RUDOLPH HRABIK

WIFE WITNESSES FATAL ACCIDENT TO HUSBAND IN LAKE
RUDOLPH LOSES LIFE WHILE BATHING IN LAKE NEAR LONE PINE SUNDAY WHILE
WIFE AND DAUGHTER ARE ON SHORE
BODY CARRIED TWO MILES FOUND ON BEACH TODAY
One of the saddest tragedies of the year was enacted Sunday afternoon
at Lone Pine, a picnic resort on the lake bech on the interurban line
to Two Rivers, when Rudy Hrabek(sic), a well known young business man
of this city, met his death while bathing in the lake. Mr. Hrabek's
death resulted from a blow on the head from a hatch cover which he was
using as a raft, or from heart failure, investigation today, when the
body was recovered revealing that death was not due to drowning. A
wound on the temple, where the unfortunate man may have been struck by
the heavy board may have caused death or heart failure may have been
responsible.
The accident happened at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon and the body
was not recovered until 6:30 this morning when it was found on the
beach near Two Rivers, nearly two miles from the scene of the tragedy,
having been carried that distance by the undercurrent which made it
impossible to recover the remains after the accident. The body was
found by Engineer Schultz of the Two Rivers plant of the Wisconsin
Canning Co. who had it conveyed to an undertaking establishment there
and later W.C. Urbanek, a brother-in-law of the dead man brought the
remains here.
Mrs. Hrabek, her sisters, Mrs. Otto Alter and Mrs. W.C. Urbanek, and
Mr. Alter witnessed the tragedy from the shore where they were
awaiting the return of Mr. Hrabek who is believed to have started to
swim ashore upon a signal from the party. Arthur Baetz and family of
Two Rivers were also at the beach and witnessed the accident.
The Hrabek family, father, mother and son, accompanied by children of
Mr. and Mrs. W.C. Urbanek had been at the beach since noon but Mr.
and Mrs. Alter and Mrs. Urbanek arrived but five minutes before the
tragedy. As the party, which was met at the car by Mrs. Hrabek,
proceeded to the beach Mr. Hrabek was seen in the water, his hands 
high in the air and apparently sinking and suddenly the body disappeared
from view. Mr. Alter and Mr. Baetz, with others who were on the car
rushed to the water and a human chain was formed in an effort to reach
Mr. Hrabek but the undertow was so strong that it was impossible to
proceed but a short distance. The unfortunate man is said to have
been 300 feet or more from the shore when he went down.
A telephone call was dispatched to Two Rives for the Life Saving Crew
and the crew with Capt. George Sogge assisted in search for the body.
A large net was used in dragging the lake but the rough sea snd the
undertow made it impossible to reach bottom and volunteer divers who 
tried to aid were forced to return to shore. The search was continued 
until midnight and Frank Hrabek, a brother of the dead man, and Frank 
Wattawa, Grover Meyer and A.W. Tompkins patrolled the beach all night 
to recover the body in event that it was thrown up by the waters, but 
no trace of the remains were found until 6:30 this morning when Mr. 
Schultz at Two Rivers, discovered the body on the beach near the plant 
of the canning company, a mile and one-half from the spot where the 
accident happened. Word was sent to this city and the body was brought 
here by a special car of the Traction line. News of the accident cast 
a pall over the city and dozens of people visited the beach and 
volunteered their services in an effort to recover the body. Thomas 
Higgins, president of the Traction Co. and Supt. Phair, of the company, 
who reached the scene early joined the searchers and cars were held 
at the Pine to convey the body to the city should it be found.
Dead Man Well Known-
Rudy Hrabek was one of the best known young business men of the city
and was associated in the Manitowoc Electrical Works founded a few
months ago. He was born at Kewaunee Sept. 17, 1886, being 28 years
of age at the time of his untimely death. At the age of 10 he came
here with his parents and had since made his home in the city.
Mr. Hrabek was married three years ago to Miss Lydia Pruss, who with
one daughter, survive. His parents, residents of Huron street, this
city, three brothers, Frank, Michael George and two sisters, Mrs.
John Kott(?) and Miss Bessie Hrabek, also survive.
News of the death of Mr. Hrabek was a terrible shock to the commun-
ity and to a host of friends. He was popular with all who knew him
and was a young man possessed of capabilities that promised him
success in life.
Funeral on Wednesday-
Funeral services for Mr. Hrabek will be held Wednesday afternoon
and will be under the auspices of the Royal League of which decedent
was a member. The funeral will be from the late home.

Valley cities, Milwaukee and Chicago.
Announcement of the marriage which was solemnized at the Lutheran parsonage by

guarded their plans effectively. Frank Hrabik and Miss Carrie Sniffen were the 
only attendants of the couple who departed on the trip immediately after the 
ceremony. Both Mr. and Mrs. Hrabik are well known and popular with many friends.

ANN HUBBARD    (d. 1938)

MRS. HUBBARD, PIONEER CITY TEACHER DIES
Succumbs at Los Angeles at Age of 99; Taught Here During Civil War Days
Mrs. Harvey Hubbard, 99, who was a teacher in the first high school here in 
Civil War days, died early today at her home in Los Angeles, Calif. She moved 
to the west to live with her daughters and son 14 years ago.
Keen Interest In City
Mrs. Hubbard, nee Anna Warbasse, was closely connected with the intellectual, 
religious and civic development of Manitowoc in the early village days. She 
was a member of one of the pioneer families during her residence here following 
her marriage to Mr. Hubbard, who also was active in church and social work.
Despite her age Mrs. Hubbard retained her faculties to the end. She had a keen 
interest in Manitowoc affairs and has retained church and society memberships 
here ever since she located in California.
Chapel funeral services will be held in Los Angeles Thursday at 3 p.m. The 
body will be brought to Manitowoc in May for burial in the Hubbard lot in 
Evergreen cemetery.
Born in New Jersey in 1839 Mrs. Hubbard was educated in private schools of that 
state and came to Wisconsin 1861 to visit her sister, Mary, Mrs. C.W. Fitch. Mr. 
Fitch was editor of a weekly paper here. She was offered the position of teacher 
under O.R. Bacon in the high school on the north side. She taught geometry, 
algebra, and arithmetic, including mental arithmetic, and was very proud of the 
latter class.
She began immediately to take part in social and church activiites of the 
community. When she returned from the east after a visit home she taught in 
Racine. While there she received an offer of the principalship of the Manitowoc 
school, on the retirement of Mr. Bacon. She was in charge of the school at the 
time of the assassination of President Lincoln and told the story of how the 
entire student body marched in a parade in honor of the martyred president on 
the day of his funeral.
Many Manitowoc young men who left high school to join the Union army were her 
students after they returned from the war. Although they were 20 or 21 years 
of age they completed the high school courses.
After resigning as school principal she returned east to be married. She 
returned here as the bride of Harvey Hubbard, member of one of the first 
families of Manitowoc. Mr. Hubbard came here when he was an infant with his 
father, Oliver Hubbard, one of the first band of Manitowoc settlers with 
Benjamin Jones over 100 years ago. The Hubbard family was one of three families 
who remained when the panic of 1837 sent the rest of the 40 settlers rushing 
back to Chicago.
Lived on Farm
For many years Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard lived on the Hubbard farm west of Manitowoc 
Rapids. When they moved to this city they built a home on North Ninth street, 
now occupied by the Wallace family. Mr. Hubbard was connected with the Hubbard 
and Noble Lumber mill and the Manitowoc Seating company. He was a horticulturist 
and active in many civic movements.
Mrs. Hubbard was prominent in Presbyterian church circles. She joined the 
church here by letter from Newton, N.Y., in 1866. She retained membership in 
the church until her death, and practiced its tenats every day of her life. 
She was a charter member of the Ladies Aid society and the Missionary society.
Mr. Hubbard died about 20 years ago.
Survivors are two daughters, Edith and Alice, both of Los Angeles, and two 
sons, Dr. Walton Hubbard, Los Angeles and Edward Hubbard, Chicago.

Oldest Living Manitowoc Teacher
MRS. HARVEY HUBBARD, now of Los Angeles, Calif., was a teacher in Manitowoc's 
first high school back in the Civil War days and is the oldest living Manitowoc 
teacher.
Mrs. Hubbard, who celebrated her 97th birthday in February, is almost as old as 
the community itself. She is remembered in her teaching days, when she was Miss 
Annie Warbasse, by Capt. T.J. Kelley, who was one of her pupils.
Perhaps no other living resident or former resident of Manitowoc has been more 
closely connected with the development of Manitowoc during its early days than 
was Mrs. Hubbard.
From the days of the Civil War, when she taught in Manitowoc's first high school, 
into the beginning of the 1900's Mrs. Hubbard not only took an active part in 
life of the community but was the member of one of Manitowoc's oldest and most 
active families.
Born in New Jersey on February 25, 1839, Mrs. Hubbard, then Miss Warbasse, came 
to Manitowoc in 1861 to visit her sister Mary, Mrs. C.W. Fitch. Mr. Fitch was 
editor of the paper and lived in the house later known as the Conway home and at 
that time as the Madson home. Miss Warbasse was offered a position under P.R. Bacon, 
principal of the north side school-on the site of the present Madison school. She 
accepted and taught there for several years. Her subjects were geometry, algebra 
and mental arithmetic and she was very proud of the ability of the latter class.
After a few years she returned to her home in the east for a visit and, upon her 
return to Wisconsin, she taught in Racine. Upon the resignation of Mr. Bacon Miss 
Warbasse was offered the principalship of the north side school here. She was 
principal at the time of the assassination of President Lincoln and tells the story 
of how the entire student body marched in a parade in honor of the martyred president 
on the day of his funeral.
Among her students were the Smith boys-Lonnie, Hiram and Ira-John Plumb, Dan Mallett, 
Capt. Tim Kelley, Carrie Goodnow, Emma Guyles, Mary Holmes, Emma and Mary Carpenter 
and Fannie Mallett.
After serving as principal for two years she returned to her home to be married to 
Harvey Hubbard. Mr. Hubbard came here when he was an infant with his father, Oliver C. 
Hubbard, member of the first band of settlers who came here with Benjamin Jones on the 
schooner Elwellyn just 100 years ago. The Hubbard family was one of three families who 
remained here when the panic of 1837 sent the rest of the 40 settlers rushing back to 
Chicago.
For many years Mr. and Mrs. Hubbard lived on the old Hubbard farm, just below the 
Bedell farm at Rapids. When they moved to Manitowoc they built the house now occupied 
by W.L. Wallace on North Ninth street. Mr. Hubbard was connected with the Hubbard and 
Noble lumber mill and the Manitowoc Seating company. He was a horticulturist and was 
active in many community businesses and civic movements. Mrs. Hubbard was very active 
in the affairs of the First Presbyterian church here, which she joined by letter from 
Newton, N.Y., on July 8, 1866. She is still a member of the church here. She was a 
charter member of the Ladies' Aid society and the Missionary society. Mrs. Hubbard 
still holds her membership in both organizations.
Mrs. Hubbard had four children, all of whom are living. Edward Hubbard, a son, lives 
in Chicago, and Alice, Edith and Walton, her other three children, live in Los Angeles. 
She also has two grandchildren and one great grandchild.
Although Mrs. Hubbard is entering her 98th year she is still active and her mental 
faculties have remained as keen as ever.
Mrs. Hubbard still tells of the Indians who lived here in the early days. They used 
to troop into her home at Rapids and when her husband was away she felt she had to 
give them everything at which they pointed. One of the Indian leaders met Mr. Hubbard, 
who was a good friend of his, one day and told him that the pale face squaw was afraid 
of his people. The Indians were greatly amused at her fears.

CHARLES R. HUBBARD    (d. 1923)

SUDDEN DEATH OVERTAKES CHAS. HUBBARD Sunday
Stricken While He Makes Daily Trip To Farm
Charles Rollin Hubbard, life long resident of Manitowoc and a grandson 
of the late Oliver Hubbard, one of the first settlers of the county, 
died suddenly Sunday, death coming to him within a short distance of 
the spot where he was born 66 years ago. Mr. Hubbard, who for years 
has resident on North Sixth street, this city, was stricken while alone 
on his farm in the town of Rapids, having visited the farm as was his 
daily custon, to feed his horses. Death was due to apoplexy and occurred 
while Mr. Hubbard had stepped from the barn to gather some wood, two 
pieces of wood being found in his hands when the body was discovered 
some time after death had occurred.
News of the death of Mr. Hubbard was a great shock to the family and 
friends as he had been in apparent health when he left home Sunday 
morning. It had been his practice for a long time to walk to the farm, 
just outside the city, and spend part of the day there. Neighbors who 
visited the farm later found the body of Mr. Hubbard and immediately 
summoned physicians and notified the family. The body was brought to 
the city last evening and the funeral will be held from the family home 
on N. Sixth street Wednesday morning at 10, the Rev. E.P. Keicher 
officiating. Burial will be at Evergreen.
Wife Died In December.
Mrs. Hubbard died December 9, last year, a victim of a stroke which she 
suffered a short time previously. Her death was a great shock to Mr. 
Hubbard and he had never recovered from it.
Mr. Hubbard was born in the town of Rapids on December 2, 1856 and had 
always made his home here. He was a charter member of the local lodge of 
Modern Woodmen and active in the Order in its early days. He was well and 
favorably known to a large circle of friends to whom his death comes as a 
personal loss.
Two sons, Francis A. and Charles and one daughter Miss Cora, this city and 
a daughter Mrs. Albert Weiland, of Peru, Ill., survive. One sister Mrs. 
F.A. Eastwood resides at Escanaba and is here for the funeral.

HARVEY F. HUBBARD

BUT ONE IS LEFT.
H.F. Hubbard Located in the City Sixty-Two Years Ago.
Sixty-two years ago yesterday, on the afternoon of April 16, 1838, 
the first white colonists landed at what is now Manitowoc. Men, 
women and children included, numbered thirty-two and the small body 
of people worked and endured hardships to build the nucleus of a 
city. How well they succeeded is evidenced by our present thriving, 
beautiful city of to-day. Of these thirty-two persons but one is 
living to-day, that one is H.F. Hubbard who was only seven years of 
age when his parents came to this place to help build a city.
These early colonists were not the first settlers. In the fall of 
1836 a family named Edwards came from Chicago and settled at the 
Rapids. One member of this family, Joseph Edwards, a man well-known 
to most people in Manitowoc, still lives. He was only five years of 
age at that time, but his recollections of the early days are still 
vivid. The site of Manitowoc was owned by a Chicago company. In 1836 
they sent three men here to break ground. They built a small house 
and returned to Chicago before winter. The next Spring the company 
hired more men who took their families, all necessary supplies and 
started in a sailing vessel for their new home, where they were 
expected to start a city. The house which had been built the year 
before stood on what is now the North-east corner of Eight and 
Commercial streets. The first house to be built by the new corner 
was located on the hill were the Hall Bros. warehouse stood later. 
This house has been rebuilt and is still standing in another part 
of the city
In July of the next year others others came to Manitowoc among them 
Perry P. Smith. Mr. Smith lives to-day at the corner of Chicago and 
Sixth streets. Although well advanced in years he is still able to 
look after his affairs and comes down town every pleasant day. He 
has watched the growth of the town year by year from a small hamlet 
to a city of nearly twelve thousand inhabitants. It is a pleasure to 
him to go back over the early days and his stories of pioneer life 
are very interesting.
These three men, Joseph Edwards, H.F. Hubbard and Perry P. Smith are 
the only three men of the early pioneers still living. Mr. Hubbard 
being the only one of the original thirty-two colonists left. To him 
the sixteenth of April is a day to be commemorated. Indeed it is a 
day that deserves to be observed in some fitting manner by all the 
citizens of Manitowoc.

H.F. HUBBARD, RESIDENT OF CO. FOR 78 YEARS, 
AND OLDEST PIONEER SETTLER, DIES TODAY
CAME TO CITY AS BOY OF 7 IN 1837 AND FOUNDED CHURCH AND 
SCHOOL FURNITURE MANUFACTURER BUSINESS, NOW IMPORTANT 
INDUSTRY OF CITY-WAS FIRST STUDENT AT UNIVERSITY
PROMINENT AS ODD FELLOW AND WAS FOR 40 YEARS CHURCH ELDER
"When the day is done, when the work of life is finished, when the gold 
of evening meets the dark of night, beneath the silent stars the laborer 
should fall asleep."
This favorite quotation of Harvey F. Hubbard, the oldest living pioneer 
settler of Manitowoc county, was truly exemplified in his death which 
occurred early this morning at the family home, North Ninth street, when 
worn and wearied by a pilgrimage of 85 years, he quietly fell into eternal 
sleep, the end, calm and peaceful being a beautiful climax to a life that 
had been marked by unusual activity. 
Resident Here 78 Years. 
For seventy eight years, Mr. Hubbard had been identified with the life and 
development of Manitowoc county and his passing takes the last of the first 
settlers of the county, a little band which located here in 1836-37 and 
founded what is now the city. While Mr. Hubbard was not with the first party 
which settled here in 1836, with his father he came here a year later and 
since that time practically his entire life had been passed in Manitowoc and 
his efforts given to the upbuilding of a city from a wilderness. 
Native of New York. 
Mr. Hubbard was born in Cattaraugus County, New York, July 14, 1830 and was 
but seven years of age when his father came west, locating here to take up 
land. The boy was sent to Illinois where he could attend school and later 
was one of the first students enrolled at the University of Wisconsin when 
that institution was founded, being a student there the first two years the 
University was opened. The death of his father prevented Mr. Hubbard from 
graduating from the University, and he returned here to take charge of the 
business which was the manufacture of lumber and late. Mr. Hubbard, Sr., 
having operated what was known as Hubbard's mill at Rapids.  In 1866 Mr. 
Hubbard was married to Anna Halsted Warbasse and the family took up their 
home in this city, though the business of which he was the head was trans-
ferred to Reedsville because of better facilities for securing oak lumber 
used in the factory. 
Founded Church Furniture Business. 
Later the plant was established in this city and enlarged under the name of 
the Manitowoc Manufacturing co. and it was the beginning of the church and 
school manufacturing industry which in later years came to be an important 
industry of the city. In 1891 the factory plant of the company was destroyed 
by fire and Mr. Hubbard engaged in the insurance and real estate business 
which he continued to be actively engaged in up to three years ago when 
advanced age forced his retirement, though up to a few weeks of his death 
he made daily visits down town. 
Forty Years an Elder. 
Mr. Hubbard was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church and for forty 
years had held the title of ruling elder of the church in this city, a 
distinction that is unequalled in church history of the city. He lived up to 
the beliefs that his affiliation and his gentle, kindly nature was manifested 
in his helpfulness to others and his charity. "Write me as one who loves his 
fellow man" was one of Mr. Hubbard's favorite quotations and he lived up to 
it in his daily life. 
Pioneer Odd Fellow. 
A charter member of Chickerming lodge, Independent Order of Odd Fellows when 
the lodge was organized in 1855, Mr. Hubbard had been prominent in the order 
in the city and state. He served as Grand Master of the state supreme lodge 
and was also named grand representative from Wisconsin to the grand lodge 
of the United States. To Mr. Hubbard as much as any other men was due the 
founding of the Odd Fellows Home at Green Bay, this state, he having been 
largely instrumental in establishment of the institution. He was active in 
other charitable work of the order and was one of the men whose interest and 
enthusiasm had held intact the organization of Chickerming lodge. 
Founded Co. Society. 
Mr. Hubbard was a great lover of Nature, of trees, flowers, birds and insects 
and was an enthusiastic horticulturist and it was through his efforts that the 
Manitowoc County Horticulture society was organized some years ago and he was 
elected as the first president of the society. Even in late years Mr. Hubbard 
had manifested great interest in the society, being a regular attendant at its 
meetings and one of its exhibitors as long as he was able to give attention to 
the organization. 
Knew Co. History. 
Possessed of a retentive memory and a great reader, Mr. Hubbard was one of the 
best posted men of the city on current affairs, interest in which he maintained 
up to the time of his death. He was an encyclopedia of knowledge on county 
history and was called upon many times by persons seeking facts and dates 
pertaining to the early days of the county. Mr. Hubbard assisted materially in 
the compilation of recent published histories of Manitowoc county. 
Took Interest in Public Affairs. 
During his long residence here, Mr. Hubbard had always manifested a keen interest 
in public affairs, though he had never sought public office. He was a staunch 
supporter of the public schools and few educational meetings that were not 
attended by him. 
Surviving Family. 
Mr. Hubbard is survived by a widow and two sons, E.D. Hubbard, of Chicago and 
Dr. H. Walton Hubbard of Spokane, Wash., and two daughters, Misses Alice E. and 
Edith M. Hubbard, both of this city. Both of Mr. Hubbard's sons will be here 
for the funeral. Funeral services for the late Mr. Hubbard will be held Saturday 
afternoon from the home at 2 o'clock.

DEATH'S SUMMONS IS SERVED
Mrs. Amanda Hubbard Ends Long and Useful Life of 77 Years
Death's solemn summons has again been served and one more Manitowoc 
resident has taken passage on that sea which never shadows a returning 
sail, Mrs. Amanda Hubbard, widow of the late Giles Hubbard, having 
passed away at an early hour today at the home of Rollin Hubbard on 
North Water Street. The demise of Mrs. Hubbard was due to pneumonia 
from which she had suffered but a short time, her infirm system being 
unable to withstand the attack. With the death of Mrs. Hubbard, another 
of the pioneer settlers of the county has been gathered to rest with 
the fast increasing number gone before. 
Decedent was a native of New York state, 77 years of age and was with 
the first families who came here and was married in the village fifty 
years ago last February. Her husband died twelve years ago, since which 
time she has made her home with her son, who with one daughter, Mrs. 
Fred Eastwind, of Escanaba, Mich., survives her. Mrs. Hubbard was a 
goodly woman and in the several relations of  life-as wife, mother, 
neighbor and friend, she was exemplary and proved herself worthy of the 
confidence constantly reposed. Her chief delight was in the love of her 
children and her nature was helpful. Lavish affection was bestowed upon 
those near and dear to her and it brought a generous return of enjoyment 
and gave to her in the declining days of life a happiness that even death 
could not shadow. Many friends will sincerely mourn the demise of Mrs. 
Hubbard.

From the Manitowoc Herald, 15 Dec 1855:
Oliver C. Hubbard died.
*******
At Manitowoc Rapids, on the 10th inst., Mr. O.C. Hubbard, aged 56 years.
Mr. Hubbard was one of the earliest settlers of Manitowoc County, and 
has during his residence here, witnessed changes of no common kind.
As one of the pioneers of this country, he has seen the abode of the 
wolf, panther, and wild savage, transformed into the home of enlightened 
civilization, and he had the proud satisfaction of knowing that the labor 
of his hands, and the influence of his counsels contributed to swell the 
prosperity which everywhere surrounded him.
Those who knew him, will recall with grateful recollections, many evidences 
of the true and warm-hearted kindness which was his distinguished 
characteristic. A kind husband, a loving and indulgent parent, a good 
citizen and a sincere Christian, whose virtues shone through the practice 
of his every day life, he will be missed, not only in the home circle, but 
by all who have ever felt the warm grasp of the hand which was ever the 
true index of his noble heart.
The funeral on Wednesday morning, was attended by a large concourse of 
citizens, and an able address from an appropriate text was deliverd by 
Rev. M. Hoyt, rector of St. James Church.

RONALD S. HUBBARTT

Head Injuries Kill Manitowoc Cyclist 
MANITOWOC….Dead are:
…Ronald S. Hubbartt, 29, of Rt. 4, Manitowoc, Hubbartt was killed instantly at 
5:25 p.m. Sunday when his 1963 motorcycle went out of control as he came south 
across the 21st Street bridge, failed to make the turn and struck the metal 
guard rail. Coroner Dr. Theodore Teitgen said that severe head and neck injuries 
caused death instantaneously as the cyclist's hurtling body went head first into 
a 4 by 4 inch guard rail. The sharp top corner of the post pierced the head 
between the eyes. 
Second in City…
According to witnesses, Hubartt was riding with three other cyclists…., each on 
separate cycles. They had come down the viaduct and headed across the bridge. 
Just as Hubbart's cycle came onto the south apron of the bridge, the other riders 
said they noticed the front wheel began to shimmy. The cycle failed to make the 
turn and the front wheel struck the curbing at an angle, flipping the cycle into 
the air and overturning it.
A rubber handlegrip was dug into the lawn and there were wheel marks along the 
upper edge of the metal guard rail. The front wheel flew off and landed across 
the street and the rest of the cycle spun "like a flipped coin through the air," 
according to a witness. It landed in an upright position on the railroad tracks 
in front of Wisconsin Malting Co. elevators 130 feet from where the body was 
found. Police measurements showed the cycle skidded an additional 62 feet before 
the rider was thrown.
Killed Instantly….
Hubbart was prominent in the news in 1953 when, just after he returned from Korea, 
he saved his father's life by quick thinking after his father's leg was nearly 
severed when a loaded shotgun fell from a tractor and the charge struck the father 
in the leg. Hubbartt quickly removed his belt and applied it as a tourniquet, 
saving both his father's life, and ultimately, the leg.
Korean Veteran 
Hubbartt was born Aug. 2, 1934, at Willmer, Minn., son of Ralph S. Hubbartt and 
Delores Foley Peterson. He came to Manitowoc 19 years ago where Sept. 1, 1956, he 
married Ruth Bellin. The past three years he had been employed by Reliance 
Construction Co.
A Korean War veteran from Jan. 9, 1952, to Jan. 10, 1955, a private first class with 
Co. M, 23rd Infantry, he served two years in Korea. He received the Untied Nations 
Service medal, the Korean Service ribbon with two bronze stars, the Combat Infantry 
badge and the National Defense Service medal.
Surviving are his wife, father of Rt. 4, Manitowoc, mother of Culver, Minn., three 
brothers, Ralph R. of Rt. 1, Manitowoc, Delbert of Hill City, Minn., and William of 
Papillion, Nebr.; nine step-brothers, Ralph S. of California, Raymond with U.S. Air 
Force, Washington State, and Terry, Paul, twin brothers Dale and Dennis, Brian, Tod

Rt. 4, Manitowoc; and paternal grandmother, Mrs. Mary Hubbartt of Rt. 4, Manitowoc.
