Moritz, Anna J. (7 MAY 1888 - 12 APR 1935)

Mrs. Carl G. Moritz passed away at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfield April 12th after an illness of several weeks.

Anna Julia Christian, daughter of Joseph and Magdalena Christian was born in Romania, May 7, 1888. She came to this country in company with her two sisters. On April 1, 1911 she was united in marriage to Carl G. Moritz and with her husband engaged in farming until 1921 at South Wayne, Wis., when they moved to Clark County.

The deceased leaves to mourn her loss, one son, Carl, at home; two daughters, Mrs. John E. Lindsey of the Town of Fremont and Mrs. John Mothershead of Seattle, Wash., and two sisters, Mrs. Elizabeth Kiss and Mrs. Magdalena Wershing of Chicago.

She was a member of the South Wayne Methodist Episcopal church and the Order of Eastern Star of Loyal.

Funeral services were held from the M. E. church here at 2:00 Monday afternoon, Rev. A. N. Chapman, officiating. Interment was made in the Loyal cemetery, with the Loyal Eastern Star Lodge taking charge of the services. Pallbearers were: Aug. Fricke, Frank Coryell, Ed. Kreuser, John Steiner, Geo. Zuehlke and Albert Davel.

Mrs. Moritz was held in affectionate regard by her many friends. She was a devoted wife and a fond mother, giving faithful attention to her home and family. She was a good friend, ever ready to be of service to her neighbors and always helping in case of distress. Kindly and cheerful in manner, with sympathetic interest toward the welfare of others, she justly gained the high esteem in which she was held.

Her husband, son, daughters and other relatives have the sympathy of all in their sorrow.
