F. G. Harbaugh Dies Suddenly

Funeral Services Sunday Afternoon

  Frank G. Harbaugh, well-known businessman and churchman, died suddenly at 7 
o’clock Friday morning, having been stricken with a heart attack at the farm 
near Crouse’s Mill, Carroll county, which was jointly owned by him and his 
sister, Miss Carrie Harbaugh, and to which he had gone to see about 
preparations for threshing operations.  Mr. Harbaugh was aged 74 years.
  A son of the late Samuel and Mary Anders Harbaugh, he is survived by his 
wife, Mrs. Amanda Hiehl Harbaugh; two sisters, Mrs. Anna Biddinger and Miss 
Carrie Harbaugh, Middleburg; one niece Mrs. Rhea Ramsburg, Baltimore, and one 
nephew, Ray Bollinger, Hyattsville.
  As a young boy, Mr. Harbaugh entered the employ of E. O. Cash, who operated 
the Middleburg warehouse and grain elevator.  When the Thomas Company 
purchased the business, he became manager, continuing in that capacity until 
he bought the agency for himself.  After operating for approximately 20 years, 
he sold the business to Donald Six, about three years ago.
Owned County Farms
  Mr. Harbaugh was deeply interested in farming and owned, in addition to the 
farm held jointly with his sister, two farms in Frederick County and two in 
Carroll County.  He was also a prominent building contractor, having erected 
many homes and a number of larger structures in Maryland and Virginia. 
  Especially active in church activities, Mr. Harbaugh was a life-long member 
of Haugh’s Mt. Zion Lutheran Church, where he had been superintendent of the 
Sunday School, a member of the choir, and a member of the church council at 
various times, serving in that capacity at the time of his death.  He was also 
a member of various committees engaged in the synodical work of the Lutheran 
Church.  Mr. Harbaugh was a director of the Carroll County Mutual Fire 
Insurance Company and a member of the Masonic fraternity.
  The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon, meeting at the late home in 
Middleburg at 2 o’clock, with further services in Haugh’s Mt. Zion Lutheran 
church.  Rev. H. H. Schmidt, pastor of the deceased, will officiate.  
Interment will be mad in the family plot in Woodsboro.  Friends may call at 
the late home after noon today.  C. O. Fuss and Son, Taney town, funeral 
directors.
