********
Louis Namz, Sr., one of the pioneer residents of this place, answered 
the summons of Death Thursday evening. He was 76 years of age and his 
demise was due primarily to infirmities incident to old age. Mr. Namz 
was born in Germany and when a young man came to this country with his 
parents and other relatives, settling at Two Rivers where he married 
Miss Albertine Leitz and then moved to a farm in Cooperstown.  
Shortly after this he enlisted in the Civil war where he served a term 
of 18 months, and fought in a number of important battles. He returned 
here where he spent the last half century of his life. His wife died 
in 1880. Later he married Elizabeth Schnesa who with five children now 
survive him. They are Walter, Edward and August at home. The children 
surviving by the former marriage are Mrs. Lydia Stueps of Milwaukee, 
Mrs. Ella Roebein of Pittsfield, Mrs. Martha McKuen of Green Bay and 
George Namz of this place. Mr. Namz was a kind and indulgent father, 
a good neighbor and a man who was respected by all who knew him. The 
high esteem in which he was held was proved by the large number who 
attended the last sad rites and followed the remains to their last 
resting place on Sunday afternoon. Rev. W. Gleaser performed the 
funeral services.
