  HUBERT PASS, of Wilmont village, is one of the pioneers of the county. He was

born in Prussia Dec. 11, 1860, the son of John H. and Elizabeth (Cochmen) Pass.

Both parents live with their son in Wilmont, the former at the age of 84, the

latter aged 90 years.



  The family, consisting of father, mother, and five children, came to America

in 1862 and located at Shakopee, Scott county, Minn. There Hubert was raised and

educated. The father came to Nobles county in the fall of 1876 and took a

homestead claim on section 28, Willmont township. In February, of the following

year, the father and our subject came again to the county and have resided here

continuously ever since. Hubert lived on the home farm until 1893, when he

opened a saloon in St. Kilian. This he conducted personally until 1900, and he

still owns the property. When the village of Wilmont started in 1900 he moved to

the new town, and in partnership with Theo. Slottman erected a building and

engaged in the saloon business. He conducted the business until the spring of

1908, since which time he has lived a retired life. He owns residence property

in the village and the saloon building.



  Mr. Pass was first married at Red Wing, Minn., June 7, 1887, to Lillie

Hellmeller, who died September 22, 1894. To them were born two children—Joseph,

born Nov. 17, 1888, and Frank, born June 10, 1893. The second marriage of Mr.

Pass occurred at St. Kilian June 7, 1897, when he married Barbara Schmit, who

was born in Chicago May 9, 1878. They are the parents of the following named

children: Lena, born March 1, 1898; Lillie, born Feb. 4, 1900; Henry, born June

8, 1903; Lizzie, born July 4, 1905. Mr. and Mrs. Pass are members of the

Catholic church. He was township clerk of Willmont five years.
