MARY MEYER From Der Nord Westen, 31 Jan. 1901:

Death claimed the life Tues. morning of Mrs. Marie Meyer, spouse of our well known fellow citizen Gerhard Meyer. The deceased was born in the Province of Hanover 31 July 1818 and came to America in 1847 with her parents Mr. and Mrs. Brackmann. The family settled in Sheboygan and it was there that she met Gerhard Meyer whom she married in 1848 and they moved to Manitowoc where they have lived ever since. 3 children were born to the couple of whom a daughter died as a child while the 2 sons survive - Henry Meyer here and Geo. Meyer in Grand Rapids, Mich. Both Mr. and Mrs. Meyer were ill with the grippe and it is hoped that he will overcome the illness. Mrs. Meyer's funeral will take place this afternoon in the city cemetery. ******** [cause: Grippe-old age]
