Charles Schulz
After an illness of two years, Charles Schulz, an old and respected citizen of Naperville, passed away on Friday, June 17th, aged sixty-eight years, eleven months and twenty-two days. The funeral services were held from his late residence on Sunday, the Rev. H. V. Tull, chaplain of Euclid Lodge No. 65, A.F. & A.M. officiating.
Aurora Commandery No. 22, numbering fifty-six Knight Templars, and the local Masonic Lodge, accompanied the remains to the cemetery, where the Masonic Burial Service was conducted by Samuel Mather, W.M. The acting pall bearers were M. G. Becker, J. D. Stoner, J. W. Collins, W. M. Givler, F. A. Kendall and O. H. Reiche. The honorary pall bearers were Sir Knights J. F. Thorworth, Jacob Miller, M. D. Yager, F. H. Bowron, of Aurora, J. A. Bell, J. F. Royce, Naperville.
Charles Schulz was born in the city of Anklam, Prussia, June 26th, 1829. His father, Carl Schulz, was a government pilot on the Baltic Sea for upwards of forty years, and it was the father's wish that the son should follow the sea, but as a seafaring life was not to his liking, he was apprenticed to the barber's trade in Stettin, Prussia.
After learning his trade, he traveled as a journeyman barber and worked in a number of the leading cities of Germany. From Berlin he went to London, thence to Liverpool, coming to America in 1852 and settled in New York City. He finally came to Chicago, intending to locate there permanently, but not liking the appearance of the city at that time, he in 1857 came to Naperville where he engaged in the barber business, also conducting a cigar and tobacco business in connection.
In New York in 1855 he married Eliza Jeep, a native of Hanover, Germany, who bore him five children, of whom three are living, Bertha, Robert and Emma.
Deceased continued actively in business until about two years ago, when he was stricken by paralysis, from which disease he never rallied.
For many years he was a prominent mason, being connected with lodges in this city and also with the Aurora Commandery Knights Templar of which he became a member in 1864. His connection with Euclid Lodge No. 65 dates from 1864, and Euclid Chapter No. 13 from 1866.
