Knop, Peter (? - 16 JUN 1913)

The death of Peter Knop occurred at his home in this city (Greenwood, Clark Co., Wis.) on Monday morning, June 16th, 1913. It was not unexpected by his relatives, as he had been in very poor health for the past year, gradually becoming weaker until his last remaining days were spent in his bed.

Mr. Knop and family came to Greenwood about five years ago. He conducted a shoe making and general repair shop since. He was ever industrious and worked with a vim until his disease , carcinosis of the stomach prevented him from attending to hsi daily occupation, and called him to the other world. His remains were taken to Marinette Tuesday for interment.

Deceased leaves to mourn his loss, a faithful wife, two sons, Joseph of Kiel, and Peter of Marinette, three daughters, Mrs. Edward Sontag of Detroit, Mich., and Anna and Margaret of Milwaukee.
