   (b. 20 Feb 1898/d. 11 May 2002/at Newton, Manitowoc, WI/SSDI)
   Born on February 21, 1898 in Meeme, Hilda grew up on the family 
   farm. When she married Edgar Albrecht in 1925, they ran the home 
   farm. Like other farm wives, Hilda canned, made butter and smoked 
   meat. She recalls, “the best bread I baked was in the outdoor oven. 
   When the wood was burned, the oven was hot enough to bake bread.”
   Hilda thought the telephone was the nicest invention because it 
   helped farm people overcome their isolation. Today, she enjoys 
   exercise classes and playing bingo. Hilda believes the hard work 
   she did on the farm has helped her to remain healthy and active.

   Death notice in the Manitowoc Herald, 21 July 1855:
   George Austin drowned when a canoe paddle accidentally struck his 
   head while he was swimming. He was struck by Patrick Smith.
   ********
   FATAL OCCURENCE.-Geo. Austin, a young man aged 22 years, was drowned at 
   Baker's Mills, on Saturday last under circumstances peculiarly distressing. 
   He was bathing in the river, and two or three of his companions were in a 
   canoe, which, in sport, he tried to overturn. One of the young men in the 
   canoe, attempted to splash the water in his face with the paddle, but 
   missing his aim, the blow fell on the face of Austin, who immediately sunk. 
   A post mortem examination by Dr. Zeilly, proved that the facial artery was 
   ruptured by the force of the blow, and a Coroners jury gave a verdict in 
   accordance with the above facts.

   Vol. 1 No. 42, 2nd page, under Local Items 
   Fell overboard. As the steamer Detroit was making fast to the pier at Two Rivers, 
   on Wednesday, a man named Jacob Avers attempted to jump ashore, and fell into the 
   water. At first he seemed to be able to keep himself afloat, and no immediate 
   apprehension of danger was felt for him. Planks were immediately thrown in the 
   water, which he failed to reach and Mr. Goit, mate of the Detroit, lowered himself 
   by a rope in order to rescue him, when suddenly the unfortunate man seemed to lose 
   all power, and sank, when all efforts to save him were unavailing. He was very 
   much intoxicated, which accounts for his sudden helplessness. We were on board 
   the boat at the time, and when we left, the body had not been recovered.

BOUC, OTTO Aug 18, 1899/Oct 12, 1994/SSDI BOUTIN, SON OF FRANK Fire in Two Rivers - Two Children Burned to Death From Mr. John Wright, the Two Rivers mail carrier, we obtain these particulars of a most heartrending occurence: About five o'clock last Friday afternoon a fire broke out in a barn belonging to Mr. Gottfried Berger, in Two Rivers. The flames speedily communicated to an adjacent house, owned and occupied as a dwelling by Frank Boutin, and to another barn owned by Jos. Gagnon. The engine and hook and ladder companies soon arrived on the ground, but too late to save the property from destruction. Before the fire was extinguished, a painful rumor became current that two little children - one a son of Frank Boutin, aged four years, and the other, aged five years, a son of the widow Martell - were in the burning barn. The firemen and citizens redoubled their efforts to subdue the flames, and when they had suceeded, an investigation of the ruins confirmed their worst fears. The lifeless bodies of the unfortunate little fellows were found lying on some wet and partially burned straw, in one corner. Both bodies were horribly burned and disfigured, and only one, that of little Boutin, could be recognized. When the body of the other child was lifted up, one of its legs dropped off. It is supposed that the children went into the barn unobserved, and, shutting the door, built a fire on the floor. No outcry was heard, and they were probably suffocated by the smoke before the flames reached them. Mr. and Mrs. Boutin were absent at Green Bay visiting at the time, and Mrs. Martell supposed that her child was safe at home. Milwaukee Daily Sentinel, June 04, 1870, Issue 131, col. F.
