JOHN KILLEN 1833-1894 John Killen of Cato died in St. Petersburg, Florida on the 21st inst., from a stroke of paralysis received the day preceding his death. He had gone to Florida for the benefit of his health, which for the past few years has been failing. He had experienced good results from having spent the winter preceding in that state, and sought relief there again this winter. He was born near Edinburgh, Scotland in 1833, and removed with his parents to Waukegan, Ill., when about five years old. When about 16 years of age, his father and mother died. At that time he had hardly any educational advantages, and at once commenced to earn a living as a sailor on Lake Michigan in summer and as lumberman on both shores of same in winter, and continued in these occupations until about the 1856, when he located a homestead in the town of Mishicott, this county. In the fall of the same year he was married to Miss Alice Markham, sister of Governor Markham, and commenced his married life on wild land, heavily timbered, where he was found hard at work endeavoring to make for himself and family a home when the war of the rebellion broke out. Soon after he enlisted in the 32nd Wisconsin Infantry, and served in same until the close of the war, when he returned to his home, broken in health, in consequence of which he sold his farm and commenced in a small way the mercantile business at Cato, Wisconsin where he built up quite a large business. Soon after going to Cato he buried his wife, and afterwards married Miss Tenah Wederman. He leaves a widow with a son and daughter, and two sons and a daughter by his first wife. He was well known in Grand Army circles, and was a member of that organization at the time of his death. John Killen was a man of sturdy independence, large business capacity and loyalty to his friends. He was a good judge of men, and while not demonstrative in his friendships, they were strong. No man ever questioned his integrity and where he reposed confidence it was complete and without reservation. A straight line was always the direction his effort took toward the accomplishment of an object. This directness at times, geve him the appearance of brusqueness, but it likewise gave him the confidence of those with whom he did business. He knew the right with intuitive quickness and always acted in consonance with his perceptions. His death will be a loss to Cato where he had established so many industries which contributed to the prosperity of the surrounding country. There lived no better citizen than John Killen. From the Manitowoc Pilot, January 25, 1894 *********** Death of John Killen An Old Resident of Manitowoc County Dies in Florida Manitowoc Wis., Jan. 24.- A telegram reached here today from St. Petersburg, Fla., announcing the death by paralysis of John Killen of Cato, this county. He had been in the South in the hopes of regaining his health when he was suddenly stricken down. The body will be brought home for burial. Mr. Killen was one of the staunch and prosperous citizens of Manitowoc county, and his accumulation of friends has kept fully apace with his accumulation of wealth. He was among the first to volunteer his services at the outbreak of the rebellion and among the last to return after the victory was won. He was 64 years of age and leaves a wife, two sons and a daughter. The funeral will take place from his residence at Cato on Saturday next at 10 A.M., under the auspices of the Grand Army.

GERALDINE M. KIPPING Geraldine (Geri) Marie Kipping, age 78, of Sand Bay, Sturgeon Bay, passed away Wednesday, Feb. 28, 2007, with her children at her side. Geri was born Sept. 23, 1928, in Door County, the daughter of Milbert and Anita (Wiesner) Lautenbach. She graduated from Sturgeon Bay High School with the class of 1946. Geri married Gerald Kipping on Oct. 21, 1950. They resided in Manitowoc until retiring to their Sand Bay property in 1985. Geri and Kipp owned and operated Peterson Sheet Metal in Manitowoc from 1965 until retirement. (Survivors omitted for privacy) Preceding her in death were her parents, husband, brother and sister-in-law: Lloyd (Jeanette) Lautenbach. She will be sadly missed by the Sand Bay cottage dwellers, the Monday Merkle regulars, and all those she touched throughout the years. Geri lived life to the fullest, and while raising her children, she managed to be a scout leader for both the boy and girl scouts as well as a Tri-Hi-Y leader for high school age girls, Band Mothers Association, and Altar Society. She worked as "Ma" Kipping at Woodrow Wilson Jr. High School as a lunchroom monitor. After moving back to Door County, Geri became a cook for Holiday House North summer camp for many years. Geraldine bartended Mondays at Merkle's Saloon until May 2006, where she made many new friends but also ran into past high school chums. Geri was never one to sit around and always had a project in the works — whether it was sewing sweatshirts for everyone to making Packer snowmen or wallpapering or painting for others. Her get-up-and-go spirit was contagious; she had no enemies. Being non-judgmental, with an easy going spirit, she truly was an example of a life fulfilled. Her legacy: her door was always open, literally.

HANS TIM KNICKRIEHM From Der Nord Westen, 22 Apr. 1880: Death of 80-year old Hans Tim Knickriehm on Mon. in the home of his son John Knickriehm. Burial took place yesterday. ********* (Note: From cemetery: All the Burial Register says is Old Mr. Knikrehm. Slightly off to the side is written a mystery letter than John or Jahn lot. John Knickriehm owns lot E2-93-1 (which is the spelling you have in the obit). Buried on the lot are John Knickrehm (11/29/1911), Child of J. Knickrehm (12/30/1865), and Marie Knickrehm (11/12/1934). I'm thinking Knickriehm is probably the correct spelling, and Hans is probably on the lot, because it was purchased before his death, but I can't be sure.
