Two Brothers are Drowned Near Kiel on Sunday
One Loses Life Trying a Rescue
Elder of the Rose Brothers Drowns Trying to Rescue Younger Brother
Kiel, Wis., - (Special) – Two brothers who could not swim, Helmuth Rose, 17, 
and Edmond(sic) Rose, 13, lost their lives in Sheboygan river near Kiel at 
2 p.m. Sunday. The younger brother drowned first, and his older brother lost 
his life in an heroic attempt to save him.
The double tragedy occurred near Rockville, which is located not far from Kiel. 
The boys started bathing there when Edmond suddenly went down in a deep hole 
where there was a strong current.  Helmuth hurried to his rescue, but also was 
pulled under by the current.
A witness to the tragedy who could not get to the boys in time to save them, 
rushed to a neighbor’s home for help.  The neighbor in turn called to Kiel fire 
department to have them drag the river for the bodies.  Edmond’s body was not 
recovered until 4 p.m., and Helmuth’s body an hour later.
Funeral Wednesday
The bodies of the youths were taken to the C. J. Meiselwitz funeral parlors in 
Kiel and will be removed to the home of their parents near Kiel, where funeral 
services will be held at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday.  At 2 p.m. services will be held 
at St. Peter’s Reformed church.
The victims are the sons of Mr. and Mrs. William Rose, who came to this country 
from Alten-Essen in Rhinelander, Germany, about seven years ago.  The family 
originally settled at Brillion, but came to their farm near Kiel in 1926.  Both 
boys were born in Germany.
The survivors include their parents, two brothers, Alfred of Milwaukee, and Walter 
of Hinsdale, Ill.; two sisters, Mrs. Hattie Axnichs of Milwaukee, and Miss Anna 
Rose of Milwaukee.
The mother of the boys has been hysterical since the tragedy and is in the care 
of a physician.

Victims of Double Drowning Laid to Rest at Kiel Today
Kiel – Impressive funeral services for Helmuth Rose, 16, and Edmund Rose, 
age 13, brothers, who were the victims of drowning in the Sheboygan river, 
near Kiel, on Sunday afternoon, were held at the home of their parents, Mr. 
and Mrs. William Rose, near Kiel, this afternoon at 1:30 o’clock, followed 
by services at the St. Peter Reformed church here at 2 o’clock.
Because of the absence of the Rev. E. L. Worthman, pastor of the church, who 
left on Sunday afternoon with his family on a vacation, the bereaved family 
requested that the Rev. H. P. Jordon of Seymoure, a very close friend of the 
Rose family and of the Rev. Mr. Worthman, to officiate at the last sad rites. 
The Rev. Jordon’s sermon was impressive as well as consoling.
The members of the Senior choir of the church sang, “Engel Des Friedens,” 
“Hoert Vas Des Vater’s Stimme Sprigt,” and “Sicher In Jesu Armen.”
Pallbearers for Helmuth were the following:  D. H. Drumm, Edward Reineck, 
Gustave Stoelting Jr., Victor Kaufmann, Willis Fluhr, and Erwin Schmidt. Six 
boys of the confirmation class of the St. Peter Reformed church of this year, 
of which Edmund was a member acted as his pallbearers.  They were:  Wilfred 
Schreiber, Willard Stecker, Elmer Schneider, Melvin Baumann, Melvin Happel, 
and Melvin Ruh.  The Rockville school children, classmates of Edmund, and the 
members of the confirmation class attended the funeral in a body at the home 
and at the church.  Burial was made in the Kiel cemetery.
The home of the bereaved family was visited by about two hundred friends and 
relatives on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday from far and near who came to express 
their deepest sympathy to the Rose family.  The auditorium in the church was 
filled to capacity and it was difficult to accommodate all the people.
The many beautiful floral tributes which were offered showed the highest 
esteem in which the two youths were held.  Relatives and friends from Milwaukee, 
Seymour, Brillion, Reedsville, Hinsdale, Plymouth, Chilton, Hilbert, Sheboygan, 
New Holstein, Kiel and vicinity attended the funeral.  This funeral was one of 
the largest ever held within the last three years.

HERMAN ROSINSKY   cemetery #44

From Der Nord Westen, 03 Dec. 1903:
Sudden death Thurs. evening last week of Hermann Rozsinsky, the well-known
furniture merchant. Mr. Rozsinsky felt perfectly well all day and that evening
attended the Thanksgiving service at the Lutheran Church. He had just started 
singing when he sank back into his seat. Naturally the service was interrupted 
and nearby Dr. Luhmann summoned. He could only report that the ill man had been 
stricken with a heart attack and that he was probably in his last moments. Death 
followed shortly. His body was taken by ambulance to the family residence on
Buffalo Street. Mr. Rozsinsky was born 07 Oct. 1852 in Grabow, Pomerania, and 
came to Manitowoc as a 15-yr. old with his parents and has lived here ever since. 
Many years he worked in the establishment of W. Rahr Sons Company here, then 
several years ago bought the furniture store of Anton Vogt, which he operated with 
his sons. About 5 yrs. ago he became seriously ill, and it is now thought that 
heart trouble may have begun during that illness. Since then he has felt fine 
except for a cold a few weeks ago. His sudden death was entirely unanticipated and 
came as a terrible blow to his family. The deceased is survived by his father, his 
widow and 3 children. His funeral was held from the Lutheran Church Sun. afternoon 
among a large number of mourners.

ELIZABETH ROTHMANN   cemetery #82

Suicide Victim to be Buried at Kiel on Saturday
Kiel – Funeral services for Mrs. George Rothmann, 65, who committed suicide at 
her home here Wednesday, will be held Saturday at 2 p.m. at the home, 815 N. 
Seventh street, with interment in Kiel cemetery.  Rev. Edward L. Worthmann, 
pastor of St. Peter Reformed church, will officiate.

the late Anton and Elizabeth Dexheimer.  She was born on a farm in the town of 
Rhine on July 14, 1865.  She was married September 27, 1891, to George Rothmann 
of Garnet, Wis.  The couple made their home here.  After operating a blacksmith 
shop here for a number of years, Mr. Rothmann retired in 1912. He died two weeks 
ago, and despondency over his loss is believed to have prompted Mrs. Rothmann’s 
act.  Relatives said she had been morose.
Survivors are a sister, Mrs. Peter Schueler of Marshfield, and three brothers, 
Anton Dexheimer of Sherwood, William Dexheimer of Sheboygan, and Edward Dexheimer

JULIUS AND HELEN ROUBIK   cemetery #16

BOY AND GIRL LOSE LIVES IN DENMARK FIRE 
Children of Jules Roebeck(sic) are Burned to Death 
(By Associated Press) GREEN BAY, May 12-
Two children, a boy and a girl, aged 18 and 13 respectively, son and 
daughter of Jules Roebeck living at New Denmark, this county, were 
burned to death in a fire which started in the rooms occupied by the 
family over a blacksmith shop. The father was severely burned about 
the head and arms, while trying to get his children out. Roebeck, 
with his wife and other three children, were saved. It is thought the 
fire originated in the forge of the blacksmith shop. 
 -  New Denmark is located just over the Manitowoc county line, two 
miles north of Cooperstown, and the Roebeck family is well known in 
this county.

DENMARK 
About 11 o'clock Tuesday evening a blaze was discovered in the blacksmith 
shop of Jules Roubeck, north of here. Neighbors rushed to the scene but 
the fire had made too much headway to be extinguished with buckets and 
water. Mr. and Mrs. Roubeck, who with their family, lived in the rooms 
over the shop, escaped from the burning building through a window, and 
the youngest daughter aged 10 years, who also jumped from the building 
suffered a broken arm, while the oldest son and daughter, aged 18 and 16 
respectively, being unaware of the danger which surrounded them, remained 
in the building and were burned to death. The origin of the fire is 
surrounded in mystery.

One of the saddest funerals held here for years was that of Julius and

in one coffin and buried in one grave. Julius was 18 years old, Helen 13.

jumping to the ground from the windows of their bedrooms. The bodies of 
the two children were found in the ruins the next morning. The girl's 
body was found on the springs of her bed. It was thought she was overcome 
by smoke and unable to save herself. The boy's body was found near the

MINNA ROXIEN   cemetery #44

DEATH ENDS HER SUFFERING.
Mrs. Joachim Roxien Dies after Undergoing an Operation.
Mrs. Joachim Roxien an old and highly respected resident of this 
city died at her home, 1401 South Main street last night. A 
surgical operation, or the nervous shock produced thereby, was 
the direct cause of her death, though she suffered for more than 
twenty years and the operation, though considered desperate, was 
resorted to as an only hope of prolonging her life. It was a 
chance between life and death and as such was taken. The operation 
was for the removal of foreign growth in the gall glands.
The deceased was 55 years of age and leaves a husband and three 
children. Though sorely afflicted though years of suffering, she 
bore her trials with true womanly patience and resignation, and 
those who knew her best can testify to her unselfish considerate 
nature. To the bereaved husband and children the sympathy of the 
community will be exteneded.
The funeral will be held at the residence at 2 o'clock Sunday 
after noon.
