Jacob Wilhelm, 72, a resident of Marshfield since early boyhood, died suddenly at 8:45 o’clock this morning of a heart attack while sitting on a couch at his home, 1001S. Central Avenue.
He suffered a stroke last February, but had recovered sufficiently to be up and about. He went riding with Mrs. Wilhelm yesterday afternoon and last Thursday had answered roll call at a fire, having been a member of the Marshfield Volunteer Fire Department for nearly a half century.
Mr. Wilhelm was born in Calumet County, March 24, 1867. He came to Marshfield with his parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. George Wilhelm, when he was 12 or 13 years old. He attended the parochial schools in Calumet County, and the public schools in Marshfield.
He was married in Stevens Point, November 12, 1891, to Anna Wederman. Mr. Wilhelm, a teamster contractor, was an alderman and had been a constable for 35 years. He was a charter member of the Modern Woodman of America in Marshfield for 47 years.
Mrs. Harris G. (Irene) Olander, Manitowoc; Mrs. Burrell (Clara) Conover, Aurora, Illinois; Arthur Wilhelm, Milwaukee; Mr. R. W. (Kathryn) Prucha, Whitewater; and Mrs. Robert (Alice) Garten, West Allis.
Three sisters, Mrs. Margaret Cramer, Salem, Oregon, and Mrs. Mary Diem and Mrs. Joseph Seidl, both of Marshfield, and five grandchildren also survive.
The body will lie in state at the Seehafer-Hansen Funeral Home, where funeral survives will probably be conducted. Funeral arrangements have not been completed.
