Monnich, a pioneer resident of Hooper, died in Upton, Wyo. Sunday night, according to information reaching relatives here. The body will be returned to Hooper for funeral services, probably to be held Wednesday. The funeral arrangements have not been definitively arranged, by the Eastern Star will conduct services at the grave. Mrs. Monnich was born January 11, 1863, at Herkimer, New York and as a child moved with her family to Brooklyn, Ia. They moved later to a farm near Fremont, Neb. Where she was married to John O. Monnich March 25, 1884. Mr. and Mrs. Monnich lived on the old Monnich homestead three and one half miles north of Hooper for 33 years. Following her husband's death, she lived in Norfolk for three years, and for the past two years has lived in Upton, Wyo., with her daughter, Mrs. Rolly B. Mckennan. The surviving children are: Mrs. McKennan, Mrs. Frank Fauss of Norfolk, Robert of Alberta, Canada, and Maurice of Norfolk. Two sisters, Mrs. Grace Cooper and Miss Statie Mack, and four brothers, Charles E. Mack, Morton Mack and Herbert Mack, all of Hooper and James G. Mack of Omaha, also survive. The Hooper Sentinel, November 22, 1921: BURIAL SERVICE FOR MRS. F.E. MONNICH, Hooper relatives received the sad intelligence Monday morning that Mrs. Florence E. Monnich, a former Hooper resident, had passed away on Sunday night at the home of her daughter, Mrs. R.B. McKennan, at Upton, Wyo. Heart trouble, from which she had been a sufferer for a number of years, and its accompanying complications, are attributed as the cause of her death. About two weeks ago she was stricken with a hemorrhage of the brain and from then on her decline was rapid. She was 68 years, 10 months, and 12 days of age on the day of her death November 22, 1931. Not only to relatives, but also to her many friends here was word of her demise received with much regret. Florence E. Mack was born January 11, 1863, at Herkimer, N.Y., where she grew to girlhood. In 1877 she came to Nebraska and Dodge County, locating with her grandparents on a farm three miles south of Arlington. She was married to John Monnich on March 25, 1884, and then the Monnich farm north of Hooper became her home. Mr. Monnich died December 11, 1912. The farm continued to remain her home until 1917 when she removed to town. About six years ago she went to live with a daughter at Norfolk and about three years ago went to Wyoming. Her close surviving relatives are two daughters and two sons, Mrs. R.B. McKennan of Upton, Wyo., Maurice J. Monnich and Mrs. Frank B. Fauss of Norfolk, and Robert C. Monnich of Telfordsville, Alberta, Canada, and two sisters and four brothers, Mrs. Grace Cooper, Chas. E. Mack, H.E. Mack and M.S. Mack of Hooper, Miss Statie Mack of Fremont and J.G. Mack of Omaha. Her body was brought to Hooper Wednesday afternoon and taken to the Wollmer & Warne funeral home to wait the hour of funeral services this Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, and interment in the family lot in the Hooper Cemetery. In request to the expressed desire of the deceased only services at the grave will be held, these being in charge of the local chapter of the Eastern Star Order. Florence was the first born child of Warren & Mary Crist Mack of Herkimer, New York. She was born at the height of the Civil War while her father was serving in the 152nd New York State Volunteer Infantry. Warren Mack had begun the war as 1st Lieutenant of Co. G, 34th New York State Volunteer Infantry. He was 39 years old in May 1861 and a veteran of the Mexican War. While serving near Washington, he resigned in December 1861 due to family matters. His mother, Statina Mack, had passed in April 1861 and his father Warren Mack II was 72 years old and required assistance. He returned to Herkimer and a few months later married Mary Crist Mack, who was 21. Compelled by war and with Mary at home, he enlisted in the summer of 1862 as a Private in the 152nd NYVI and served as such through the remainder of the war. Although Warren was hospitialized periodically it's not apparent that he returned home until war's end. In fact, Florence was born 1/11/1863, nine months and 2 days from the date of Warren & Mary's wedding on 4/9/1862. The 1865 census of the town of Herkimer recorded: Warren Mack age 74, born in MA; Josiah age 52, born in Herkimer a son; Warren Jr. age 43, born in Herkimer, a son, a carpenter; Sophia age 32, born in Herkimer, a daughter; Mary A., age 25, born in Herkimer, a daugher-in-law; Byron, age 5, born in Herkimer, a grand-son; Florence, 29 mo., born in Herkimer, a grand-daughter. After the death of his father, Warren Mack III sold the house and land in Herkimer. Warren and Mary moved to Iowa between the sale of the property in April 1868 and the birth of Charles Mack in Brooklyn, IA in September 1871. Warren's uncle and aunt, Guildroy & Frances Mack Littlefield were living in Brooklyn, IA at the time. There were also many Macks living nearby. By March 1878, the family was in south eastern Iowa in the town of Pittsburg, Van Buren Co. In 1881, the family made the final big move to a farm near Colon, NE. It was not an easy life and Mary Mack died in 1889. The children lived with their grandparents the Crists.
