Windmaiser, Mrs. Joe (4 Jul 1849 - 22 Feb 1929)

Mrs. C. Bunke is in receipt of a letter from the Windmaisers, for many years residents of this village (Dorchester, Clark County, Wis.), who have been making their home at Spokane, Wash., since they left ehre some twenty years ago. The letter tells of the death of Mrs. Joe Windmaiser, Sr., which occurred on Feb. 22, 1929, of cancer. Mrs. Windmaiser was 79 years old last July 4th. Mr. Windmaiser passed away five years ago and Joe, the oldest son, died a year later. The surviving children are Sophia, Frank and Adolph. Adolph is on the police force at Spokane and six of his comrade policemen acted as pallbearers at his mother’s funeral. Many old timers will remember Mr. Windmaiser as a harness maker and the family used to live across the road from the Dr. Nedry property on the west side of town.
