• Notes

  From the Burlington Standard Auguste Alvertine Schmidt, nee Wald, was born on Aug. 30, 1831, at Fredersdorf, near Berlin, Germany. It was there where she also spent the days of her youth. In the year 1855 she came to America with her parents, at first to Burlington. On Sept. 5, 1858, she was united in marriage to William Schmidt, who died on May 29, 10-4. Shortly after their marriage the young couple moved to Missouri, but on account of the war they returned to Wisconsin in the early 60s. Since that time the deceased has continually lived in Wilmot, where she was respected and esteemed by all who knew her. An upright and sincere christian, she was always willing to lend a helping hand in time of need. Above all did she love the kingdom of God, the church, in particular our Lutheran congregation at Wilmot, with which she has been affiliated ever since the same was founded in 1866. During the last years of her life the deceased was much troubled with rheumatism. This, together with other ailments of old age, was also the cause of her death. During the last four weeks she was seriously ill with rheumatism, at times suffering intensely. Patiently she waited and prayed for the end to come, when she would be delivered from all evil of this vale of tears and be with her saviour evermore. She peacefully passed away last Saturday evening at 9:40. She leaves to mourn her death one son, one daughter, one son-in-law, and other relatives. Her age was 83 years, 11 months and 14 days. Thefuneral took place Tuesday afternoon; Rev.S. A. Jedele conducting the services.
