CARL HEINGARTEN, SR.

From Der Nord Westen, 25 Jan. 1906 
Death Tuesday evening of 57-year old Carl Heingarten, Sr., of a brain disease
in Holy Family Hospital. The deceased was born 19 September 1848 in Baden and as
a boy came to America with his parents, arriving in our city where he has lived since
1857. During the Civil War he served as a volunteer with the 39th Wisconsin Infantry
Regiment. In 1870 he married Miss Louise Winter, his now sorrowing widow.
Also mourning his passing are 4 children - Carl Heingarten, Jr., of Chicago,
Mrs. W. Willinger and Miss Rose and Walter Heingarten here, as well
as a brother living in New Orleans, Louisiana, and 2 sisters. The deceased was a
shoemaker by trade and for many years operated a shoe store on South Main Street.
He was a member of the G.A.R. and of the singing club "Concordia". In his passing
the city has lost a respected and beloved citizen and the family has lost a loving
husband and father. He was often elected by his fellow citizens to positions of trust
and he filled those posts honorably. The funeral will be held Saturday morning from
St. Boniface Church.
NOTE: I believe this is where this obit goes, the year of death matches, the
      Civil War regiment matches and there are no other Carl Heingartens in and
      other cemeteries, although the year of birth differs.

WILLIAM HEISENFELDT   cemetery #44

From Der Nord Westen, 20 Mar. 1902
Last Sun., Dec. 1st, a hut burned down that Civil War veteran 
Wilhelm Heisenfeldt had erected in the woods near Manitowoc 
Rapids and which had served as a dwelling for him and his only 
companion, his dog. Following the fire Heisenfeldt disappeared 
and it was generally assumed that he had gone to Green Bay from 
where he came many years ago. On Wed. last week his body was 
found in the river. Whether he had  intentionally jumped into 
the river or had fallen in while drunk is difficult to answer, 
but the coroner's jury chose the latter explanation

VALDERS MAN KILLED WHEN STRUCK BY TREE
Skull Fractured by Falling Tree While at Work in Timber Lot
Henry Helgeson, 51, living one mile west of the village of Valders, 
died of a skull fracture at his home at 9 o'clock last night, the 
victim of a falling tree which he cut down for lumber in a timber tract 
owned jointly by him and Gustave Gilbert. The accident occurred at 9 
o'clock yesterday morning, shortly after the men had started their work 
and Gilbert, who witnessed the mishap, took Helgeson in a car to 
rush him to his home. Drs. Rauch and Farrell were called and an 
examination revealed the fracture at the base of the skull, leaving 
little hope for recovery. The death followed last night.
Helgeson was caught a glancing blow by a limb of the tree as it was 
felled and was struck to the ground. Gilbert came to his assistance 
immediately and Helgeson was able to get up and sat up in the car on 
the trip to his home. He apparently dozed on the way, the tract being 
about two miles from his home. It was not until after the doctors had 
been called the graveness of the injury was realized.
Born in the county, Helgeson had always made his home here. He is 
survived by his widow and five [six] children and several brothers and 
sisters. The funeral will be held  Friday afternoon at 1 o'clock from 
the home and 2 o'clock from the Lutheran church at Valders, Rev. O.K. 
Espeseth officiating. Burial will be at the Valders cemetery.

Corp. Conrad Helgeson Has Eight Battle Stars
Conrad Helgeson, whose military service took him to eight different 
countries, still contends that the United States, Wisconsin, and home 
are best of all. He has arrived home from overseas, receiving his 
honorable discharge at Fort Sheridan on September 22nd. He has 
mentioned the primitive condition of the peoples of many of these 
countries with the oxen still used in much farm work.
Conrad came through with eight battle stars, and eight campaigns during 
those thirty two months overseas without being wounded once. However, 
he did suffer four attacks of malaria.
It was on June 24, 1942, that he entered service with his training 
beginning at Fort Bragg, Noth Carolina. He was later sent to Fort 
Meade, Maryland. On February 7, 1943, he left for overseas, going then 
to North Africa. He was at Casablanca, the Tunisian Campaign, 
participated in the Sicilian landing, was at Salerno, lower Italy, 
across the Volturno River up to the Casino front. They then moved back 
to prepare for the Anzio landing. He was at the Anzio Beachhead for 
four months and while there saw Russell Glasow, the only Valders or 
county soldier he met in his entire army service. While in this area he 
went to Rome and there visited the Vatican and saw the Pope.
His group was then moved back to lower Italy to prepare for the 
invasion of southern France. They fought through southern France up to 
Strasbourg on the Rhine. They were then pulled down to the Colmar 
pocket, and here were cited with the Croix de Guerre by the Fench 
government and the U.S. Presidential citation. They then went into the 
Siegfried line, went through to Augsburg, Munich, Salsburg, Austria and 
were there when the war ended.
Conrad enjoyed much going through Hitler's noted hideaway, Berchesgarten. 
He was then with the troops of occupation in Austria during May, June 
and July. Transfer then came to Melsungen, Germany, where the troops 
remained for several weeks.
Having enough points at this time he was transferred to the 69th 
homeward bound division.They left Le Havre, France, on September 7th 
and with a little stormy weather docked in New York seven days later. 
The usual time for the trip is six days.
Conrad was in communications - radio - and then drove for the general 
of his artillary divison. When this general was transferred to the 
states he drove for the colonel of the division artillary.
The strong ties that hold and bind together a group of fighting men was 
evidenced when Conrad suffered his first attack of malaria. This was at 
the time of the Sicilian campaign, and while he was still in the 
hospital, he learned his division (the noted 3rd) was to go into action 
- so Conrad secured his hospital release and rejoined his group. Twice 
when malaria attacks recurred he took treatment in his own unit in 
order to stay with his group.
Conrad has the Good Conduct Medal, Distinguished Unit Badge, Croix do 
Guerre, Theatre ribbons, Bronze Service Arrowhead, 5 overseas bars, 1 
Service stripe and the Driver and Mechanic's Badge. He has eight battle 
stars, showing participation in the Tunisian campaign, Sicilain 
campaign, Naples Foggia; Rome-Arno; Southern France; Colmar; Rhineland 
and Central Europe.
The engagement of Miss Doris Vetting to this young Valders soldier was 
announced by Miss Vetting's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Walter Vetting on 
April 5, 1942, and now with Conrad's return the couple is planning 
their marriage for October 24th.
