- CHRISTIAN LUDHOLTZ -
Broadway, March 17—
Christian Ludholtz, aged Confederate veteran, died at 4:30 Saturday
afternoon at the home of John Carl, near Mayland. He was
stricken six weeks with paralysis, and since then had suffered several additional strokes, the last of which caused his death.
Mr. Ludholtz was born near Mayland on April 2, 1842, the son of George and Mary L. Ludholtz.
He lived his entire life in the Mayland neighborhood. He had never married.
For years he had been a member of the Church of the Brethren, and was known and respected as an honorable, and upright man and a consistent Christian.
At the outbreak of the Civil war Mr. Ludholtz volunteered with the Confederate forces and served for the four years of the war with the 33rd Virginia Infantry, Company I, of the Stonewall Jackson Brigade. He participated in many of the major battles of the conflict, and was
known as a gallant and courageous soldier, serving the Southern cause with valor and distinction.
Mr. Ludholtz is survived by one half-brother, Abraham Ludholtz, of near Tenth Legion.
The funeral was held this morning from the Linville Creek Church at 10:45, the Rev. S.D. Zigler, pastor of the deceased, officiating, assisted by the Rev. C.E. Nair. The pallbearers were Miller and Samuel Spitzer, W.A. Mathias, C.F. Philips, Casper Kennedy and William Kerlin. The News Leader (Staunton, Virginia), Tuesday, March 18, 1930.
