AUGUST CERULL VETERAN BAKER DIES AT HOME
Established Baker in This City in 1883 - Retired Several Years Ago
August Cerull, 75, operator of one of the first bakeries in Manitowoc,
nearly fifty years ago, but who has been retired for a number of years,
passed away at 2:30 this morning at the family home, 911 South Tenth
street, after a several months illness. Mr. Cerull opened a bakery shop
here in 1883 and continued in that business up to a few years ago.
Funeral services will be held Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock from
the Wattawa, Urbanek and Schlei funeral home in charge of Rev. Menke.
Learned Business in Chicago
Mr. Cerull was born in Germany in 1856, and came to this country when
a boy of fifteen with his parents. The family first located in New York
state and then in Chicago where the deceased found work in a bakery.
After several years of apprenticeship he removed to Milwaukee to continue
in that work and in 1883 came to Manitowoc where he was married to Miss
Augusta Wagner. Shortly after his marriage he purchased a home at 911
South Tenth street and opened a bakery there. After nine years in
business there he moved to Chicago for two years and returned to Manitowoc
to open a bakery in the Schroeder place, which has since become the
City Bakery.
Mr. Cerull operated this place for five years when he sold out and
moved to Tenth street where he opened another shop opposite the St.
Boniface church. In company with his sons he continued to operate the
place for ten years. He then retired, due to failing health although
he continued to help in several local shops for a few years.
Widow, 8 Children Survive
Besides his widow he is survived by four sons, Charles of Sheboygan
and Edward, Emil and Harry of this city, four daughters, Mrs. John
Herman and Mrs. Robert Owens of this city, Mrs. John Gates and Mrs.
Bruno Daetz of Two Rivers, and a sister, Mrs. Charles Frischmuth of
this city.
The remains may be viewed Sunday afternoon and evening and also on
Monday and Tuesday up to the time of the funeral at the Wattawa,
Urbanek and Schlei funeral home.
