OBITUARY
  MOSKOP  -  Mrs. Fred Moskop, wife of Fred Moskop, Sr. and mother of Herman
and Fred Moskop of this place, died early Sunday morning, aged 79 years, 11
months and 13 days.  She was a sufferer from rheumatic attacks, and this
dreadful disease, about fourteen years ago, took such a hold on her that
she could not leave the house, and for the past five years was confined to
her bed.  her suffering was a long and painful one and she needed constant
care, which was given to her as well as human will and knowledge can do it,
by her aged husband and son Herman and wife, with whom she had made her
home.  Although she seemed to fail the past week, her departure on Sunday
morning, came somewhat unexpected.
  Deceased’s maiden name was Louisa Wolter, and she was born Nov. 22, 1832,
in Pommern, Germany.  There she was married to John Tuchtenhagen, and this
union was blessed with six children, two sons and four daughters.  The
family came to this county in the early days and settled down in the
township of Green Isle.  Here all the hardships of pioneer life were
experienced by the young people and were increased when death took away the
husband and left the deceased a widow with six small children.  In 1868 she
was married to Fred Moskop and bore him four children, 3 sons and 1
daughter.
  Peacefully she slumbered into another and, as we truly hope, a better
life, where there shall be no more death, neither sorrow nor crying, nor
shall there be any more pain.
  She leaves a husband, ten children, 58 grand children and 42 great-grand
children.  The funeral was held yesterday afternoon at 1 o’clock, Rev.
Heidmann officiating.
