Mrs. Grimjes, nee Janssen, was born in Ostfriesland, Germany, on December 13, 1840, where she was educated and grew to womanhood. She left Germany in 1889 and come to Freeport, Ill., where she was married the same year to Isaac Grimjes, in Freeport while living in Illinois. Mr. Grimjes worked for a railroad company. They continued to make their home in Freeport until 1884, when they moved to a farm in Stanton township, where Mr. Grimjes died on January 16, 1895. Six children were born to this union, a daughter, Mrs. Henry Schrooten preceding her parents in death. Those who survive are; Mrs. W. J. Kress, Mrs. Charles Danne, Mayor Henry Grimjes, all of this city, and John Grimjes of Merrill, and Simon Grimjes of Plymouth township. Deceased had made LeMars her home for the last 24 years, spending the last few years of her life with her daughter. Besides the children, she leaves a brother, Albert Janssen of Hartley, Iowa, Mrs. Schuttler of Ocheydan and a sister living in Germany, nine grandchildren, and 11 great-grandchildren also survive. Mrs. Grimjes was always in good health until five years ago and Saturday she caught a severe cold, which hastened her death. During the war time, Mrs. Grimjes received an award for her knitting, presented to her by the United States government. She was quite a charity worker and always offered her services where she could. She was a frequent visitor at the hospitals where she comforted the sick and injured, and her pleasing personality with all classes of people made her a popular woman. Her death will be mourned by everyone that knew her.
