From Der Nord Westen, 20 May 1909: Death recently in Town Franklin of 91-year old Joseph Uliher (sic), Sr. (Note: I have a Joseph Uhlir in cem. #44 who was buried 5-18-1909.

He is buried next to Anna Uhlir (12 years younger – North Main Street resident), and the lot was purchased by Anton Uhlir. There is another Joseph Uhlir buried in Section L. I don’t have a birth date, but could potentially be the Jr.) ULLWITZ, MRS. From Der Nord Westen, 04 Feb. 1897: Death Sat. in Kellnersville, of Mrs. Ullwitz, of old age debility. The burial took place Mon. at the cemetery there. (Possibly Mrs. Ulovec in cem. #26 but not enough info to determine) ULNESS, ROY Feb 28 1896/Apr 1977 UNKNOWN, UNKNOWN MAN, LISTED HERE AS BEING BURIED, DENIES DEATH TALE Reports that he had met an untimely death in the Manitowoc river during the past winter were branded as not only being entirely premature but also false by George Fox, itinerant painter who returned to this city yesterday with the statement that he had spent the winter in New Orleans. He also denies that he is buried in Potters' field at Evergreen cemetery. Several months ago a floating body was taken from the Manitowoc river at the shipyards after employes of the company had noticed the corpse in the river. Partial identification was made by two West Side residents who knew Fox and his name was listed on the police records as the victim of an unexplained death. Manitowoc Herald News, Manitowoc, Wis. Tuesday, June 24, 1930 P. 6 (Note: Cemetery office can't determine which burial this would be since none seem to match it) UNKNOWN, UNKNOWN DEAD MAN IS TAKEN OUT OF RIVER AT YARD Identity Unknown As No Marks on Clothing and No One Reported Missing Here Mystery surrounds the identity of a man whose body was taken from the river in the rear of the offices of the Manitowoc Shipbuilding Corporation this morning after discovery of the body had been reported by Frank Kinstry, laundryman, on occasion of his daily visit to the yards. Kinstry noted the body floating in the river and it was pulled out by employees at the yards and turned over to the police. That the man had been dead for many days was indicated by the decomposed condition and search of his clothing failed to reveal anthing that might identify him. There was no money or other valuables, no papers and no mark on the clothing that might aid in establishing who the man may be. Dead Man About 50 The dead man is about 48-50 years of age, weighs 165 pounds, 5 feet, 7 inches and wore a pair of top boots, a combination wool and leather jacket and overalls. There were no marks on the body except a small cut on the leg, due probably to contact with some obstruction in the river. It is possible the man may have been lost from a boat although this not accepted because the body has probably been in the water for so long and with little operation of boats that far up river. The body was taken to the Vogelsang morgue and if it is not claimed, will be buried by the county. Police said that they had no report of any person missing here and no one who has viewed the remains has been able to assist in identification. Manitowoc Herald News, Manitowoc, Wis. Friday, May 2, 1930 P. 11 (Note: This entry and the one above may be the same person) UPPENA, DOLORES Feb 20 1897/Feb 08 1998 URAYNOK, JOHN From Der Nord Westen, 20 Apr. 1899: On Tues. morning last week the body of John Uraynok, who resides about a mile west of Reedsville, was found dead in bed. He lived alone and though he had not been seen for several days his neighbors assumed he was sick and did not want to be seen. From the condition of the body Uraynok must have been dead about 3 or 4 days. A coroner's inquest determined that the 65-yr. old man had died a natural death. UTGARD, BERT Dec 25, 1899/Jun 1987

Mr. Vogel was 101 on 13 July of this year. He died in the home of his son in Town Newton. The funeral will take place this afternoon at the Lutheran Cemetery alongside Meyer's farm. ******* From Der Nord Westen, 28 Sept. 1893: Further details on the life of Julius Hermannn Vogel, whose death was reported last week. Mr. Vogel talked about his life to us a few years ago: "I was born 13 July 1792 in Dresden, Saxony. At age 19 I began service on 11 Dec. 1811 in the Saxon Dragoon Regiment. In 1812, shortly before the march into Russia, I was promoted to Corporal. The march into Russia was difficult, but the retreat from Moscow was frightful. I served in the army of the Saxon General Leggoques, then subsequently in the French Army under General Reincke. The burning of Moscow was an enormous spectacle: I lay only 30 Werst* from it on icy fields, hungry, thirsty, and freezing. The crossing of the Beresina was terrifying. I served in the advance party of the Life Company of the feared tyrant Napoleon I, so that I was able to see his intimidating face almost daily. I was severely wounded at Kalisch and still carry scars. For a few days we were held prisoners by the Cossacks, then 39 of us risked the ice and snow to escape, suffering hunger and thirst and wolves, finally reaching the Saxon Free Corps under Col. Taubenheimer on the Bohemian border. I was also lightly wounded at Waldheim, Saxony in 1813. (*Russian measure. One Werst is 1.0668 kilometers or about 1170 yards.) VOGEL, MRS. JULIUS From Der Nord Westen, 28 Dec. 1893: Death on Sun. in Town Newton of Mrs. Vogel, mother of Arthur Vogel and widow of Julius Hermann Vogel who died on 18 Sept. The deceased, who died of a stroke, was born 07 Dec. 1828 in Kreis Landau, Rhine-Pfaltz. She came to America 48 yrs. ago and married with the above-mentioned husband in 1846. She is survived by 6 sons and 3 daughters. The funeral took place Tues. in the Lutheran Cemetery in Newton. It was the third casket to have been carried from the residence of Arthur Vogel in a short period of time. VOGEL, MRS. DANIEL From Der Nord Westen, 22 Jan. 1903: Death Sat. morning, following a short illness, of Mrs. Daniel Vogel, wife of the headmaster of the local Lutheran school. Mrs. Vogel fell ill on Christmas Day, but the illness was not thought to be serious. On Sat. morning she took a turn for the worse and passed away. The deceased was only 38 yrs. old and had come to Manitowoc with her husband 3 yrs. ago. Mr. Vogel’s family has been followed by bad luck over the past few years. Shortly before coming to Manitowoc they lost a child, then 2 other children died since they arrived, and now the mother is gone. The deeply sorrowing husband and 5 surviving children mourn the passing. The funeral was held Tues. from the Lutheran Church. (Note: Possibly Emma Vogel d. 1903.

White died Fri. night in a railroad accident in Texas. Following the death of his wife he had been living with his son in Antigo and recently took a trip to the east and south. A few weeks ago it was reported that he met his daughter-in-law in Washington, the wife of his son Clarence who resides in St. Louis. From there they undertook a rail trip through the south and were on a Southern Pacific train last Thurs. night going to Alabama. The train was 2 hours late and in an attempt to make up time by increasing speed, one car of the 6-car train left the tracks on a curve in Sanderson, Texas, and pulled the other cars, locomotive and tender with it. The Pullman car stayed on the tracks. The first car to leave the tracks burst into flames and no one was able to help as its passengers were consumed. 12 people died in this fashion, including Charles W. White and his daughter-in-law. Mr. White was born, if we are correctly advised, in 1826 in New York State and came as a boy with his parents to Wisconsin. His father was a missionary to the Indians in this part of Wisconsin, settling first near Green Bay and then later in Calumet County. Charles learned the Indian language and their hunting methods. As a boy he delighted in playing with the Indian children. In the late 40's he made a trip to Germany with a Mr. Ostenfeldt, brother of F. Ostenfeldt here, and became acquainted with Miss Louise Ostenfeldt there with whom he married in 1849. The young couple resided in Green Bay, Chilton, and Two Rivers, and then settled in Manitowoc in the late 50's where Mr. White practiced law. Mr. White served with the 45th Wisconsin Regiment during the Civil War and was a member of the local G.A.R. Post. Mrs. White died about 2 yrs. ago and Mr. White went to Antigo to reside with his son. He leaves 3 sons, a 4th son having died many years ago. WHITE, ELSIE May 14, 1899/Jul 1973 WHITE, MRS.

YAKOUBEK, ELLA Oct 11, 1899/Sep 1982 YARRINGTON, MARY AUGUSTA (EDWARDS) From Manitowoc Herald, 10 Apr. 1858: Mary Augusta Edwards Yarrington daughter of Jarvis E. Platt and Mary C. Edwards Platt YATES, MARY From the Manitowoc Herald, 03 July 1858: Mary Yates committed suicide in Kossuth, she hung herself. She was the wife of William Yates. SUICIDE.-Mrs. Yates, wife of a farmer at Frances Creek, town Kossuth, we learn, committed suicide yesterday forenoon, by hanging, in her own dwelling. A messenger arrived in our village in the afternoon, in search of a coroner. We shall have the particulars to-morrow. The Daily Tribune, Manitowoc, Wis. Monday, June 28, 1858 P. 3 ******** The Particulars of the Suicide on Saturday last. On Monday last we gave a brief account of the melancholy suicide of Mrs. Yates, in the town of Kossuth, which occurred on Saturday evening. Mrs. Y. was an English lady nearly 60 years of age, and much respected by her neighbors and friends, and we are informed that she was a member in good standing in the M.E. Church. A desire to return to the land of her birth has been her leading thought for some time past, making her discontented with her situation here. The fear of poverty induced by the depression of the times, perhaps increased the feeling, and doubtless contributed to the causes which deranged her intellect, and led to the commission of the fatal act. She arose from her bed during the night and climbing a ladder in the barn, fastened the rope around some poles above the threshing floor, and descending the ladder a short distance, fixed the noose around her neck, with the knot under the chin, and swung off. As her death was the result of congestion, rather than strangulation, she must have suffered the most terrible agony, and if discovered a short time earlier might have been saved. The circumstances of the case are most lamentable. The Daily Tribune, Manitowoc, Wis. Thursday, July 1, 1858 P. 3.

He was a single man and operated a farm in Kellnersville with his elderly mother keeping house. He was working in the fields Friday morning as usual and returned to the farm buildings for some reason. His mother called him for lunch, but on receiving no answer went looking for him and found him in an outbuilding hanging from a rafter. He was immediately cut down, but the body was already cold. It was obvious that he had been dead for several hours. It is puzzling why he took this action because he enjoyed the best of health, was financially well-off and had never shown any likelihood of such an action. Whether he led a secret life or was temporarily insane, no one can say. Because the facts of this case were so clear, the County did not call for an inquest.
