H. J. AMMANN cemetery #82 H. J. Ammann, Pioneer Business Man Dies on Wednesday Henry J. Ammann, 67, widely known Kiel manufacturer, long a leader in musical circles, and the first mayor of the city of Kiel, died at his home this week Wednesday shortly after noon. His passing marked the end of a long illness from which there could be no recovery. His passing also takes from Kiel one of her best known and loved sons, a dominant factor in the civic growth of the community. Born on a farm in the town of Rhine Feb. 8, 1869, he came to Kiel with his parents at the age of two years. His entire remaining life was spent here. Early in life he developed a talent for music, and at the age of 17 organized the Kiel Arion Band, serving as its director and guiding spirit for many years. In 1890, when he was but 21 years old, he bought the August Kurz cigar factory which still exists, and of which he remained the active head until illness forced him to retire over a year ago. His factory from the outset enjoyed great success, and during 1902 turned out a half million cigars. He was united in marriage with Miss Flora Lindner of this city on Sept. 22, 1892. Three children were born to them, all of whom survive. They are Mrs. L. H. (Norma) Schaar and Mrs. Elmer (Vera) Toepel of this city, and Mrs. Valmer (Carmen) Goltry of Litchfield, Conn. Also surviving him besides his widow are three grandchildren, and a brother, Joseph and a sister, Miss Catherine, both of Los Angeles, Calif. His prominence in local affairs led his fellow townsmen to choose him as village president in 1901. He served until 1902, and again from 1903 to 1904. In 1920, when Kiel was incorporated as a city, Mr. Ammann was chosen the first mayor. (no newspaper named, April 1936) ********** Funeral services for Henry J.

THEODORE AMMANN II cemetery #82 He was the son of Marie Agnes Riede and Theodor Ammann the 1st. Theodor was born on December 23, 1832 at or near Bedferdig, Rhin Provence, Germany. He served for three years in the Prussian army as a guard in Berlin and there made good use of his spare time to improve his knowledge especially in music in which he was gifted. At this time the Prussian government gave every soldier an educational opportunity without cost. In 1857 he married Gertrude Born in Hemmerden, Kreis Reus, in the Government District of Düsseldorf, Germany, Rhine Province. They came to America in 1864 and one of her brothers accompanied them. They crossed in one of the first steamships. It took twelve days to cross the Atlantic and twelve more days to travel from New York City to Wisconsin. Three children had been born in Germany — Joseph, Katrina, and Anna. They lived for a short time in New Holstein, Calumet County, Wisconsin, where Rosa was born. Agnes was born in Fond du Lac, Wisconsin and Henry in Rhine Township, Sheboygan County, Wisconsin. Theodor Ammann II with his family moved to Kiel about 1871, where he made his living as a cabinet maker. He bought land in Kiel along the Sheboygan River from Hans Greve in 1886. Their first home was at the corner of Broadway and Fifth Street. Later they moved to a home at what is now Sixth Street. He sold one of his lots on the river (406 - 5th Street) to his son Henry in 1902. The following is taken from Theodor Ammann’s obituary published in the Kiel paper, which was published in German at that time; translated, it reads: “After he had been in Kiel a short time he directed a band, and because of his exceptional tenor voice became an enthusiastic member of the Kiel vocal society. The greatest service rendered by the deceased was the tireless pains he took in his instructions of the members of the youth music group. One can truly say that the quality of the present Kiel Anon Band is largely the result of his efforts, because many of the members were his former pupils.” Another quotation from the same source: ”Mr. Ammann was liberal and tolerant and allowed all of his fellow men to have their own convictions. He was a great friend of nature, raised flowers and bees while he was still strong enough to do so. Those he leaves behind may console themselves with the knowledge that the deceased leaves a good reputation and lives on in spirit as a truly good man.” He died March 1, 1913 and was buried in the Kiel Cemetery where the Kiel Anon Band played a last tribute to their former teacher. His wife died November 1, 1913 and rests beside him. Compiled by Valmer Jack Goltry, June 27, 1983 ************ Mr. Theodor Ammann Our naturalist friend tended his flowers and bees, as long as he was able. His profession was as a cabinetmaker, and he continued his handwork until his age made him set his tools to rest. The family life of Mr. Theodor Ammann and his family was very happy, and his death is very painful for his wife of nearly 54 years. Mrs. Ammann who was born Miss Gertrud Born in Hemmerden, Kreis Reuss, Regierungsbezirk Dusseldorf, Germany where he lead her to the altar, into a union of such close togetherness. She and the rest of those left behind, want him to be remembered as a good and industrious man of his time and that his spirit lives on. On Wednesday afternoon at 2 o’clock the burial took place. The Arion-Kapelle (Band) stood around the edge of the open grave, of their highly esteemed master teacher as a final wish for him to rest in peace. Kiel Record — 1913, March 3, 1913

OLIVER ASLACKSON cemetery #44 From Der Nord Westen, 18 Aug. 1904: A terrible accident occurred yesterday afternoon at the intersection of State and 8th Streets. Elderly Oliver Aslakson was crossing the street but because of his age had lost his hearing and so was unable to discern the approaching streetcar. The motorman was unable to see the old man until it was too late because the car was coming around the corner. Therefore, Aslakson was hit head-on by the fast moving streetcar. Naturally the old man was knocked down and dragged some distance before the car could be stopped. It is reported that his chest was crushed, his head badly injured and both legs broken. Death must have occurred in the blink of an eye. A coroner’s inquest will be held today to determine the degree of the motorman’s responsibility. ********* From Der Nord Westen, 25 Aug. 1904: The coroner’s jury, which was considering last week’s accident in which Oliver Aslaksen lost his life, decided that the streetcar company was not responsible; however, the so-called fenders on the streetcar were not aligned as they should have been.
