Surname:  KOELZER, ZUERN

In the house of his daughter, Mrs. John Zuern in Hartford, John Koelzer
died on Saturday of last week after a short illness.  He had lived for
the past 20 years in Hartford and was generally well-liked.  He was
born on the 4th of February 1833 in Buch in the Rhine province and came
to America, settling in Milwaukee, and 20 years ago moved to Hartford.
He was married to his wife, who died in 1890, in 1855 and the union
produced 10 children, of whom only 3 are still alive.  The funeral was
Tuesday from St. Kilian's Catholic Church in Hartford under the
direction of Father Bertram.
