This is the obituary for Joseph William Arn. He was the uncle of my father, Harold Eugene Gifford, who resided in Houston, Texas. His mothers maiden name was actually Peters. Reinger was her step-father. She was born on the ship the Kleine Anna in 1855. Her father Heinrich Peters died on the same voyage to America and was buried at sea.

This is a family photo before Josephs father died in Oct. 1893, this photo was actually made just a little before he passed away. See the story under the John Arn gravesite. Clara was my grandmother and sister to Joe.

This is a family picture of Joseph and his siblings and Mother. His father died in October 1893 from a heart attack. This picture was made in about 1910. Joseph would have been about 21. He was the baby of the family.

Uncle Joe at work on his farm. Probably in the early 50's, as this is how I remembered him when we were able to visit a short time before his death.
