Read More	Herman Martinmaas, well known Hand County pioneer died Saturday in the Faulkton hospital, having suffered a stroke at his home the previous Wednesday. He had reached the age of 86 and had spent nearly 58 years in Hand County. Born in Westphalia in Germany October 30, 1857 Mr. Martinmaas came to the United States at the age of 27 and worked on a farm for a time in Nebraska, coming from there to Spring Township in Hand County in 1884 and homesteaded, later moving to the site of his present home in Ontario Township because of the big springs to be found there. He was married in 1897 to Anna Bucher, a member of the prominent Bucher family of Hand County, who survives him. Their four sons, Henry, Werner, Arnold and Walter are all established in the neighborhood of their early home southwest of Orient. Last rites were held at St. Liborious Church at Polo, Father Hyland officiating. Internment was made in the Polo cemetery with the four sons acting as pall-bearers. In an early-day wilderness, Herman Martinmaas by his thrift and perseverance over the years built a fine farm and ranch. His home was a thing of pride to him and its hospitable doors were always open. As a man of affairs he was noted for his balance, good judgment and sound thinking. He was a courteous gentleman. Hand County has lost one of its able pioneer builders.
