Schoen, Henry B. (99^th Birthday - 11 November 1965)

Henry B. Schoen, believed to be one of Clark County’s oldest living residents, is planning to celebrate his 99^th birthday today (Thursday).

Wednesday evening he was honored at a birthday party at the home of his son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Frank (Betty) Gutman.  Joining were his children, Mr. and Mrs. Gutman; Mr. and Mrs. Louis (Katherine) Koran of Marshfield; Mr. and Mrs. Otto (Lou) Hainz of rural Neillsville; Mr. and Mrs. Edward Schoen of Rt.2 Neillsville; Mr. and Mrs. William E. (Eleanor) Neville of the Town of Levis; and John Schoen, with whom Mr. Schoen makes his home.

Also attending were Mr. and Mrs. Walter Schoen of the Town of Weston, and Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Alstot of Neillsville.  A son, Henry of Neillsville, is unable to be present.

Mr. Schoen is still active at fishing and splitting wood, despite his advanced years.
