FRANK E. MARGROFF

  COVE, Md., June 14 - This community was greatly shocked by the sudden death of 
Frank Margroff, who was taken ill on Sunday morning, June 5, at his home, and 
was rushed to the Memorial Hospital, Cumberland, Sunday evening, at which place 
he died on Tuesday evening following, at 6 o'clock.  He was born here 52 years 
ago, and was a son of the late Edward and Sarah Daniels Margroff.  He was united 
in marriage 31 years ago to Miss Matilda Zahner, who survives him.  He is 
survived also by the following children:  Lawrence and Helen of Akron, O.; 
Clara, Walter and Carl, at home.
  The youngest son, Carl, was 15 years old the day his father was called to his 
eternal rest.  Deceased is also survived by two brothers, Harry of this place, 
and Henry, of Akron, Ohio, and by four sisters, Ida of Wisconsin, Elizabeth, 
Emma and Nora of Akron, Ohio, and by one grandchild.
  Mr. Margroff was a member of the German Lutheran Church, and the funeral 
service was held at the church where he worshipped, on Friday morning, the 10th 
inst., and was largely attended.  The floral tributes were many, and very 
beautiful.  Mr. Margroff will be greatly missed in this community, where he 
leaves many friends.
