"To live with them again the tragedies
The hopes, the fears, the gallant victories
That marked the tireless pace of those who sleep
Who lived and fought and died that we might reap
The harvest of their vision and their toil."

There is an interesting note for Joh Otto Sch. that says 23 Mar 1776 he
enlisted as a Waldeck soldier for the American war of Independence, he
deserted 28 Apr 1776. Sounds like he signed up in King George's British army
to fight in the US and had a change of heart.

UNIONTOWN JOURNAL
PIONEER CITIZEN LAID TO REST HERE
John J. Schnettler Laid To Rest After a Month of Severe Illness.
John J. Schnettler, age 72, one of Uniontown's best known citizens,
passed away at St.Joseph's Hospital last Friday after a month of severe
illness. His ailment made it necessary for two operations the first of
which was very successful and with no outward fear for the second.
However his weakened condition failed him and he died at 11:00 a.m. on
last Friday.
"John" as every person in the community knew him, had spent the last 42
years in Uniontown. He was a cabinetmaker and carpenter by trade and
there is scarcely a home in Uniontown which has not some of his splendid
work. Everyone knew him for his intense desire to make someone else
happy; his genuine smile,and his happy disposition will long be remembered.
He leaves a widow; three sons and four daughters, these being: P.W.
Schnettler,
Lewiston; A.J. Schnettler, Clarkston; J.J. Schnettler, Alberta; Mrs. Byron
Richardson, Colton; Mrs. Harry Esser, Spokane; and Rose and Helen Schnettler
living at home.
The funeral was held last Tuesday from St. Boniface Catholic Church which
was filled with the many sorrowing relatives and friends. Rev. Father
Loeffler
conducted both services at the church and at the cemetery. The pallbearers
were J.B. Hattrup, Lambert Taufen, George Schemel, P.W. Busch, John Kinzer
and O.A. Moneymaker.
