October 26, 1922 ***** Forrette, Forette, Forrett, Forett are several of the different spellings of the surname for this family. ****** Alton Democrat November 21, 1908 Mrs. Johanna Forette died at the home of her daughter Mrs. Nic Soheckel in Alton Thursday afternoon at two-thirty o'clock from the infirmities of age from which she had been confined to her bed for the past two and a half weeks. Deceased was Johanna Frisch and was born at Reckange, Luxemburg, Europe January 6, 1836. She came to America in 1845 and settled with her folks at St, Donatus Jackson county Iowa. She was married there to John Forette on the twentyfirst day of October 1855. For three years they made their home at Galena Illinois and for thirty years called Springbrook Iowa their home. It was here that the husband died on February 17, 1881. Ten children were born to them of whom four died in infancy and one was drowned a year ago last June in the Mississippi river. This latter catastrophe coming upon Mrs. Forette in her old age broke her heart and she had not had a well day since. During the thirty years that she called Springbrook her home she spent various short periods with her daughter in Alton. About eight and a half years ago she came here and stayed with Mrs. Scheckel for four and a half years and was well known to Alton people. In the Springbrook community she was noted as a woman who was ever ready to lend her aid in times of sickness or distress and had she served herself more and others less she might have added years to her life. The living children in the order of their ages are Mrs. Scheckel of Alton, Jacob Forette of Adrian Minnesota, Mrs. Mike Entringer of Springbrook, Will Forette of Dubuque and Mrs. William Portz of Springbrook. She leaves also twenty eight grandchildren and one great grandchild—the little son of John Soheckel of Alton. The funeral is to be held Monday at nine o'clock and will be the first from St. Marys new church. Burial will be in the parish cemetery.
