THOS. E. NASH DIES
AFTER LONG ILLNESS
Thomas E. Nash, one of the old
and respected residents of Grand
Rapids, died at his home in this city
at an early hour this morning, after
an illness extending over the past
seventeen years, altho he had been
confined to his bed for only a couple
of months past. Death was caused by
locomotor attaxia, and notwithstand-
ing the fact the he first felt the
trouble coming on some seventeen
years ago, he remained actively engaged
in business until about nine
years ago, and for many years after
that his mind was as bright as ever,
and his business associates always
found his advice to be along the most
sensible lines.
Deceased was born in Zanesville,
Ohio, on the 17th day of April, 1852,
and came to Wisconsin with his par-
ents when two years old. He attended
the public schools until he was about
15 years of age, when he took up
telegraphy, and his first position in
this line was at Postville, Iowa.
Later when the Lake Superior and
Mississippi railway was built he took
the position of agent and operator at
Fond du Lac, Minnesota, he being
the first operator at that station. In
1874 he came back to Wisconsin and
took the position of operator at Am-
herst Junction, and from there went
to Shiocton.
Mr. Nash came to Grand Rapids in
1875 but later was depot agent at
Port Edwards, and some time after
this, in company with his brother,
L. M. Nash, bought a cranberry
marsh in the town of Remington,
and acted as agent and operator at
Babcock....
Deceased is survived by his wife,
and the children are as follows...
excerpt from Grand Rapids Tribune; December 13, 1917
—Mr. Thos. E. Nash, president of
the Nekoosa Paper Co., had the mis-
fortune to injure his foot in the ma-
chinery of the paper mill the other
day, which has quite seriously incon-
venienced him in getting around with
his usual alacrity.
