ALBERT RADEY, JR.   (d. 1935)

Tractor Crushes Youthful Farmer
Albert Radey Jr. Dies Instantly In Mishap On Farm Near City
Albert Radey Jr., 23-year-old farmer operating the Charles Hessel farm 
a mile northwest of the municipal airport, was almost instantly killed 
shortly after 7 a.m. today when a tractor he was operating overturned 
and impaled him on the prongs of a mired manure spreader.
No one saw the accident, but Radey's plight was discovered by his wife 
and Edward Holsen, a neighbor.  It was more than an hour after the 
accident before it was possible to release the body from beneath the 
tractor seat.  Another tractor from a nearby farm succeeded in righting 
the upended machine.
Dr. Gerald Ran, county coroner, who with Sheriff Max Hillier Jr., was 
called to the scene, said that Mr. Radey was probably instantly killed.  
He suffered a broken back and a crushed skull. There will be no 
inquest.
Soft ground on the field near the large barn yesterday mired the manure 
spreader hub deep. Mr. Radey tried to release the spreader with the use 
of a team of horses but was not successful.
Borrows a Tractor
This morning he secured a tractor from a nearby farm and hitched it to 
the spreader with a chain.
Examination of the chain after the accident revealed that instead of 
running the end through the hole in the draw-bar at the rear axle, Radey 
had taken a hitch over the housing of the axle. When he applied the 
power this hitch served as a lever to raise the front of the tractor. 
Radey was thrown back against the prongs of the manure spreader and 
pinned fast by the tractor.
First on the scene were Edward Holsen, who operates the next farm, and 
Roland Bierman, a neighbor boy who was walking down the road to assist 
Radey in the farm work. Both hurried to the barn to bring a team of 
horses but it was not possible to right the tractor and release Radey.
After additional help succeeded in righting the tractor the body of Mr. 
Radey was removed from the drum of the spreader and taken to Shimek and 
Schwartz parlors in this city.
Funeral Saturday
Announcement was made that funeral services will be held Saturday at 10 
a.m. from the St. Patrick church at Maple Grove in charge of the Rev. 
Father E.A. Radey of Holy Innocents Parish, this city, a cousin of the 
deceased.
Mr. Radey was born on the homestead farm in the town of Franklin near 
Taus, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Radey Sr.  After finishing the 
rural schools he took up farming and in 1931 was married to Bernice 
Layman of this city.  They took up residence on the present Hessel 
farm, which the deceased since operated.
Survivors are his widow, a two year old son, (private); two brothers, 
Henry and William, Taus; a sister Emily, city, and his parents, Mr. and 
Mrs. Albert Radey Sr., Taus.

DONALD RADEY

Donald Radey, 21, Is Victim Late Saturday (photo with article)
Driver and Two Other Passengers Slightly Injured
A 21 year old Manitowoc man was killed late Saturday afternoon when thrown out
of an automobile a mile north of Cato on County Highway A.
County traffic police said the victim, Donald P. Radey, of 1509 Washington St.,
was hurled from the car with such force that his body struck a network of 
overhead telephone wires spanning the highway at a height of 15 to 18 feet.
After snapping six wires, it landed on the highway and bounced several times
before coming to rest 65 feet north of the point where the car stopped.
The driver and two other passengers escaped with minor injuries. (snip-account
of names and injuries)
Official cause of Radey's death was listed by Coroner Dr. Theodore Teitgen as
a cerebral hemorrhage resulting from a skull fracture. His body was badly
mangled when it hit the wires.
Dr. Teitgen said an inquest will be held into the accident. (snip-traffic stats)
Says Speed 50-55 MPH
Strouf told investigating officers that he was traveling north at a speed of
between 50 and 55 miles an hour when the accident occurred shortly before 5 p.m.
Strouf said the car veered slowly to the right shoulder of the road for some
unknown reason and then crossed over to the left side into the ditch and started
rolling down the highway.
It was at this point that Radey was believed to have been thrown out. He was
sitting in the front seat next to the driver, according to police.

DANIEL REIDY

Farmer Fatally Injured In an Unusual Accident
Fractures Skull When He Falls Backward Trying to Pull Stubborn Calf 
Daniel Reidy, 57, Franklin farmer, a former resident of this city and father 
of six children, was fatally injured Saturday in a most unusual accident.
While helping a neighbor move some livestock from a barn in Franklin, Reidy 
slipped over backwards and struck his head on the cement floor. He sustained 
a basal skull fracture which caused his death four hours later.
No Inquest Planned.
Dr. Gerald Rau, Two Rivers, county coroner, who was summoned, said there will 
be no inquest. The coroner reported that although Reidy fell only his own 
length on the cement floor the impact was sufficient to cause a fatal skull 
fracture. Reidy walked, after the fall, to his own farm from the P. Rolland 
farm in Franklin, where the accident happened and at first refused to see a 
physician. 
Reidy, according to a report made to the coroner, had gone to the Rolland farm 
Saturday morning at 10 o'clock to buy some kerosene. Rolland was engaged in 
moving three calves from the barn to a field, Reidy offered to assist him.
A piece of new rope was attached to one of the calves and Reidy started to lead 
it from the barn. The animal was stubborn and as Reidy pulled backward the knot 
about the calf's neck slipped. Reidy fell over backward to the cement floor. He 
recovered consciousness and although complaining of injuries to his head was able 
to leave for the next farm where he resided with his family and Thomas Sullivan.
Condition Grew Worse 
Reidy's condition grew worse and he died at 3 p.m. Saturday shortly after a 
physician had been called.
Mr. Reidy was born in Morrison, Brown county, and spent the greater part of his 
life farming. He resided in this city for 10 years and about 10 years ago moved 
to the farm in the town of Franklin, which he occupied with Mr. Sullivan.
Survivors are his widow, who was Elizabeth McCarthy, Kellnersville; a daughter, 
Catherine, Green Bay; five sons, Timothy, James, Patrick, Daniel Jr., and Francis; 
and a brother, James, Wayside. 
Funeral services will be held Tuesday at 10 a.m. at the St. Patrick's church, 
Maple Grove. Burial will be in the adjoining cemetery.

JEREMIAH REIDY    (d. 1905)

Notes From Maple Grove:
Mr. Jerry Reedy (sic), one of the first settlers of Morrison, passed away 
Thursday evening, after a three months' illness, the cause of his demise being 
liver trouble. He was a well-informed man, and evinced much ability in discussing 
national issues. Men of high education and ability were always surprised when 
they entered into a discussion with him. He had a memory such as is seldom found 
in men. He never aspired to anything higher than to own and till a large, beautiful 
farm. When present at a gathering of men, he was always the central figure. He was 
never sarcastic. He was well read in ancient and modern history. He will be sadly 
missed by all with whom he was acquainted. Besides his widow, he leaves one daughter, 
three sons and one brother to mourn his demise. The funeral was held Monday from St. 
Patrick's church, interment being in Maple Grove cemetery, Rev. G. J. O'Connell 
officiating.

In the passing away of Mr. Reidy this vicinity loses one of its most  respectable citizens, a good neighbor, always willing to help a friend, a kind and indulgent brother and ideal man in every respect.

Remiker was the central figure in 1946 when a couple of slick strangers 
victimized him with the old handerkerchief "switch" trick, obtaining $3,000 
which Remiker had withdrawn from a Reedsville bank a few weeks before.
Discovery of the fire Saturday was made by Peter Gosz, Cato rural mail carrier, 
as he was traveling his route north of Grimms. At that moment the frame home 
was wrapped in flames. First on the scene was the Whitelaw fire department. 
Later a truck from the Reedsville department answered the call. 
Sheriff Clarence Baryenbruch and Coroner Theodore Teitgen were also summoned. 
The charred body of Remiker was found near a kitchen wood burning stove.
Swindled 8 Years Ago
Neighbors believe the farmer might have been boosting the fire with kerosene 
and an explosion resulted, preventing Remiker from escaping.
The Remiker swindle eight years ago broke when the farmer, who accumulated money 
down through the years by the sale of grain from his farm, admitted to county 
officers that he had been "taken" by the strangers who held a crucifix and rosary 
in front of him and offered him $10,000 with which to play Santa Claus to aged 
widows and orphans.
One of the strangers removed the $3,000 of Remiker's cash from a strong box and 
left in its place a magazine folded and held in a rubber band. The $25,000 the 
strangers put in the box to prove his good faith turned out to be another magazine 
faced with five $1 bills. Remiker found the worthless paper when he opened the 
box two weeks later. 
Mesmerized by Pair
In telling of the swindle at the time Remiker said he had been "mesmerized" by the 
strangers. The first stranger visited the Remiker farm at Christmas time, 1945. He 
told Remiker he had $7,000 and wanted to buy a farm, and gave his name as "August 
Huber" and said he lived west of Reedsville. Early in January the stranger was back 
again, talking farms, and was joined by a second stranger who said he as from 
Oklahoma. 
The latter told Remiker he was looking for his uncle, and had $10,000 in a bag to 
give to the uncle which he had left in Manitowoc. Then he proposed that he give the 
$10,000 to Remiker and Huber to distribute among the needy around Grimms. Then the 
Remiker $3,000 was rolled in a handerchief and put in the strong box. Then they 
locked the box and told Remiker they would go out Manitowoc for the $10,000. 
The two strangers never came back.
Mr. Remiker is survived by a brother, Joseph, in Milwaukee, and two sisters, Mrs. 
John Linsmeyer and Mrs. Joseph Wallender, both of Whitelaw.

May Salvage Charred Bills
Some of the charred and burned currency found in the ruins of the farm home of 
Frank Remiker, 84-year-old town of Franklin bachelor, burned to death in a fire 
that leveled the home April 5, will probably be salvaged.
Found in a wallet near Remiker's body was an undetermined amount of bills, so badly 
charred the denominations could not be determined. They were gathered up by firemen 
called to the farm fire, two miles north of Grimms. There was one other charred 
bunch of papers, which also might contain currency, found near the dead mean's body.
All of this was brought to the Manitowoc Savings Bank this week by Atty. Victor 
Miller of St. Nazianz, representing the heirs of the dead man. It will be taken to 
the Federal Reserve Bank at Chicago which has special equipment to check on burned 
currency and if the money can be identified as to denomination, the government will 
make good this amount, which would go to the estate.
Attorney Miller said Mr. Remiker had a safety deposit box at the Reedsville State 
Bank, which probably contains notes, papers and possibly currency. The key was never 
found in the ruins of Remiker's home and the bank is sending for a dulicate key, so 
the deposit box may be opened.
At the scene of the fire neighbors said they believed Remiker, who in his lifetime 
loaned money to farmers and friends on notes, possibly had some of currency hidden 
away in his small cottage. 
How the fire started in the Remiker home has never been determined. Relatives believe 
a stove exploded as he fed the fire kerosene to bring up the flames. The blaze was 
discovered by Peter Gosz, a rural mail carrier, on his route near the home. Remiker's 
charred body was located near the kitchen stove.
Remiker, a recluse who kept pretty much to himself, was victimized by a pair of smooth 
strangers in 1946, through the medium of the old handkerchief trick. They made off with 
$3,000 in cash. No trace was ever found of the pair. 
Mr. Remiker is survived by a brother and two sisters.

relatives and neighbors, as they would do the same for him. Marvin prided 
himself on having one of the cleanest cow barns around. His pride was also shown

in his earlier years to the latest John Deere equipment he updated, Marvin always 
kept them in perfect shape. 
Marvin enjoyed ushering at St. Patrick's in Maple Grove, weekly bowling and a 
good beer with friends and relatives. Many summer picnics were held at his home, 
a good time was had by all. He was a loving and caring brother and uncle. Elmer's 
six children and their families were his family. Many Christmas Eves were spent 
at his home as he enjoyed spending as much time as he could with them. There were 
always adventures to be had on his farm. As time moved on and he moved to 
Brillion, but he never lost his ability to have a good laugh and talk farming.

years, Clement, aged 5 years and Charles, one year old; also her 
mother, who is too ill to be told of her death, her father, Michael

Patrick's parish, Maple Grove on Nov. 16, when in the midst of friends and 
relatives, Miss Sadie Ebert became the bride of Mr. James Rolland. Rev. G. A. 
Casey performed the ceremony. The bride was attended by her cousin, Miss Maud 
Halloran of Escanaba, Mich., and Miss Mary Collins, cousin of the groom, of 
Denmark. The groom was attended by his cousin, Mr. William Rolland and a cousin 
of the bride's, Mr. Stephen Savage. Little Katherine Welch acted as flower girl. 
The procession was led by Mr. Stephen Savage and Miss Mary Collins, followed by 
Mr. William Rolland and Miss Maud Halloran. Then came Katherine Welch, the flower 
girl followed by the bride and groom.
The bride wore a white satin dress trimmed with a georgette crepe and lace. She 
wore a wreath and veil and carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses, maiden hair 
ferns and caught with sweet peas. Miss Halloran wore a white lace dress trimmed 
with pink and wore a pink picture hat. Miss Collins wore a pink satin dress with

3 GENERATIONS HELD LAND WITH NO CLEAR TITLE
One of the most interesting transactions in sale of real estate in years took 
place today when Sheriff Schuette sold an eighty-acre tract of land in the town 
of Maple Grove, the title of which records in the register of deeds office is 
in the name of the original owner, John Ryan, who entered it from the government 
in pioneer days and died in 1861.
Three generations have lived on this place and died without the recording of any 
transfers of the title by deed, will or otherwise.
The third male occupant, James Ryan, a bachelor living alone, burned to death 
with the building on the place some four years ago.
The original owner had three sons, two of whom went to Iowa many years ago and 
prospered. The third son, Patrick, went into occupancy of this farm. This occupant, 
Patrick Ryan, married a widow named Burns with two children. Patrick conveyed one 
of the two forties to his wife, so that when the two died one forty went to his 
six children, and the other forty to the children of both.
Several of this third genertion have died leaving children of the fourth generation 
which, with the numerous descendants of the two sons of the second generation 
scattered through several Western states, made a situation which the circuit judge 
declared to be the most complicated affair of its kind that ever came to his 
attention. 
In a case like this the court issued an order fixing the fractional interests of the 
parties and ordering that the land be sold by the sheriff and the proceeds divided 
among the persons concerned. As the fractional interest appear at the sale by Sheriff 
Schuette this morning a large number of neighbors from Maple Grove were present. 
Several of them made bids on the farm. It was knocked down to Bill Ryan of Milwaukee, 
who is one of the person entitled to share in the distribution. It brought $6,125.

Notes from Cato:
The many friends of James Sheahan were grieved to learn of his sudden death at 
his home at Maple Grove. On Tuesday evening, Sept. 18, Mr. Sheahan was in 
apparent good health up to within a few hours before his death, when he was 
stricken with an attack of heart failure, which resulted in his death before 
a doctor could be summoned. A man of excellent character, the death of James 
Sheahan removes one of the best citizens of our community.
Formerly owning a farm on the town line between Cato and Franklin, Mr. Sheahan 
had many good friends in this neighborhood and his death will be keenly felt.

he has acquired extensive land holdings for himself and family. Mr. Sheahan is
