Delphos Herald, 24 November 1920
Albert Burkmeyer, one of Fort Jennings' most prominent residents, answered the 
summons of death at 12:15 Tuesday afternoon in Saint Vincent's Hospital in 
Toledo. A complication of diseases caused his demise and he was a patient at 
the hospital ten days previous. Before going to Toledo, Mr. Burkmeyer took a 
course of treatments at Battle Creek, Mich., being in that city seven weeks.
He was born July 16, 1864, a son of Stephen and Katherine Burkmeyer, at 
Tippecanoe City, O. His marriage to Miranda Kerschner took place in Delphos on 
May 17, 1891, and Mrs. Burkmeyer died at Ft. Jennings on February 3, 1905. Mr 
Burkmeyer lived in Delphos all his life up to May 1902, when he moved to Ft. 
Jennings. He conducted a saloon and restaurant in Fort Jennings up to August, 
1920, when he sold his business and retired on account of ill health. He is 
survived by the following children: Mrs. Roy Kortokrax of Ft. Wayne; Mrs. 
Raymond Stallkamp of Delphos; Harold and Charles Burkmeyer of Toledo; and 
Margaret, who is Sister M. Eulalia of the Franciscan order, teaching in the 
parochial school at Paulding; George, Leo, and Katherine Burkmeyer at home. Two 
sisters, Mrs. Mary Daub of Ft. Jennings and Miss Katherine L. Burkmeyer of 
Toledo; and one half-brother, Peter Hemker, of near Landeck, also survive. 
Funeral services will be held at Ft. Jennings Friday morning at St. Joseph's 
church at nine o'clock, and interment will be made in St. Joseph's cemetery. 
The remains were brought to Ft. Jennings from Toledo Wednesday morning.
