A PIONEER HAS GONE
Mrs. Margartha Heinzmann Died Today; Had Been a Great Sufferer From Cancer For Over a Year
Mrs. Margartha Heinzmann, ?? of the late late Christopher Heinzmann, died this morning at 7 o'clock from cancer after an inllness extending over a year and a half. She was a pioneer resident of this city and bore her affliction with wonderful patience. In attending the deceased, Dr. C.T. Newkirk used the X-rays, Finsen rays and the modern treatment, Trypsin, recommended by Dr. Baird of Edinburg University. While he saw that the latter had very beneficial results, the age of the patient was so advanced that a cure could not be affected.
Mrs. Heinzmann was born in Madsmansdorf, Germany, on Sept. 4, 1820, and was a daughter of Andreas Beyer. She came to America with her sister and brother-in-law, George Meckler. They settled in this city in 1853, and in the following year she was married to Eustace Sert, who was a miller by trade. After four years at this business in Bay City, Mr. Sert built the hotel at Sebewaing, long known as the Sert House. Mr. Sert died Nov. 8, 1873, and Mrs. Sert continued to manage the hotel until her marriage with Mr. Heinzmann.
The only surviving relatives are two nephews, Adam Beyer, of Portsmouth, and Fred Beyer, of Merritt Township, and two nieces, Mrs. Margartha Gaul, of Monitor, and Mary O'Neil, of Muskegon.
The funeral will take place at 1:30 o'clock Wednesday afternoon from the late residence, 604 Columbus Avenue, and at 3 o'clock from the German Lutheran Bethel Church, corner of Madison and McKinley Avenues.
