Mrs. Henry Gattwinkel

Mrs. Henry Gattwinkel (nee Steidt.
MANN was born in Eulau, Province
Saxony, Germany, in 1885. She EN-.
migrated to America with her parents
in 1849. The greater portion Of the
first two years in America she spent
with her parents on a small farm in
the township of Merrimac Sank Coun
ty Wis.
At the age of seventeen she was
married to Henry Gattwinkel and
with firm and steadfast resolution,
inherent to that class of Germans,
who came to this country about
this time set out with her hus-
band to brave the hardships
of pioneer life on the farm in the
town Of Sumpter which was her home
at her death.
This union was blessed with ten
children, Elizabeth (Mrs. P. Schlag,)
Edmund, Charley, Rosalia mrs.
Fred Waffenschmidt,) and Laura
MRS. u. C.. Keller,) of Sumpter, Ed
ward of the village of Merrimack,
Herman of Priarie du Sac, Alvina
(Mrs. Chas. Brown,) of Barabot,
Emelia (Mrs. G.. Waffenschmidt,)
town of Merrimack and Bertha (Mrs
II. Thoelke, deceased.
Besides her children she leaves
one brother, Aug. w. Steidtmann, Of
Madison and one sister Mrs. Paul
inc Lehman of Prairie du Sac, twen-
ty two grandchildren, fourteen great
grandchildren and four great great
grandchildren. Her husband preccd
ed her in death in 1914.
In life Mrs Gattwinkel believed that
happiness was the only good reason
the only torch, justice, the only wor-
shipper, humanity the only religion
and love the only Priest.
She was great lover of nature,
fond OF flowers birds, forests and
hills, but above all home life was the
most sacred object of her devotion.
She was fond of friends and neigh
bors but above this was the love for
the family which was sublime, tender
and affectionate.
Nature gradually and gently pre-
pared her for the last resting place
and on Jan. 10 she reposed in that
slumber of which we know no awak
ening, having attained the age of
IS years and IL days. On January Fl
she was tenderly laid to eternal rest
in the Kern's Corner cemetery by
sorrowing family, q host or friends
and neighbors.
George A. Gross of Merrimack an
old time neighbor and friend spoke the
last farewell words at the grave and
the Prairie du Sac quartet rendered
several selections. Thus has come to
a close another useful and beautiful
career and let her repose be as peace
full as was tender just and good.
