Mr. Roggish, who was a painter and paper hanger, had lived in Manning continuously since 1910.
Born December 29, 1869, in Holstein, Germany, he came to the United States in 1882 with his parents, who lived in Kenosha County, Wisconsin, before moving to Long Pine, Nebraska, where they bought a farm and made their home.
In 1891, Mr. Roggish came from Nebraska to Atlantic, and in 1907 to Manning, where he purchased a home.
Moving to Sioux City in 1908, he worked as an engineer in a laundry there for two years, at the end of which period of time, he returned to Manning where he has resided ever since.
He was married at Atlantic in 1902 to Katrina Miller, who, with two daughters, Elaine Roggish of Manning and Mrs. Lester Mendenhall (Mamie), of Dunlap, survives. He also leaves one brother, Rudolph, of Ainsworth, Nebraska, and two sisters, Elizabeth and Delia, at Long Pine, Nebraska.
Mr. Roggish attended the Methodist Church. Fraternally, he
belonged to the Odd Fellow Lodge and the Woodmen of the World.
