McGregor, Iowa, June 3
The body of Jeremiah Ryan, who died at St. Joseph's hospital in Dubuque May 28, was brought to McGregor for burial. Mr. Ryan was an old resident of this place, having come here in November, 1864. For 26 years he was connected with the Stauer & Daubenberger Lumber company and had a large business acquaintance through Clayton and Allamakee counties. Some years ago he gave up work because of his advancing age and in 1910 moved to Dubuque with his wife. Since her death two years ago he has been at St. Joseph's hospital. He was 80 years of age at the time of death. Of the eight children who were born to Mr. and Mrs. Ryan, five are living: Edward G. and John F. of Des Moines; Margaret of St. Paul; Estelle, Great Falls, Mont. and William of Milwaukee. John, William and Margaret brought the remains of their father to McGregor for burial. Services were held in St. Mary's church and interment was made in the Catholic cemetery.
