Obituary
FERDINAND F. HUHN

CAME HERE IN 1848
Ferdinand Huhn, a well known resident of Manitowoc Co. for many years past, died at 10:15 p.m. Saturday night at St. Nicholas hospital of heart failure. He underwent an operation last Wednesday which was pronounced successful, but owing to his advanced age he was unable to survive it.

He was born June 13, 1834 in the village of Abend, Saxony, Germany. He came to the United States and direct to Sheboygan by the way of the Hudson River, Erie Canal and the Great Lakes in 1848, accompanied by many of his countrymen who founded "Sachsen" settlements in Manitowoc, Sheboygan and Washington Counties. His parents settled on an 80 acre farm in Centerville, at which place he lived until about seven years ago, then retiring and moving to Cleveland Station, where he resided for the past three years.

He was married Sept. 15, 1862, to Henrietta Mueller at Centerville. Their golden wedding was celebrated last fall. He is survived by his wife and eight children as follows; Oscar F. Huhn, this city, editor of the Amerika; Mrs. W. Wagner, Mosel; Mrs. Henry H. Branch, Manitowoc County; Mrs. W. M. Belitz, Cleveland, Wis; Mrs. Theodore Frohne, wife of the Rev. Frohne, Cleveland, Ohio; August C., Grand Forks, N. D.; Miss Lizzie, Chicago Ill., and Mrs. Henry Luelloff, Milwaukee. One son, Ernst Huhn, was accidentally drowned in the Milwaukee harbor in 1889 at the age of 19 years.

The remains were taken from the resident of Oscar F. Huhn this afternoon to the 3:34 p.m. train and sent to Cleveland Station, his former home. The funeral will be held Thursday at 1 o'clock from the home. Services will be held in St. Peter's Lutheran church, located two miles west of Cleveland. Interment will be in the cemetery adjoin the church known as "God's Acre," and originally a part of his 80 acre farm. The Rev. Phil Sprenging will officiate.
