MARIA SCHNELL  (d. 1920)

The angel of death entered our community and came as a relief to Mrs. A. Schnell. 
She had been sick for a long time but was confined to her bed a week ago when 
pneumonia developed.
Mrs. Schnell, nee Marie Willot, was born in Germany, January 21, 1838. She came 
to Manitowoc with her parents in 1856 and was married to Adam Schnell in 1857 and 
since then made her home on the farm where both died, her husband preceding her 
in death 26 years ago. She is survived by nine children all residing in Liberty and
 Newton. They are Mrs. Louis Pleuss, Mrs. Fred Kieselhorst, Mrs. Henry Kieselhorst, 
Mrs. Carl Kueuger and Louis, Ernst, Carl, August and Herman. One daughter preceded 
her in death nine years ago.
The funeral will be held from the Liberty Lutheran church Friday afternoon.
