Anna Klindt
Death of Mrs. Klindt.
Everyone was shocked on Wednesday morning August 10, 1904, to hear of the sudden
death of
Mrs. Hans Klindt just south of town, who died very suddenly with inflammation of the bowels, only being sick a very few days.
Anna (Jensen) Klindt was born October 1, 1862, in Germany, and came with her parents to America in 1873 and settled first in Ohio, she came to Clinton County, in 1878, then to Crawford County and then to Manning. She was married to Hans Klindt October 20, 1881, near Maquoketa, Iowa. She leaves a husband and four children Harry, Anna, Elsie, and Emma, also three brothers John at Ponca, Nebraska; Anton, near Manning; and Edward near Maquoketa to mourn her loss.
Mrs. Klindt was a good, kind woman and loved by all who knew her. The funeral will be held at the home next Saturday morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. William Martens officiating, after which the remains will be laid to rest in the Manning cemetery. The entire community is in deep sympathy with the deceased's relatives in their hour of sorrow.
