He was up town Friday apparently as well as usual and death is thought to have been caused by an attack of heart disease. Funeral services were held at 10 a.m. Monday at the St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Anthon with solemn requiem high mass sung by his cousin, Rev. Father J.P. McGuire of Ute, assisted by Rev. Father Cooke of Marcus, deacon and Rev. Father D.K. Hurley, sub-deacon. Burial was made in Mt. St. Joseph Cemetery, Anthon, under direction of R. Hudgel Funeral Service. Jeffery T. Curtin, old settler and pioneer resident of this community and Woodbury County, was born December 28, 1856, at Great Barrington, Massachusetts, and came to Dubuque with his parents in 1857. It was just two years later the family moved to Woodbury County and settled in the Cork Hill neighborhood. The trip to Woodbury County was made by the family in a covered wagon drawn by oxen and it required three weeks time. They were forced to blaze their own trail, building bridges over creeks with brush and logs, and they were often mired down in the sloughs. In 1861 the family returned to Dubuque to escape the Spirit Lake Indian massacre. Later in 1863 the family returned to Woodbury County which at that time was a vast prairie with deer, elk, wild turkey in abundance. On February 19, 1889, at Danbury, he married Miss Catherine Coyne and their home was started in Grant township where Mr. Curtin had previously purchased a farm and moved from the Cork Hill neighborhood. In 1920 Mr. and Mrs. Curtin and family moved to Anthon where they have since resided and the farm is now operated by a son, Jeffrey Curtin, Jr. The Curtins had ten children, eight living with two, an infant and Lawrence, 18, having preceded their father. Survivors include the widow, three daughters, Sister Mary Isabel of Clinton, Iowa; Mrs. Ray Weathers of Anthon, and Mrs. John Brady of Marcus; five sons, John, Raphael, Jeffrey, Dan and Matt of Anthon, and one brother, Cornelius Curtin of Anthon, plus six grandchildren.
