-- May 1892
Died, in Tuesday afternoon, May 3rd, 1892, after an illness of only one week, Mrs. W. Wimmer. The deceased, formerly Miss Anna Widerkin, was born in 1834, in the neighborhood of Munster, Germany, and was, therefore, at the time of her death, 58 years old. At a very early age she came to America with her parents, who settled near Piqua, Ohio, where they have since remained. The deceased was married about 40 years ago to Mr. Wendel Wimmer, which union was blessed with eight children, one son and seven daughters, who are all grown up, and several are married. Mrs. Wimmer was a diligent worker on the farm, never grumbling about too much work, but always looking to the welfare of her family. The funeral, which was attended by all her children and relatives, took place on Thursday morning, May 5th, 1892, with a solemn Requiem High Mass, at St. Boniface German Catholic Church, after which the remains were interred in the Catholic Cemetery, of Piqua. May she rest in Peace.
