GOTTLIEB DAMLER From Der Nord Westen, 12 Mar. 1903: We have been advised that Gottlieb Damler, our well-known fellow citizen, died this morning. Further details will be published in our Sunday edition. ---------- From Der Nord Westen, 14 Mar. 1903: (Saturday dateline) As we reported briefly on Thurs., Gottlieb Damler, one of the best known residents of our county, has been taken by death. The passing of the old gentleman was unanticipated by his host of friends. He had fallen ill with bronchitis shortly after New Year’s and was bedridden for about 8 wks., but since the end of Feb. felt well enough to go to his business and last Mon. noon your editor greeted him as he made his way to his office. Although it was reported that he was weakened by his illness, he felt he would overcome it. Then came a sudden relapse which his weakened body could not fight off and Thurs. morning about 10:30 Mr. Damler closed his eyes in the last long sleep. Gottlieb Damler was born 25 Sep. 1826 in Kaltdorf in the Kingdom of Lippe-Detmold. In 1851 he came to America and settled first in Sheboygan, but the following year moved to Two Rivers. There he established himself as a shoemaker, a profession he followed the rest of his life. In 1864 he married Miss Christine Sachse, his now surviving widow. 7 children were born to the couple of whom 5 are still living – Fritz in St. Paul, Robert and Carl in Milwaukee, August in Manitowoc, and Mrs. Tina Roewekamp in Oshkosh. Mr. Damler took a lively interest in everything concerning the common good, and consequently was given a variety of positions of trust by the people of Two Rivers, which he always administered dutifully. He was elected to the Council of County Supervisors and served several years as Chairman. Then the people of Manitowoc County elected him County Treasurer, an office he held 1877 to 1888, putting the county finances in order and ending the mischief of allowing county obligations to go unpaid for several months. After he gave up that position, for which he had moved to Manitowoc, he established a real estate and finance business in which he retained the full confidence of his fellow citizens. Illness confined him at home the past two years, until Thursday when, as stated above, death claimed its victim. A fine man, who in every endeavor brought trust and confidence, has been lost in the passing of Gottlieb Damler. The funeral will take place tomorrow (Sun.) at 2 p.m. from the funeral home at 714 Hancock St.
HARRY DAMLER From Der Nord Westen, 07 July 1904: The first victim of the season to be claimed by the Manitowoc River happened Sat. morning. 12-yr. old Harry Damler went swimming near the glue factory with his playmate Louis Taugher. The boys jumped into the water and as Taugher, an accomplished swimmer, swam into the river, Damler tried to follow him although he was less skilled in the water. Whether he sustained a cramp, or whether he got into deep water and lost his ability to swim, it is difficult to say. Taugher heard a cry for help and turned to see his comrade sink below the surface. In response to Taugher’s cry for help, Joseph Stupecky came from the glue factory and as he realized what happened, jumped into the river and tried to find Damler. He was unable to locate him and the police were notified. The drowned boy’s father is August Damler, who resides at 922 S. 12th St. and works in the shipyard of the Burger Bros. He was called away from work, but nothing more could be done until Capt. Carle came to the site with grappling irons. After quite awhile the body was pulled from the river and all lifesaving measures were undertaken in vain. The boy’s shocked father then went home to prepare the boy’s mother for the arrival of the body. The funeral, for this boy taken so early in life, was held Tuesday. Our deepest sympathies to the parents. ********* [bur. 07-05-1904/cause: drowning]
