The deceased was a sister to the late Jacob Feirer and was well know (sic) in this city and universally respected by a large circle of acquaintances. She was 63 years of age at the time of her death." Additional Comments: Theresa (Tracy) Feirer, b.March 1937 Germany (based on 1900 census - 1936 on death certificate), bu.November 10, 1901 Eau Claire, WI (probably Sacred Heart Cemetery) PARENTS: John and Barbara Feirer, Germany. Other children (siblings to Theresa): Jacob Feirer, b.July 25, 1845 Bohemia, d.January 25, 1899 Eau Claire, WI, bu.January 28, 1899 Sacred Heart Cemetery, Eau Claire, WI; Mary Feirer Grill, b.August 1847 Germany. BACKGROUND: Two Feirer sisters born in Germany are listed in the 1900 Federal Census for Eau Claire. Venal Grill (note: different census transcribers show "Krell" and "Kriell" and, based on poor written record, first name may be wrong as well) and his wife Mary are housing Mary's sister, Tracy Feirer (b.Mar 1837, immigrated 1891) at the same address in Theresa's obit. The census indicates that Tracy was an invalid consistent with Theresa's obit.
