NEILLSVILLE PRESS (Neillsville, Clark County, Wis.) 07/18/1929 Buelow, Ferdinand
(6 Mar 1857 - 10 Jul 1929) Ferdinand Buelow,
one of the older residents of this locality, died at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. John Sollberger Jr., in the town of Hewett, at 8
o'clock Wednesday morning, July 10th, 1929, aged 72 years, 4 months
and 4 days. About three years ago Mr. Buelow's health began to
fail, a condition of anemia developing, which hospital treatment
seemed for a time to relieve, but the progress of the disease
continued, undermining his strength. Mr. Buelow was
born at Montreal, Canada, and grew to manhood there on a farm. His
parents moved to Sauk Co., Wis. and he with them, when still a
young man. In 1907 he moved to Clark County near Humbird, and in
1911 came to Neillsville, and for two years carried on the Hamilton
Hotel. From there he moved to the farm of Judge O'Neill in the town
of Hewett and had charge of this farm for ten years. He then moved
to the Wm. West farm in the town of Grant, operating this farm for
two years. After his health began to fail he and his wife went to
live with their son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. John
Sollberger Jr., where he died. Mr. Buelow was a good farmer, a man
of Upright principles, and a good citizen in every way. He is survived by
his wife and six children: Richard of Ingleside, Ill.; Caroline,
Mrs. Wm. Eschenbach of Merrimac, Wis.; Kate, Mrs. Hugh Van Horn of
Humbird; Emma, Mrs. John Sollberger of Columbia; and Lillie, Mrs.
Hollie Moffatt of Clinton. He leaves also two sisters, Mrs. Charles
Neuman of Osseo and Mrs. Louis Howlett of Oshkosh. The funeral was
held at Columbia Chapel after a brief service at the Sollberger
home, Saturday afternoon, Rev. Motzkus officiating. Burial took
place in Neillsville Cemetery. © Every submission is protected by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act
