DEATH CAME TO OLD SETTLER WHILE IN SLEEP
Joachim Schroeder Had Lived in City 57 Years
Death came to Joachim Schroeder, one of the city's oldest settlers, 
while he was asleep early today, his death occurring at the home 
1207 Division street where he had lived almost continuously during 
the fifty-seven years of his residence in the city. Mr. Schroeder's 
death was due to heart trouble and was wholly unexpected for, while 
he had been failing for some time and was 88 years of age, he was 
remarkably vigorous and was about the house as usual yesterday. He 
made no complaint of feeling ill last night when he retired and was 
apparently sleeping peacefully when his wife, alarmed by his failure 
to appear at the breakfast table went to call him. She was unable 
to arouse him and a physician who was called said that death had 
occurred some time previous.
Early Day Mason
Mr. Schroeder was a native of Mecklenburg, Germany and was born there 
in 1835. He was married there and with his wife and two children of 
the family came to America in 1866, locating in this city where he has 
since resided. Mr. Schroeder was a mason by trade and one of the early 
day men in that trade here, having assisted in the erection of many of 
the old buildings. For some years he had been retired.
Besides his wife Mr. Schroeder is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Otto 
Gerpheide and Mrs. Henry Schroeder, Clark street, this city and by 
thirteen grandchildren and one great grandchild.
Funeral services will probably be held Saturday afternoon.

this city and Manitowoc county, passed away at 9:30 a.m. Sunday at his

they resided for two years when they returned to Kiel. For many years
Mr. Schroeder was employed as delivery man by Rudolph Hein and later
by the Kiel Woodenware company.
On February 21, 1935, Mr. and Mrs. Schroeder had the honor of observing
their seventieth wedding anniversary with a worship service at St. Peter
Evangelical and Reformed church. Following this service many relatives
and friends gathered at the home. The couple at that time received a

John H. Schroeder, Former Mayor, Industrialist Dies
Was Patient at Hospital a Week
John H. Schroeder, 83, three times mayor of Manitowoc, and prominent 
in the industrial life of Manitowoc a quarter of a century ago, died 
Sunday morning at the Holy Family hospital.
Mr. Schroeder, who for the past two and a half years had been living 
with a son, Alfred, at Panama City, Fla., returned to the city a week 
ago today and since had been a patient at the hospital. He retired from 
active business life in 1938.
Funeral services for the former mayor will be held at 2 p.m. Thursday 
at the Frazier mortuary chapel, in charge of the Knights of Pythias, of 
which he was a member. The Rev. C.H. Phipps will officiate. Interment 
will be in Evergreen cemetery.
Mr. Schroeder was born in this city in 1862, the son of the late Mr. and 
Mrs. Christoph Schroeder. He was educated in the city schools and took up 
the study of photography under Hugo Klingholz. After two years he became 
a carpenter and on completing his apprenticeship went to Chicago and 
Milwaukee, where he was employed for the next seven years.
Founded Building Supply Firm
In the spring of 1890 Mr. Schoreder returned to Manitowoc and six years 
later founded the Manitowoc Building Supply company, which he headed. 
The mill was then located at the present site of the Soo depot. A few 
years later a new plant was erected at York and North Fifth streets.
He served as mayor of Manitowoc during World War I, being elected in 1917 
and renamed to a second term in 1919. He was again named chief executive 
of the city in 1927, serving his third two-year term.
Taking the civic helm four days before war was delcared on Germany, Mr. 
Schroeder's first move was to save the Goodrich Transit company shops for 
the city. The company was pressed for room on the island, where the Ship 
Building company was expanding, and considered moving to Muskegon, Mich. 
Through the efforts of Mayor Schroeder the city procured a site for the 
shops on the east bank of the river at the foot of State street, retaining 
that industry for Manitowoc.
Pioneered For Better Streets
Mr. Schroeder was also mayor when the new Tenth street bridge was built, 
and pioneered in a street paving program that resulted in more than three 
miles 
(Continued on Page 2, Co. 5)
JOHN SCHROEDER, EX-MAYOR, DIES
(continued from Page 1)
of concrete streets being built in various parts of the city. He also 
pushed a program of park purchases, which included Lincoln park, a 52-acre 
tract, West field and Pulaski park in the seventh ward. He also instituted 
bathing beaches on the north and south sides.
It was during Mr. Schroeder's administration that the city acquired the 
old Victoria hotel property on Franklin street, as the location for a new 
city hall. Previously the city had leased city hall quarters on South Eighth 
street. He also carried through a program of expansion of Evergreen cemetery 
which eliminated need for locating a cemetery at a new site.
Active Republican
Mr. Schroeder spent much time in various civic projects in Manitowoc during 
his 50 years in business here. He was one of the organizers of the old 
Manitowoc club, founded by the late Mayor William Rahr. He was treasurer 
for years of the old third ward school district.
Mr. Schroeder was always active in the affairs of the Republican party. He 
was a delegate from Wisconsin at the national convention that nominated 
Herbert Hoover for president.
He married Miss Marie Raeuber of this city in 1893. She died in 1922.
Survivors are two daughters, Mrs. Maurice Thompson,of Dundalk, Md., Mrs. 
Harold Maas, of Topaz, Utah, three sons, Edward H., of Washington, D.C., 
Herbert K., of route 4, Manitowoc, and Alfred W., Panama city, Fla.; and 
12 grandchildren. Three brothers, Henry, Charles and Otto, preceded him 
in death.
The body may be viewed at the Frazier mortuary from 2 p.m. Wednesday until 
the hour of the services.
