JOHN SCHAVE (d. 1906) MISSING A WEEK, BODY IN RIVER John Schavett, South Side Man, 58, Meets Death at Tenth St. Bridge Missing since last Wednesday, one week, John Schavett, an aged Southside resident, met death in the river, the dead body being recovered near Tenth Street bridge this morning by workmen employed on the bridge. They body was recovered when the workmen used a pike pole to secure piling that had floated away, the pole encountering the body and pulling it to the surface where it was taken ashore. From appearance, the body had been in the water for several days and it is believed that Schavett met his death by an accident through not knowing that the bride was being repaired and was not in use. Schavett made his home with his daughter, Mrs. Gus Aumann and a week ago Sunday had started for Four Corners and left there on Wednesday to return to the city. It is presumed that he had reached the city and was on his way to the home of his daughter, probably at night and had intended to cross Tenth St. bridge and the bridge being out of use, he walked into the river. Schavett was 58 years of age and had made this city his home the greater part of his life. He married Mrs. Kaufmann, a widow and four of five children born to the couple survive, being Mrs. Gus Aumann, Mrs. Susan Pollock, this city, Mrs. Kate Springhugh and Henry Schavett, Milwaukee. Five children of his wife by a former marriage also survive. The body was taken tot he Kappes undertaking rooms and it was decided that an inquest was unnecessary, there being no marks of violence on the body and nothing about the case to arouse suspicion that death was due to other than accident. Manitowoc Daily Herald - Wed., July 18, 1906 ******** STATE NEWS The corpse of John Schave, a Manitowoc man who disappeared a week ago has been taken from the river. The case is evidently one of suicide. Schave was fifty years of age. Oshkosh Daily Northwestern -Thurs., July 19, 1906 - page 4 ******** Yesterday morning while Pat. Roy and Stephan Dworik, who are employed by contractor Pitz, were busy repairing the Main Street bridge they saw the body of a man floating in the river near the pilings. The body was pulled out and identified as that of John Schavert, a resident of our city. Witnesses interviewed by the police said that Schavert had set out on Sunday, 08 July, for Four Corners to visit relatives. About Wednesday he left there to return to Manitowoc. His daughter, Mrs. Gus. Aumann, with whom Schavert lives, didn't know that her father had begun his return trip, so she didn't miss him and thought he was still at Four Corners. It appears that Schavert had arrived at the Main Street bridge late in the evening and was unaware that it was standing open during repair. Even though the approach to the bridge was closed, it is possible he assumed that it was only closed to vehicles and he tried to cross the bridge, fell into the river and drowned. In any event, the body showed no marks of violence, and the conclusion that he drowned is correct. Schavert was 58 years old and had lived in our city for many years. He leaves 4 children as well as 5 stepchildren.

His father, Alvin Schmelzle came to this country from Germany and settled on the farm during the first half of the last century. Frank Schmelzle was born July 30, 1855.

Frank Schmelzle was a man of generous impulses and never forgot the hospitable ways of the early settlers. He had borne adversity bravely and enjoyed prosperity quietly. He had filled the various relations of life as son, husband, father, brother and friend and filled them well. He was a man of excellent habits, fine moral character and sturdy constitution. He was a practical matter-of-fact man. Mr. Schmelzle was a member of St. Boniface church all his life until St. Andrew congregation was carved out of the parish.

It must be son, these tender human ties cannot be severed without a pang. Yet, in such a death there is no cause for grief. His life work was done and well done.

NORMAN G. SCHMIDT County’s traffic death toll totals nine after crash MANITOWOC – Manitowoc County lost a solid citizen when Norman Schmidt, of Manitowoc, died of massive head injuries yesterday after his motorcycle collided with an automobile in the Town of Newton. The traffic fatality brings the county’s 1986 total to nine. Schmidt was pronounced dead at 12:15 p.m. at St. Vincent Hospital in Green Bay. He was taken to Holy Family Medical Center in Manitowoc after the accident, which occurred at 8:30 a.m., to stabilize his vital signs. He was taken to St. Vincent because of the hospital’s head injury trauma center, Manitowoc County Coroner Marion Cumming explained. Apparently, Schmidt failed to yield the right-of-way when he was turning from English Lake Rd. to Highway 42, Ms. Cumming said. Schmidt was wearing a helmet. Alcohol does not appear to be factor in this case, she added. Schmidt retired from the Manitowoc Police Department about one year ago. He served as parking meter attendant for many years, Ms. Cumming said. “He was a very well-liked person in the community,” she added. Ms. Cumming said no charges are expected to be filed. The Sheriffs Department is expected to release further information today. Herald Times Reporter, Manitowoc, Wisconsin, Sunday, August 17, 1986 ********* Norman G.
