Obituary: Rock County, Wisconsin: Charles S. WILDER ************************************************************************ Submitted by Ruth Ann Montgomery, June 2005 © All rights reserved. http://www.usgwarchives.net/copyright.htm ************************************************************************ Charles S. Wilder died at his home in Wilton, Wis., Aug. 23, 1921. He is survived by his wife, one daughter, Mrs. R. H. Seevall of Milwaukee and a sister, Mrs. W. J. Clark of this city. Mr. Wilder was well known to many in Evansville, having spent his boyhood days in this community and later was one of the first employees in the Baker Mfg. Company plant. The Wilton Herald says of him: Mr. Wilder had always taken an active prominent part in civic affairs, was a member of many years of the local Masonic fraternity, proprietor of the local movie house, and up to the time of his death was Justice of the Peace, and Clerk of the local Camp of the Modern Woodmen of America. Funeral services, under the auspices of the local Masonic fraternity, were held from the home Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, the impressive service of that Order being rendered, after which the remains were taken to Ontario for burial. The bereaved ones have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire community in their great loss. And "Charlie," as he was familiarly known, will be sadly missed by his many friends.
