Eugene Rofinot
Greenwood, Clark Co., Wisconsin
When Sarah Rufinot died 9 Aug 1900, their 15 yr. old son, Eugene (1885) received a telegraph from his brother, Nelson, whom the family had not heard from since the spring, saying Duluth, MN authorities informing them that another brother Louis (1875), who was with Nelson the previous winter, was dead there. The address of Nelson not being known, he was unaware of either the death of his brother or his mother, leaving Eugene to bear the double affliction alone. Both Louis and his wife Sarah are buried in the Greenwood, WI City Cemetery.
