The Portland Observer, Thursday, July 20, 1933

Mrs. Will Pohl, 41, died Tuesday forenoon at her home south of town a short 
time after her sixth child, a baby girl, was born. Funeral services will be 
held at nine o’clock Friday forenoon at St. Patrick church.  Burial will be 
made in Portland cemetery.  Mrs. Pohl’s maiden name was Josephine Knoop.  She 
was born in Westphalia and 19 years ago last fall was united in marriage to 
Mr. Pohl, the couple starting housekeeping on the place known as the old T. J. 
Lockwood farm near the Barr schoolhouse, where the death of Mrs. Pohl occurred.

Besides the husband Mrs. Pohl is survived by six children all at home.  They 
are Inus, Anna, Florence, Agnes, Janet and Mary, the latter being the baby 
born Tuesday.  A mother, Mrs. Knoop, of Westphalia and four sisters and three 
brothers also survive, Mrs. Joseph Rademacher and Mrs. Will Weaver of Fowler, 
Mrs. John A. Pohl and Mrs. Oscar Smith of Westphalia; Frank Pohl of Pewamo, 
and Ferdinand and Albert Pohl of Westphalia.

The child Inus should be Linus.
