Funeral services for one of the communities oldest pioneers, Mrs. Frantiska Haineraich, were held at the ZCBJ Hall, Sunday. She died last Thursday a the age of 90 years.

Interment was made in the Jelen cemetery.

Frantiska Andrle was born at Melnice, Czechoslovakia, March 18, 1853 and died March 18, 1943 at 3:30 p.m. in the Orchard hospital after an illness of about 18 months.

Her parents died, while she was a small child. At the age of 10, she had to face the world alone to make her living. She took care of small children and did house work.

At the age of 15, she worked for people by the name of Knapps, who later adopted her and loved her as their own.

When age 18, with her foster parents and several other families, she came to America, where they took a homestead, settling at Pischelville. Here they worked hard in the early pioneer days.

She talked often of an experience, which happened in the old country, while herding cattle for a family. Just as the train was going by, one cow started running right towards the tracks. She tried, but failed to stop the animal, which ran right in front of the train, getting cut in half.

She came home crying, saying she would not take any pay for work already done, but they could let her go. They refused to let her go.

At the age of 26, she was married to Blazej Haineraich, who was then homesteading near Pischelville, where he built a log house for his wife. They lived in it for a number of years.

They first farmed with oxen, which they were in the habit of hiding in a certain gulch for fear of Indians at that time.

Soon after this, a number of settlers bought rifles and built a fort of sod in preparation of an Indian attack.

In the year of 1910, they moved to a farm near Jelen, where they lived five years. When her husband's health failed, they were forced to move to Verdigre. Here her husband lived only two years.

He preceded her in death 26 years. She, then, made her home with her children, but mostly with daughter, Anna.

To their union seven children were born: Victor of Verdel, Frank, preceding his mother in death 12 years, Bessie Snyder of Dorsey, Anna (Vac Jelen) of Verdigre, Fred of Verdigre, Amelia (Tom Smolek) of Verdigre, Rudolph, who died in infancy.

She leaves to mourn, two sons, three daughters, 10 grandchildren, six great grandchildren and other relatives and friends.
