AGED RESIDENT DIES SUNDAY
FREDERICK MITTMAN PASSES AWAY AT HIS HOME IN FRUITLAND TOWNSHIP.
The death of Frederick Mittman occurred at his home in Fruitland Township on Sunday, June 16, after a brief illness. For over sixty years, he was a resident of Muscatine County and was one of the most respected older residents.
Mr. Mittman was born on October 17, 1825, at Moeckmehl, in the kingdom of Wurttemberg, Germany. Over fifty years ago, he was united in marriage to Katherine Kleinbach. In April 1853, the couple left their fatherland and arrived in New York on July 9, after a voyage of 62 days. They went to Marietta, Ohio, where they lived for one year before coming to Muscatine. In April 1854, after nine years’ work at the blacksmith trade, he moved to Fruitland Township, where he has since resided. His wife, three sons — George A., John, and Andrew — and one daughter, Mrs. August Huttig, survive his demise. One son, Robert, preceded him in death about two years ago. Twenty-four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren also mourn his death.
Mr. M. was a member of the German Evangelical church and was a good, Christian man.
The funeral services will be held this afternoon at 2 o’clock from the German Evangelical church in this city.
