He had been suffering for some time with chronic diarrhoea, contracted in the army years ago, and had become much weakened. He refused a doctor but consented to take some medicine his wife prepared and when it gave out he asked her to go up town and get some more. When she had changed her dress to go she found him dead. Although he seems not to have apprehended immediate death, still months ago he wisely put all his business in shape for final leave. By hard work and good management he had accumulated an estate worth $85,000, mostly in land -- 560 acres in several farms. He was born in Germany, left an orphan at the age of four years, came to America when he was 19, settled in Livingston county, Ill., served in the union army during the civil war, and 38 years ago settled on a farm just north of Imogene which has been the family home until a year ago last spring he moved in Shenandoah, putting his married children on the farms. He leaves a wife and four children, and four are dead. Among the latter was William who, a few years ago, died from an accidental gunshot. Mr. Dickersbaugh richly provided for the widow and her two children. He was a good, old fashioned German, brusk in manner but honest and kindly. The living children are Caroline (Mrs. Frank Priest), John, at home, Fred on a farm near Imogene, and Anna (now Mrs. Ballain) on the home farm. John had gone to St. Louis and so was not at home at the death of his father, but hurried home in time for the funeral. The funeral was held at the Reformed church in Imogene Sunday afternoon at 2;30, conducted by Rev. Josat, who also held a short service at the home before starting for Imogene. The pall bearers were his former neighbors, but all live in Shenandoah now -- Charles Schick, Edgar Foust, J. J. Haley, W. H. H. Wax, Mike Kammerer, C. B. Nelson. Anton Dickersbaugh's parents were Catholics, but he never acknowledged allegiance to any church. The children greatly revered their father and selected for him a marble sarcophagus. *************************** Shenandoah Sentinel-Post -- Aug 16, 1910 page 1 column 5 Sudden Death of Aged** The death of old Mr. Dickersbach came very suddenly on Friday morning at 10:30 after a very brief illness, in fact he was not in bed and would not let the family send for a doctor and he passed away very quickly. His funeral was held on Sunday at Imogene conducted by Rev. Josat and his body laid to rest in the Imogene cemetery. Anton Dickersbaugh, was born in Germany February 12, 1837 and died at the age of 74 years and six months. He came to America when a young man and was married in Illinois to Miss Frederica Boelling who with their four living children, survives him. They came to Iowa in 1874 and settled near Imogene where they lived until a year and a half ago when they moved to Shenandoah and settled on their new home on Broad street, Six children were born to them but two died. Those living and at the funeral were Mrs. Frank Priest of this city, Mrs. Chas. Ballain north of Imogene on the home place and Fred and John near Imogene. Mr. and Mrs. Dickersbach were universally loved and respected and the friends sympathize deeply with her in the loss of her aged companion. Those from away who attended the funeral were Mr. A. G. S.
