Wilhelm F. Suckow, one of the first settlers in Moyer Township, passed 
away on Friday morning at the age of 87 years.
Wilhelm Fredrick Suckow was born July 29, 1840 in Neumark, Germany. He

and took up a homestead in Moyer Township in 1873, which was his home 
until his death. They made the trip from Wisconsin by wagon with a team 
of oxen. Mr. and Mrs. Suckow celebrated their golden wedding anniversary 
in 1922. He is survived by his wife, two sons and three daughters, Mrs. 
Minnie Koosmann, Frank Suckow of Moyer Township and William and Miss Anna 
on the home farm and Mrs. Hubert Wrege of Mellen, Wisconsin. Thirty 
grandchildren and two great-grandchildren also survive with two brothers,

R.H. Ehrenberg (Augusta) of this city and Mrs. Christ Lent of New Ulm.
