Journal Of IL State Historical Society, Vol 14 1921
Mrs. Mary Fischer died of old age, February 11th, at the home of her daughter 
Mrs. Catherine Pakulla at 416 Bixby Court, Chicago. Mrs. Fischer was born in 
Posen, Poland in May, 1811. She came to the United States forty-three years 
ago with her daughter and son-in-law, Raymond Pakulla. Despite her advanced 
age, her faculties were clear up until a few hours before her death. In recent 
years her eyesight had failed to the extent she was unable to read, but she 
kept up with current events and was a keen conversationalist on topics of the 
day. She is survived by five children and eight grandchildren.
