Lottig, Conrad G.

"Conrad G. Lottig" A German by birth, and remaining in the Fatherland until he 
was 13 years of age, was one who, following an industrious and successful career 
ceased from his labors on April 22. Deceased was 60 years, 8 months and 13 days. 
He was employed as a section man on the railroad and by frugality and thrift 
managed to buy a farm and later to fit it in good modern form. He lived in this 
county since 1877. In 1879 he was united in marriage to Elizabeth Mazer who 
survives him as do the following children: Mrs. Herman Hersh, Louisa, John, 
Herman, Addison and Iva. Mrs. Mary Schadt, of Cumberland, is a sister. The 
funeral services were held at the White Oak Reformed Church, Rev. Hostetler and 
Rev. Kresge officiating. It was one of the largest funerals held in that 
locality for years. Mr. Lottig died in the faith that death does not end all and 
that he knew in whom he had believed.
