from Turner Hall,
Albert Steinhauser officiating. Inter
ment was made in the city cemetery.
