1914
Mrs. Albertina Sipp,
widow of the late Frank Sipp, passed to her final
reward at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Fred. Ohm, on Second Street at 2
o’clock Sunday morning, March 1, 1914, the cause of her death being stomach
trouble, which confined her to her bed for two weeks previous to her
death. Deceased was born on Feb. 23,
1833, at Sabo, Germany, and, unattended, came to America and located in this
city in August, 1856, and has ever since made it her home. July 10, 1850, she was married to Frank Sipp, who died in this city on August 1, 1874. Two children survive her, Edward Sipp and Mrs. Fred Ohm, also four grandchildren, all of
whom reside in Watertown. Tuesday
afternoon her funeral took place from St. Luke’s Lutheran Church and her remains were interred in Oak
Hill Cemetery beside those of her late husband.
Mrs. Sipp’s death is greatly
regretted here, especially by the older residents, to whom she was well
known. She was a most excellent lady, and
it may well be said of her that she led a truly Christian life, and faithfully
and honorably fulfilled her mission on earth as a wife and mother, friend and
neighbor.
