East Liverpool Daily Crisis - 13 Mar 1902 - pg 5
John Peter Hommel, aged 92, died Wednesday afternoon about 4 o’clock, at his 
home on Main Street, below Fifteenth, after an illness of about six weeks, 
having contracted grip fever. He was one of the oldest men living in 
Wellsville, and was born May 28, 1809, in Saxe Meiningen, Germany. In 1832 he 
wedded Miss Margaret Fritz, a native of Saxe Meiningen, who died 18 years ago.
The deceased emigrated to America, settling in Pittsburgh, PA in 1846. There he 
plied the vocation of a tailor for many years and had many old acquaintances in 
Pittsburgh. He came to Wellsville in 1868, but for several years has lived in 
retirement.
 Five children survive. They are: Mrs. Katherine Barger, Mrs. Margaret 
Shintelm, Webster, PA; George Hommel, Pittsburgh; Ferdinand Hommel, Ohio Pyle, 
PA, and Miss Mary Hommel, Wellsville.
Mr. Hommel was a member of the St. Johns Evangelical Lutheran church, East 
Liverpool, and the funeral will be conducted by Rev. J.G. Reinartz from the 
residence at 2 pm Saturday, the interment being in Spring Hill cemetery.
