Frank X. Aumann, A Member of Early Day Dept.

Aumann, pioneer resident of the city and member of one of the city’s first organized fire departments, having served several years under ex-Chief August Dueno, died early today at his home at 1815 Franklin street at the age of 76 years.

Mr. Aumann was one of the early day settlers of Manitowoc, having come to America from his native land, Bavaria, when a lad of six years of age, locating here soon after and for more than sixty years this city had been his home. He was married here in 1862 to Carolina Heingarten, who with ten children survive him.
An expert machinist, Mr. Aumann followed his trade up to ten years ago when he met with an accident while employed with the Goodrich line shops suffering the loss of his hand. For several years, Mr. Aumann was employed as gate tender at the North Western crossing at Twenty-Sixth street.
Decedent had been a life long member of St. Boniface
church and had always taken an active part in affairs of
the church and its organizations. Age had kept him from

his chief enjoyment in home life.

Max Aumann, Sr., of this city, twenty grand children and
