MANSEAU, ADOLPH

DIED
At his farm home in the town of Ashwaubenon, Brown County, near DePere, 
on the 10th day of March, 1893, of paralysis, Adolph Manseau, aged 66 
years, 9 months and 14 days. He was born at St. Francis, Province of 
Quebec, Canada, on May 26th 1826, was married to Margaret Ery of 
Mishicott, Wis. on April 11th 1852.
A wife and three children survive his loss; Two sons and one daughter, 
F.E. Manseau of Two Rivers, Wis., Florence B. Franken of Minneapolis, 
Minn., and Homer D. Manseau who resided with his father.
Adolph Manseau came to Manitowoc Wis. about the year 1844 and was 
engaged principally in the lumber business until August 1876, when he 
removed to his present home in Brown county and engaged in farming.
Like the history of most men, it can be written on a page and is very 
similar to that of others who lived clean lives,and may be summed up 
from the cradle to the grave about as follows; He was a good neighbor, 
kind father, husband and friend, and he loved, labored and suffered, and 
died square with the world. No record can say more for any man or make 
his death a source of more sincere sorrow to those who knew him.

MCCORMICK, MAJOR JOSEPH
April 18, 1787 - August 26, 1875

Death of Major McCormick
The intelligence was received in this city on Friday last that Hon. 
Joseph McCormick, one of the oldest and most respected citizens in this 
section of the State, died at Ahnapee that morning. On Saturday a large 
delegation of our citizens started for Ahnapee to attend his funeral on 
Sunday which was conducted with Masonic honors and very largely 
attended. From the Kewaunee Enterprise we learn that he was born in the 
Town of Wyoming, Penn., April 18, 1787. He received a common school 
education and was by occupation a farmer. From Wyoming he went with his 
parents to Steuben County, N.Y., in 1789; to Lawrenceville, Tioga Co., 
Penn., in 1813; to Louisville, KY in 1829; to Covington, Ind. In 1932; 
to St. Louis, Mo., temporarily in 1841 and to Rob Roy, Warren Co., Ill. 
In 1944; to Manitowoc, Wis., in 1848. For several yeasrs he was 
operating backwards and forwards between Indiana and Texas and was 
elected a member of the convention to form a constitution for Texas, but 
his family residing in Indiana and having been elected a member of the 
assembly from that State in the same year, he did not take a seat as a 
member of the Texas convention. He was a member of the assembly from 
Fountain County, Ind., in 1839, 1840, 1841 and 1842 and elected to the 
Assembly of Wisconsin in 1870 in the 84th year of his age; was 
postmaster at Rob Roy, Fountain County, Ind. Under General Jackson, he 
entered the military service of the U.S. During the war of 1812 and was 
commissioned as Captain and promoted to major, participated in the 
engagements at Tippecanoe, Queenston Heights, Lundy's Lane and the 
blowing up of Fort Erie, abandoned the army in 1816. For the past three 
years he has suffered severely from the effects of an accident 
occasioned by his being thrown out of a buggy and this doubtless 
hastened his death.

MCGILLIVRAY, SELINA GLADYS 
August 7, 1923 - May 23, 2009

Selina Gladys "Sally" McGillivray passed on peacefully 
at the age of 85 in the early moments of May 23, 2009. 
She died at Marquis Care Nursing Center in North Portland 
from conditions related to age. Sally remained the sweet 
person known to all to the end. She was born Aug. 7, 1923, 
in Mishicot, Wis., the first child of George Rhein, a 
dairyman, and Amy (Dorgan) Rhein. The new family moved to 
the Pacific Northwest soon after and made homes for 
themselves in places like Oregon City; Oysterville, Wash.; 
Kelso, Wash.; Kalama, Wash.; Albany; then Seaside and 
Gearhart on the coast. In 1938 George acquired the family 
dairy farm in Dayton. In the 1940s with the onset of World 
War II, Selina moved out on her own, thereafter acquiring 
the nickname "Sally." She attended Marylhurst College, 
afterward moving to Portland where she was an elevator 
operator at Meier & Frank. In 1944 she volunteered for the 
Marine Corps Women's Reserve. After training in Quartermasters 
School, she was assigned to Marine Corps Headquarters, 
Washington, D.C. It was in the Marines that she met her future 
spouse, Roy McGillivray, an Army medic. After the war they 
married in Tampa, Fla., the beginning of a large and beautiful 
family. Roy and Sally had eight children in Tampa. In 1963 
the family moved cross-country to Portland where their modern 
day journey on the Oregon Trail was described in a feature 
article in The Oregonian. Back in Oregon, Sally settled down 
as a housewife in the family home in the Sellwood-Westmoreland 
neighborhood, as the kids continued their early education. The 
family later moved to a new house just across from Lents Park,
and Sally was active in the parish of St. Peter Catholic Church 
and the work of the Center For Peace. After careers as an 
educator and stage and screen actor, Roy McGillivray passed 
away in July of 1993. Before her retirement Sally worked as 
a secretary for Al Kader, Kaiser Permanente and the U.S. Social 
Security Administration. She had an early interest in art and 
drawing and her sewing not only kept the kids and household 
well appointed, but gave her many hours of enjoyment. 
(Survivors omitted for privacy.)
Of her Rhein siblings, Sally was predeceased by her brother, 
Raymond Rhein, and sister, Marjory Shawn.
(Survivors omitted for privacy.)
Sally's wonderful lifetime will be remembered in so many ways 
by her large family and many dear friends. A memorial vigil and 
reception in her honor will be held at 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 2, 
2009, in Zeller Chapel of the Roses, 2107 N.E. Broadway, Portland.

Patrick McMahon a former resident of Maple Grove and at one time 
a resident of Manitowoc is reported to have died in Kansas last 
week. He was a brother of Mrs. Thomas Earles of this place.

MCMAHON, PATRICK J.
January 29, 1855 - January 26, 1931

PAT MCMAHON PASSES ON
News came from Milwaukee Monday that Patrick J. McMahon had died at his 
home there. To the young people this probably meant little if anything 
as Mr. McMahon left Manitowoc in 1907 but to everyone who recalled 
county events prior to that time, the vision arose of an unusual 
personage known and liked by everybody.
P.J. McMahon was born and brought up in Meeme, this county. He was a 
farmer in early manhood and held town offices. He was 76 years of age. 
He was nominated to the Democratic ticket and elected to the office of 
Clerk of Circuit Court in 1898 and held the office for three successive 
terms. Five of Mr. McMahons six sons were at his bedside when the end 
came Monday, Dr. Joseph P., Atty Stephen J. of the United State Board of 
Tax Appeals, Edward M., second vice president of the Chase National 
Bank, N.Y., Dr. Francis B., Atty Omar T. Another son, Raymond is located 
in Kansas City. A daughter preceded him in death.
At Milwaukee, Mr. McMahon was engaged in life insurance work until 
failing health compelled him to relinquish this a few years ago. His 
first wife, Margaret Gray, died many years ago and his second wife, 
Johanna(sic) Shanahan, mother of Raymond died several years ago. He had 
a justifiable pride in his brilliant sons who have won distinction in 
medicine, law and banking. Politicians come and go but few leave any 
permanent impress. No one who met Mr. McMahon more than casually was 
likely to forget him. He was not of the back-slapping, exuberant type, 
straining to be a good fellow. He had intelligence, poise and dignity 
and he had that in definable something that makes an attractive 
personality. He had a penetrating Irish wit, but it carried no sting. It 
was a common saying that Pat could buy refreshments for a voter with an 
air of having a favor done for him instead of doing one. People who 
deemed themselves his friends were legion. He had character and native 
ability. The duties of his office were performed with ease and 
competency. In a big field, Mr. McMahon would have gone far in politics 
had he set himself to it, or any one of many another field as well. Not 
many of us pass on with expressions of regret so general as the death of 
P.J. McMahon evoked in Manitowoc County this week. The funeral was held 
Wednesday morning from St. John's Cathedral in Milwaukee. Interment was 
in Fairview Mausoleum.

MCNUTT, ROLLIN
December 19, 1819 - April 29, 1898

Died on April 29, in Ash Rock township. Mr. Rollin McNutt, an early and 
most highly respected resident of the county. The funeral services were 
conducted on Sunday, April 30 in the Ash Rock stone church by Rev. 
Emmerson of Osbourne in the presence of a large concourse of sorrowing 
friends.
Rollin McNutt was born Nov. 19, 1819 at Blanford, Mass. At the age of 14 
he moved with his parents to Ohio where he was married in 1843 to Miss 
Melissa House. To this union there was born in Ohio, Julia, Ira A and 
Walter R. McNutt. In 1856 the family moved to Wisconsin where in 1860 
Hubert C. was born. At the funeral all of the children and all but two 
of the grandchildren now living were present.
Mr. McNutt went into service of the U.S. in 1864 and served until the 
close of the war. He moved from Wisconsin to Rooks County in the fall of 
1878 and took a farm in Ash Rock township on which he has since resided. 
His faithful wife died Nov. 18, 1891 and they now repose side by side in 
the city of the dead.
Mr. McNutt came from a family of highly skilled mechanics. He was of 
rugged constitution and strong physique. Three of his brothers, older 
than he, are still living. All his life he was strictly temperate, never 
having used stimulants of any kind. He was a man of strong convictions 
and firm decided character. Once sure that he was right, nothing could 
swerve him from what he considered his duty and he was always outspoken 
in giving utterance to his sentients. In 1858 he became a member of the 
Congregational Church at Cato, Wisconsin and continued his adherence to 
that denomination to the last. He was a liberal giver to all charitable 
and worthy causes. The loss of Mr. McNutt removes one of the noblest and 
best specimens of American manhood and his memory will ever be cherished 
by a large circle of devoted friends.

town of Cato, that would later be owned by my parents, Wilbert & Gertrude Hastreiter.)

MEXICO, BENJAMIN Y.

INDIAN CHIEF, BORN AT RAPIDS IN 1835, 
PASSES AWAY AT GOVERNMENT RESERVATION, 82 YRS
Mexico Was Son of Chief Waumegeshko, Early Day Leader of Tribes and 
Signer of Treaty of 1833 for Which He received Medal from U.S.
Benjamin Y. Mexico, Indian chieftain, born at Rapids, this county in 
1835, is dead at the government reservation at Keshena, according to 
news received in the city today. Chief Mexico died on Christmas day 
at the age of 82 years. The burial was held at Keshena.
Mexico was the son of Chief Waumegeshko, familiarly known as Wampum, 
who was the leader of the mixed tribes which, inhabited Manitowoc 
county in the early 30's and remained here until the late 50's. Chief 
Waumegeshko was one of the signers of the treaty of 1833, known as the 
Chicago treaty, which ceded to the whites all of the lands in the 
northwest section, in recognition of his participation in the treaty, 
he was presented with a medal by the government.
The Indians did not leave this section, following the treaty but 
Waumegeshko and his tribe remained in this section until the outbreak 
of the civil war, the camp of the Indians being located at what is 
known as Cato Falls. The camp was there at the time of the Indain scare 
of 1842 when the district was aroused to terror by reports of an uprising 
of the tribe. Two whitemen, who refused to believe the report, visited 
Waumegeshko's camp and found the Indians quiet and with no signs of the 
reported uprising apparent. The chief accompanied them to Rapids to give 
his personal assurance that there was no trouble.
Mexico, whose death is reported, was known to many of the older residents 
of the city and county and after going to the Keshena reservation, where 
he has been since leaving here, he made several visits to the city, and 
was a guest of people he knew as a youth, including the late Mrs. P.P. 
Smith, Mrs. P.J. Pierce and Mrs. N.B. Morse.
Eight years ago he came here as the guest of the County Historical society 
for dedication of a monument to his late father. He was a man of 
intelligence, though little educated and was a recognized leader at Keshena. 
He had taken much interest in religious work and was affiliated with the 
work of the Episcopal church at the reservation.
Mexico's father died in 1844 and his son was chief of the tribes later.

Death at Muskegon
Body of Joseph Meyer Found Floating in Lake Near a Michign City
Muskegon City, Mich., May 22 (Special)
The body of a man found floating in Muskegon Lake has been identified as 
that of Joseph Meyer of Manitowoc. The man was about 50 years of age and 
was well dressed, though there was no money in his pockets. There is 
some suspicion of foul play but a more reasonable theory is that he fell 
off the dock. Meyer came to Muskegon but a short time ago. He carried a 
prayer book, bearing the inscription "Joseph Meyer, aus Bieren, Germany"
The body later was identified as that of a man who introduces himself as 
Joseph Meyer of Manitowoc.

MIERZWIAK, FR. LIGUORI
January 12, 1933 - October 12, 2013

Those who educate children well are more to be honored than they who produce them; 
for these only gave them life, those the art of living well. These words, attributed to the 
philosopher Aristotle, can easily be used to sum up the mission and purpose of Liguori 
Mierzwiak, OFM.
Liguori was born in Toledo, Ohio on January 12, 1933 to Roman and Jean (Wisniewski) 
Mierzwiak. He was baptized Norman Thomas at St. Stanislaus Kostka Church in Toledo 
on January 29th. Having completed his elementary education at St. Stanislaus Kostka 
School and attended Central Catholic High School in Toledo for three years, Kiguori 
(then known as Norman) transferred to St. Bonfaventure High Schol in Sturtevant, 
Wisconsin, for his senior year. Having completed high school in 1950, Liguori was accepted 
by Fr. Isidore Cwiklinski, OFM, Provincial Minister; into the novitiate of the Order of Friars 
Minor at Assumption BVM Friary in Pulaski, Wisconsin. After completing philosophical 
studies at St. Francis College in Burlington, Wisconsin, and theological studies at Christ the 
King Seminary in West Chicago, Illinois. Liguori was ordained to the priesthood by Bishop 
Martin McNamara in West Chicago on June 6, 1959. Liguori continued his studies in Moral 
Theology at Catholic University of America in Washington, D.C.
The first decade after completing studies included stints as an instructor in Latin and Greek 
at St. Francis College in Burlington (1960-1961); preacher and home missionary in West 
Chicago (1961-64) retreat director at Lourdes Retreat House in Cedar Lake, Indiana (1964-1966) 
and instructor in Latin and Polish vice-rector, and vice-disciplinarian at St. Anthony of Padua High 
School in Watkins Glen, New York (1966-70). In 1970 Liguori completed a master?s program 
in Educational Administration at Cornell University.
With the closing of the high school in Watkins Glen in 1970, Liguori journeyed east to join other 
friars who opened Archbishop Ryan High School in Philadelphia. With an all-male student body 
reaching almost 2500 students, Liguori found plenty of opportunities to put his wealth of experience 
and playful humor to good use. He served the high school community from 1970 to 1993 as an 
instructor, dean of discipline, vice principal, and principal (1978-84). No matter what duties Liguori 
took on, it was clear that the student was number one, that the teacher must stay two steps ahead of 
the student to outfox whatever life presents, that joy was necessary for any success, and that 
relationships are for life: ?Ligs?, as he was known, had an uncanny ability to remember people and 
dates, and he used that gift to maintain life long relationships with his students and their families.
In 1993, after 23 years in Philadelphia, Liguori took a much earned sabbatical during which he spent 
time on a Tohono?tom Indian reservation near Tucson, taught English to Polish and South American 
Franciscan seminarians in Jerusalem and taught English in Lipnica Murowana, Poland.
After this year of prayer, study and rest, Liguori stretched himself into new ministries including stints 
as associate pastor at St. Stanislaus Parish in Cleveland (1994-95), chaplain to the Felician Sisters 
in Lodi, New Jersey (1995), missionary to the Holy Land in Jerusalem and Ein Karem and editor 
of the Holy Land Magazine (1995-1997), chaplain to the sisters and to St. Mary?s Home in 
Manitowoc, Wisconsin (1998-99, 2002-03), and pastor at Assumptin Parish in Bridgeport, 
Michigan (1990-2001).
In 2003, having completed a life of public ministry in which he was able to make each person he 
met feel like they were the only person in the world, Liguori retired to a ministry of prayer at 
Queen of Peace Friary in Burlington, Wisconsin. The continued decline of his health, and especially 
that keen memory that was so legendary, necessitated Liguori?s transfer to St. Mary?s Home in 
Manitowoc, Wisconsin, in 2007.
Liguori?s health continued to decline steadily necessitating a short stay in the hospital. He returned 
to St. Mary?s Home where on Saturday, October 12th, having taught many the art of living well, 
he peacefully welcomed sister death in the 80th year of his life, the 59th year of his profession as 
a friar minor, and the 54th year of his ordination.
The Mass of Christian Burial for our brother Liguori will be celebrated with the friars, his sister 
Marlene Rosinski, other family, friends, and residents at St. Mary? Home in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, 
on Friday, October 18, 2013 at 12:00 PM, with visitation beginning at 10:30 AM in the chapel. 
Burial will take place in the Provincial Cemetery in Pulaski, Wisconsin, at a later date.
The Pfeffer Funeral Home, Manitowoc, is assisting the family with funeral arrangements.

WYMAN MURPHY DIES IN WEST
Early Day Sheriff of This County, Meets Sudden End at Los Angeles.
Wyman J. Murphy, one of the early day residents of the county and sheriff in 1860, 
died suddenly at Los Angeles, Cal., Saturday, news of his demise reaching here in 
dispatches to friends. No deatails of the death are given. Mr. Murphy removed from 
Manitowoc years ago and has resided in California much of the time since. He visited 
the city two years ago.
In the late 50's and early 60's Mr. Murphy was prominent as a resident of the city and 
was one of few republican office holders in that day, having been elected sheriff in 1860. 
He resigned the office in 1862 to enlist in the army, several county officers giving up their 
positions at that time. Mr. Murphy was engaged in business and was the owner of a mill 
at Rapids when that place was the center of the county's industrial life. Mr. Murphy is 
survived by a wife and two daughters, one of whom is a resident at Manila, P.I.

NAGLE, JAMES
1851 - September 17, 1881


NAGLE, JOHN

On Tuesday of last week, John Nagle, Sen., a former resident of this 
county, died at Billings, Missouri. Many people in Meeme will remember 
the bright, active, young man whose generosity was proverbial and whose 
whole nature was without a taint of selfishness. When just upon the 
threshold of manhood he enlivened in an Illinois regiment and soon won 
reputation for reckless daring as a soldier, and fidelity as a comrade. 
He took part in many of the heavy engagements in the Valley of the 
Mississippi and was repeatedly wounded and twice captured. His entire 
disregard of personal safety was the wonder of all who knew him, and 
often earned him exemption from the consequences of minor breaches of 
discipline, for the officers admired the young soldier who seemed to 
play with death. A severe wound unfitted him for service and he was 
discharged in 1864. He had reached the position of sergeant. He accepted 
promotion reluctantly as the duties of an officer were distasteful to 
him. Indeed strict discipline was irksome to him, gifted as he was with 
abundant vitality and courage which shrank from no danger.
At the close of the war he went west. The hardships and dangers of the 
unexplored country had a fascination for him. Money was dross to him 
after it was secured. Of a speculative turn of mind, at times he was 
wealthy; then a new venture would sweep everything away. He had no fear 
of poverty and no love of wealth and experienced the vicissitudes of 
both. But the hardships of southern prisons and wounds received in 
battle shattered what seemed to be an iron constitution, and death 
claimed him before his years had brought him much beyond the zenith of life.
No one knew him who was not bound to him by the ties of friendship. 
Schoolboy friendship is generally of a transitory kind, seldom extending 
into the period of mature life; but no school-mate of his has forgotten 
the young fellow who "never bullied a small boy or turned his back to a 
big one." And all,-the then little ones now approaching middle life, and 
those whose more advanced years brought then in closer intimacy and more 
direct association with him, will leave with genuine sorrow of the death 
of their friend whose life was attuned in harmony with the best impulses 
of humanity.

TELLS OF DEATH OF WM PECK
The following is clipped from the "Almagordo Times", relating to the 
death of William C. Peck, who was well known as a former businessman 
here and had many friends who regret to learn that his removal to a 
different climate failed to restore his health as he hoped it would.
Wm. C. Peck was born at Two Rivers, Wisconsin, in 1862 and died at 
Almagordo, N.M. Sunday, April 3rd, 1921. Funeral services were held at 
the M.E. church Monday afternoon, Rev. J.E. Fuller conducting them after 
which burial took place in Mount Vista cemetery.  Mr. Peck came to 
Almagordo about two years ago in an effort to fight off that dreaded 
disease tuberculosis and during his residence here made a host of warm 
friends who sympathize with his sorrowing relatives. During the last 
several months of his illness, a niece, Miss Nellie Heap of Two Rivers, 
Wis., was at his bedside ministering to his wants.

FREEZES IN RAILWAY CAR
John Pelican, aged 27, had been living with his wife's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles 
Messman, in the Town of Two Creeks, this county, because of his inability to find 
employment. About four weeks ago he left with the expressed intention of again 
searching for employment. The first news of him came last Sunday when a telegram 
came from a suburb of Buffalo, N.Y., stating that his frozen body had been found in 
a refrigeration car at that place. The car had been loaded at Chicago the previous 
Friday and started for Buffalo Pelican could have escaped from the car easily but he 
evidently preferred sticking it out to risking a jump from a moving train. He was warmly 
dressed and had a traveling bag containing a good, neatly pressed suit and other clothing. 
Orders were sent to send the body to Kewaunee, Pelican's old home. He is survived by 
his wife, two daughters of tender years and three brothers.

Mrs. Pemberton (nee Knickelbein) who spent her youth here, died of gas
inhalation in her Chicago residence. Whether it was an accident or a suicide attempt
has not been established, but the Chicago authorities are of the opinion that it was
suicide because Mrs. Pemberton had been quite ill for a long time. The deceased,
who was survived by her husband and 4 children, had many relatives in our city.
