DEATH OF CHARLES PRIBBANOW

Charles PRIBBANOW, one of the old settlers of this section, died in this city on Sunday evening at the age of 82 years, death being due to old age and paralysis.

Deceased was born on the 30th of June, 1828, at Meesow, Germany and was married in 1852 to Minnie BERG, who is still living in this city, the couple having spent 58 years of their life together. They had born to them twelve children, only four of whom are living, they being Herman and William PRIBBANOW and Mrs. Emma ERDMANN of this city, and Otto PRIBBANOW of Nekoosa. There are eleven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Mr. PRIBBANOW came to America in 1866 and settled near Kellner, which at that time was a wilderness, and lived there until about a year ago, when he moved to this city, where he has since made his home.

The funeral took place on Tuesday from the west side Lutheran church, Rev. Wm. Nommensen conducting the services, the remains being interred in Forest Hill cemetery.
