FUNERAL OF WM. MARQUARDT HELD THURSDAY
Funeral services for William Marquardt, Tenth street bridge attendant whose
sudden death yesterday was a shock, will be held from the German Lutheran
Church Tuesday at 2 o'clock. Mr. Marquardt had been employed by the city at
Tenth street bridge for two years, previous to that time having been a watchman
at the lighting plant, for eleven years.
Mr. Marquardt was 62 years of age, having been born in Germany, January 1, 1861.
He came here thirty-five years ago with his wife and had since resided here.
Mrs. Marquardt preceded her husband in death several years ago and he is survived
by six children, William and Walter and Mrs. Ed. Btark (sic) and Mrs. Michael
Burns, all of Milwaukee; Misses Ella and Elsie, of this city. Three brothers,
Herman, Ferdinand and John and two sisters, Mrs. Herman Pautz and Mrs. John
Wihsman, all this city, also survive.
A rather peculiar thing in connection with the death of Mr. Marquardt was that
it happened in almost identical manner of that of Mrs. Marquardt, both having
been stricken suddenly, with no warning.
