New Holstein – March 17
The death of Miss Theresa Dumke, which occurred at her sister’s home 
in Milwaukee Friday last, a brief mention of which was made in The 
Times, caused a feeling of sorrow to pervade the village. Miss Dumke 
was born at Newton, Manitowoc County, Nov. 15, 1864 and at the age 
of ten years came to New Holstein with her parents. In 1884 she left 
here for Clintonville, where she was employed in a store and later 
followed the same line at Wittenberg. She was a woman of unassuming 
ways and endeared herself to all with whom she came in contact. The 
remains were brought here Saturday afternoon, with interment in the 
family lot. She is survived by three brothers and five sisters.
