Baldwin, Joseph (1813? - 2 Dec. 1893)

Joseph Baldwin, age 80 years, and Mercy Baldwin, aged 74 years, died at their home in Sheboygan county, the former on Saturday, Dec. 2nd, and the latter on Thursday, Nov. 30th, and were both interred together on Sunday, Dec. 3rd.

The above were the parents of Mrs. Phillip Henkel, of this city, and were among the most respected people of Sheboygan county, where they had resided for forty three years. They leave two sons and three daughters to mourn their death.

It is but a short time, a year or two, since Mr. Baldwin visited his daughter, at this place, and while here made many friends and acquaintances who will regret to learn of his death. He was a man well posted on various subjects of interest, a bright and entertaining conversationalist. He lived to a good ripe age and died highly respected.
