ELISABETHA LISSACK The infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Lissack died on Sunday last. The funeral took place on Tuesday, the remains being conveyed to Kiel for interment. Chilton Times, March 31, 1900
JOHAN LISSACK Johann Lisack has died from a stroke at an advanced age at the home of his daughter, Theresia, in Kiel. The deceased came to Kiel in 1860 as a man without means, and by dint of hard work on a 120 acre farm near Kiel, became wealthy. About 12 years ago he turned the farm over to his son and from then on his once happy destiny turned almost insufferable. First, his wife fell ill and died three years later in unspeakable pain, then his son squandered away the once valuable farm, left his wife, and disappeared. The broken old man had only $3,000 left of his once substantial fortune, and this shortly disappeared with Theodor Kerstens Bank in Chilton. The only bright spot was the goodness of his daughter Theresia who took care of the old gentleman until the end. Der Nord Westen, 02 Dec. 1909 ********** From the 1880 Calumet co.

EDWARD W. LULLOFF Sheboygan, Wis., Tuesday, September 9, 1930 Kiel Resident Is Killed In Crash With Gravel Train Accident Occurs On Falls Road Edward W. Lulloff Is Instantly Killed In Head-On Collision At Sheboygan Falls Edward W. Lulloff, 25, of Kiel met instant death at 4:03 p.m. Monday when his Ford coach crashed into the front of an eastbound three-car gravel train on Highway 23 at Sheboygan Falls. The accident occurred near Stop 13 where the Wisconsin Power and Light company's interurban line runs along the center of the highway. Lulloff was traveling westward at 25 or 30 miles an hour, according to witnesses. The impact of the heavy train loaded with many tons of sand and crushed stone completely smashed the front of the car and crushed the victim's head and chest. Broken glass at the point where the automobile was struck indicated that Motorman Otto Foerster, 1222 N. Twelfth street, brought the ponderous train to a stop within its own length of three cars. Theodore E. Uphoff, 936 Dillingham avenue, was the only other trainman with Foerster at the time of the crash. Fred Albertin who witnessed the crash, and Chester Granger, who resides nearby, ran to the scene of the accident but found Lulloff dead. Dr. Adam Pfeiler of Sheboygan Falls was summoned and when his examination revealed there was no possibility of the victim being alive, Coroner C.N. Sonnenburg was called. Had Sounded Whistle The coroner's preliminary investigation disclosed that Motorman Foerster had sounded his whistle near the top of the long slope leading eastward and had expected the driver of the automobile to turn from the center of the highway to the right side. "I saw the car coming toward us in the middle of the highway," Foerster said, "He turned out and then turned back. It was too late to avoid a collision but I stopped the train as quickly as it could be stopped on the down grade." Mr. Albertin, who was standing on the highway within a block of the point where the crash occurred, said Lulloff was traveling about 24 miles an hour and was on the tracks. He said he heard the whistle of the train but did not see the driver turn his automobile from the center of the highway. Mr. Granger did not see the actual crash but he did remember seeing the automobile traveling westward. He estimated its speed at 25 to 30 miles an hour. Sheriff L.C. Tasche, who was taking a patient to the state hospital at Winnebago, came upon the scene of the accident shortly after it happened and he, with Motorcycle Officer Harlan Case, aided in conducting the preliminary investigation. Chief Ed. George of Sheboygan Falls commented upon the fact that Lulloff was driving "into the sun" but he could not be certain that the driver was blinded by the sun at the time of the accident. It was noticeable that motorists traveling westward along that highway within the next hour or more after the accident experienced difficulty in keeping a clear view ahead because of the sun's rays. Coroner Sonnenburg ordered an inquest and a jury viewed the scene of the crash Monday evening. The jurors also viewed the body at the Robert H. Kroos Funeral Home where it was taken before its removal to Kiel. Members of the coroner's jury are: Bernard Fessler, Edwin Matthewson, John Rawlings, William Thaek, Captain N.P. Peterson, and Theodore Van Handel. The inquest will be held at the city hall at 10 a.m. Thursday. Born In St. Nazianz Edward A. Lulloff was born in St. Nazianz, Oct. 12, 1905, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lulloff. He attended the St. Nazianz parochial school and the Sheboygan Business college. Nine years ago the family moved to Kiel, where since Edward left business college, he was employed at the Lulloff & Son Hardware Co., operated by his grandfather, Herman Lulloff, and his uncle, William Lulloff. He is survived by his parents, four sisters, Misses Alexia and Eleanor of Sheboygan, Miss Marie and Antonia of Santa Monica, Calif., and three brothers, Alex, Alphonse and Frederick, all at home in Kiel. Fellow employees in the hardware and furniture store in Kiel said he left Kiel at 2 p.m., Monday, stating that he was going to Sheboygan Falls and Howards Grove, on business. He had apparently completed his business without delay, and was on his way back home when the tragedy occurred. Funeral services will be held at the home, 628 N. Third street, Kiel, at 9:30 a.m., Thursday, and at 10 a.m. at SS. Peter and Paul church in Kiel. The Rev. August Roden will officiate. Burial will be made in the Kiel cemetery.

CHRISTIAN J. MAYER KIEL DEATH WAS NOT A MURDER MILOSLAVICH SAYS INJURY DUE TO CATTLE Theory of Possible Assault on Chris Meyer(sic), Kiel, Found Dying, Is Disproved A declaration by Dr. Miloslavich, state pathologist, following his examination of the body of Christ Meyer, Kiel farmer, today, that death was due to injuries caused by hoofs of cattle, exploded the theory of murder which had been enter- tained by the authorities when Meyer's body was found, badly mutilated, in the barn at his home Saturday night. Dr. Miloslavich was called in by the district attorney and after examining the injuries on the head and body of the dead man said that there was no question but that the injuries were caused by Meyer having been trampled by the cows which he was attending. It is probable that as a result of the opinion of Dr. Miloslavich no inquest will be called by District Attorney Fischer as was originally planned unless relatives ask for it or some new developments are revealed. The examination showed that in addition to the skull fracture, five ribs were broken. County authorities today continued an investigation into mysterious circum- stances surrounding the death of Christ Meyer, 40-year-old Kiel resident found in a dying condition in his barn early Saturday night, in the belief that the man was the victim of a murderous assault. Meyer died in his home shortly after 9 o'clock as a result of injuries he sustained, apparently some time previous to being found in a semi-conscious condition. Belief that the man had been murdered was expressed by county authorities after an investigation at the home in the north limits of the city of Kiel. Suffering from a skull fracture and with his face and body badly cut and bruised, Mr. Meyer lived only a short time after his wife and others discovered him in the barn after his continued absence had caused the family to become worried about him. Calls State Pathologist Dr. Edward Miloslavich, state pathologist, has been called to assist county authorities who believe that the injuries sustained by the man could not have been caused by animals in the barn in which he was working. An examination after the deatah revealed that Mr. Meyer sustained a broken jaw, a skull fracture, his eyes were pushed in, the left ear was nearly severed from the head, several ribs were broken and the body was otherwise mutilated. Efforts to secure information from Mr. Meyer before he died were fruitless and he passed away soon after being taken into his home. Wife Finds Injured Man Mrs. Meyer, returning home about 8:30 after attending church services and unable to find her husband about the house, investigated and discovered the badly injured man in the barn, near the door of the building which he had just entered or was leaving. Summoning aid for neighbors, Mrs. Meyer made every effort to save her husband but he died shortly after being taken into the house. The man was last seen by members of his family at about 7:15 o'clock when he announced his intentions of going into the barn to milk the cows. Mrs. Meyer left the home shortly afterward to attend services at the church in Kiel and upon her return made inquiry for her husband and was told that he had not returned to the house. Accompanied by a son and young daughter, Mrs. Meyer went into the barn and found her husband lying near a door which he had apparently tried to open before collapsing. Panic stricken, Mrs. Meyer sought neighbors to come to her assistance and finally was able to reach John Wazny, the hired man at the home of relatives and he immediately returned to the home. Summoning a physician, Wazny then sought to secure details of the accident or murder but he also was unsuccessful. Lived After Injuries Indications that Mr. Meyer lived some time after sustaining his injuries was furnished by a trail of blood in the barn. He had milked three of his cows and the partly filled milk pail was found about 30 feet from where Meyer collapsed. Blood along box stalls on the east side of the barn, opposite to the side where the cattle were held in stanchions, showed that Mr. Meyer staggered along the wall of the barn for a considerable distance before he finally collapsed where he was found. Stock May Have Killed Him While authorities investigating the case hold to the theory that Mr. Meyer met his death as result of a murderous attack by some persons or person not now known, many Kiel residents are of the opinion that it is possible Meyer sustained his injuries by being kicked and trampled by the stock he was attending. It is said that Meyer had no known enemies and despite the fact that he had disagreements with neighbors, they were not serious and are not considered at all in the inquiry being made. The generally accepted belief at Kiel is that Mr. Meyer suffered a fainting spell and was trampled by the cows he was milking or that one of the animals may have kicked him and he was trampled before he was able to get away. It is believed that after escaping the animals Meyer made an attempt to leave the barn but collapsed before he could open the door. It is indicated by circumstances and location of the man when found that he was confused and did not know that he was not making for the regular exit. Wounds Are Peculiar On the other hand the wounds sustained by Meyer are peculiar and officers say that they could not have been made by the hoof of an animal, although there is the possibility that in trampling of the man by the cows might have caused the very serious mutilation shown by the body. The head wounds are pointed to as the most conclusive of an assault if one was made. No weapon of any kind was found and no clubs or other missile which might have been used in an attack could be discovered although search of the place was made in most thorough manner. Jury to Hear Evidence After an investigation of the circumstances surrounding the death, District Attorney L.F. Fischer and Coroner W.G. Kemner who were at Kiel with Sheriff Herman Carstens Sunday, ordered an inquest to be held. Jurors selected were Rudolph Heins, Fred Lulloff, Carl A. Wallman, Raymond Beckman, Edwin Stecker and Philip Mueller, all of Kiel. The jurors viewed the remains at the Meiselwitz funeral home and will hear testimony at a date to be selected after Dr. Miloslavich has completed his investi- gation. Life Long Resident Mr. Meyer was a life-long resident of the vicinity of Kiel and was born at St. Ann, near Chilton, on November 22, 1891. He attended the schools of the vicinity and on April 15, 1918 was married to Miss Marie Wick of Kiel who with six children, Charlotte, Francis, Robert, Madonna and Marion and Mildred, his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Meyer of Chilton and a brother, Joseph Meyer of Chilton, survive him. Funeral services will be held from the St. Peter and Paul church at Kiel at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning with Rev. A. Roder officiating. Interment will take place at the church cemetery.
