Postville Review, Fri., 8 June 1906. (condensed).

On Sunday, 27 May 1906, occurred the death of Mrs. Elsie Schroeder. She had been in poor health but her death came sudden and unexpectedly.

Mrs. Schroeder, nee Garms, was born 3 Feb. 1860, in Clinton Co., Iowa. She was married to Heinrich Kluss in Oct. of 1877, which union was blessed with six children, 4 girls and 2 boys. The husband died in 1892. On 16 Apr. 1901 Mrs. Kluss re-married to John Shroeder, who survives her.

The funeral was held from the home and St. Paul's Luttheran church Tuesday of last week. Despite inclement weather the funeral was largely attended.

Note: A separate article of the same paper and date says, "Two brothers - John and Carl C. Schroeder - each bereft of a wife within the short space of ten days is as sad and singular a mortality record as we have ever chronicled. The wife of the former passing away 27 May, and of the latter 6 June."

Submitter is not related.
