ANNA BIRRINGER
(1866 - 1941)
Grass Fire Burns Fatal to 75-year-old County Woman
Burns which she received when her clothing caught fire while she was working in her garden Wednesday afternoon caused the death of Mrs. Anna Birringer, 75, of Francis Creek, at Holy Family hospital at 8 o'clock this morning.
Mrs. Birringer was burning grass and weeds in the garden at the rear of her home shortly after 1 o'clock Wednesday afternoon when her clothing was ignited. Employes of the Francis Creek elevator discovered her plight and used a coat to smother the flames but not before she received third degree burns about the body. She was removed to the hospital where her condition was critical throughout the night.

The couple resided on a farm in the town of Kossuth until Mr. Birringer's death.
The survivors are two daughters, Mrs. John Haws of Francis Creek, and Mrs. Peter Grall of Manitowoc route 2; three sons, Matt of Two Rivers route 3, Ed of Hilbert and Frank of Francis Creek; one step-son, Nick, of the town of Kossuth, six brothers, John Orth of Menasha, Henry of Minneapolis, Nick, George, Matt and Ed of Manitowoc; four sisters, Mrs. John Mosuch of Manitowoc, Mrs. Thomas Walbrun of Menasha, Mrs. Conrad Netzhammer of Milwaukee and Mrs. Frances Guenzel of Shawano; 22 grandchildren and 4 great grandchildren.
