The Ionia Daily Sentinel, Thursday, August 3, 1944
Funeral services are to be held Saturday morning in Detroit for Edward 
Abfalter, 69, former Ionia resident who died at his home there Tuesday 
following a brief illness.  He had undergone an abdominal operation several 
years ago.  Burial will be in Detroit.  Surviving are the widow, Mrs. Alice 
Abfalter; eight children, Edward, Margaret, Genevieve, Winifred, Paul, 
Detroit; Hubert and Francis, in armed service, and Josephine, of Three Rivers; 
nine grandchildren; a brother, Frank Abfalter, Ionia, and two sisters, Mrs. 
George Reiser and Mrs. Mary Lepler, Lake Odessa. 

Born in Westphalia September 9, 1875, Mr. Abfalter came to Ionia when a boy 
and later learned the trade of clothing cutter at the Michigan Clothing 
company plant, later the Sorosis.  For 12 years he was employed at the 
Marquette branch prison, being transferred to the Michigan reformatory here 
about nine year ago.  Three years ago the family moved to Detroit, where he 
plied his trade.
