Unknown Paper - December 1915  
   Sunday morning shortly after 8 o'clock, George Inhofer passed away 
at his home on North Franklin Street.  Death was due to a stroke of 
apoplexy from which the deceased had been ill for six weeks.  For a 
time it looked as tho he was recovering after he had suffered the first 
stroke.  A relapse, however, set in and the end came Sunday.  The last
three weeks he was confined to his bed.
   The deceased was born in Schillert's Wiessen, Bavaria, Germany, 
November 15, 1840 and was therefore 75 years of age when he died.  He 
came to American with his parents when he was a lad twelve years old.  
The first three years in this country he spent in New York.  Then the 
family came west to Minnesota and settled in the eastern part of Nicollet 
County. Three years later they moved to West Newton in the same county 
where the deceased followed the occupation of farming until seven years 
ago when he moved to Gibbon and two years ago to New Ulm where he has 
since resided.  He was married in 1868 to Miss Agnes Mickel who survives 
him. Of the 9 children born to them the following seven survive: George 
of Winthrop, Joseph and Louis of West Newton; John and Mrs. Milo Current 
of Home Township; William and Mrs. Albert Flor of New Ulm.  He is also 
survived by four sisters; Mrs. Frances Eckart, Gibbon, Mrs. Barbara Marti 
and Mrs. Jospehine Huber, St. George and Mrs. Theresia Bastian of Ridgely 
township.
   At the time of his death the deceased was a member of the St. Joseph
Society of St. George.  The funeral was held yesterday morning with 
services at Holy Trinity Catholic Church in this city.  The remains 
were then taken to St. George where funeral services were held at the 
Catholic Church of that place at 10:15, Rev. Pozek officiating.  
Interment was made in the Catholic cemetery at St. George.
