FRANK MOSELER
From the Manitowoc County Chronicle
December 1, 1906
Our thanks are due to Mr. Franz Moseler for a bottle of fine wine
of his own vintage. Franz is an expert at making wine, having been
reared in a wine country. We are as grateful to Franz for the wine
as he is to John Schroeder for a hunk of venison which bore double
evidence of John's superior marksmanship and that the dear
had not died a natural death.

DIED AS HE WISHED TO
That he might pass away without long illness so as not to become a burden
to himself or others was a wish oft expressed to his friends by Franz
Moseler. And now a kindly Providence has granted the wish for, last Friday,
the time came for him to answer the final summons. Aged 76 years, he passed
away at the home of his son, Nicholas, on Twenty-second street, having
retired to his room for a little rest, not feeling well after dinner.
He was called for supper and did not respond. Entering the chamber the
family found that he had gone upon his last rest. He had been in apparent
good health and strolled about town in these beautiful October days with
his usual cheerful greetings to his many friends up to the day of his
death. He had been a resident here for forty years, an upright citizen and
good neighbor. Born in Germany, he was married there to Gertrude Klein who
preceded him in death nine years. He was a soldier in the Franco-Prussian war
and fought in some of the great battles. Here he was engaged as a carpenter,
and woodworker in the factories, a frugal and industrious worker until the
past few years he served as sexton of the Catholic cemetery. He leaves four
sons; Nicholas, Joseph and Peter of this city, and Frank of California.
He also leaves eleven grand children and one great grandchild. His remains
were laid to rest at nine o'clock Monday morning at Pioneer Rest cemetery,

chair factory started in 1856 he found employment there and
continued to work there for thirty-five years with the exception
of one year spent at his old home in Germany. From 1896 to 1910
Mr. Moseler was city treasurer which position he conducted
efficiently handling in that time millions of dollars. He lost by
death eleven of the children bor to him and buried two wives in
45 years and of late was confined to bed with an illness of nearly
two years duration.
Through all his troubles, Mr. Moseler was a cheerful philosopher
accepting his lot with patience and fortitude and emerging from
his difficulties light hearted and good natured as he ever was.

recovered from his long illness and his death came after an illness
of a day. He is survived by five children George of Howards Grove,
