OBIT   GIEY, JOSEPH  H.   died  12 April  1933

JOSEPH  H. GIEY,  77  DIES OF APOPLEXY
     Mr. Joseph H. Giey, aged 77 years, died suddenly in the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Lillian Kerstetter, Wednesday afternoon at 1:15 o'clock, of a
stroke of apoplexy. Mr. Giey has been in apparent good health until recently
when his advanced age rendered it difficult for him to be about actively. He
paid a visit to his friends downtown Tuesday afternoon preceding the day he
was stricken, and appeared to be in good spirits.
     Mr. Giey was born two miles east of Harrisburg, June 8, 1855, the
youngest son of seven children of Peter and Cecelia Giey. He had lived in and
about Louisville for the greater part of his life. In 1876 he was united in
marriage to Mrs. Nan Hamlin of Shelbyville, Tennessee, later coming to
Louisville, where their family was reared. 
     He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Nan Giey; three daughters, Mrs. Lillian
Kerstetter, Mrs. Earl Geis and Mrs. John Menegay, all of Louisville; two sons,
W. Clarence of Louisville and Horace of Canton; two step-sons, Henry of
Louisville, and Louis Hamlin  of Canton. Eleven grandchildren also survive. 
     Private funeral services will be held in the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Kerstetter, at 734 East Broad Street, in charge of Rev. F.W. Hoffman, Friday
afternoon at 2;30. Interment will be made in Union Cemetery.  Friends may call
at the home Thursday evening.
