Schuh, two miles northeast of Anthon. He had been failing steadily for some years and had gradually lost his eyesight to such an extent that he was practically blind the last six years. Born in Austria-Hungary December 11, 1841, John Schuh emigrated to the United States in 1860, settling in Michigan. After a residence of 1 1/2 years in that state he moved to Lamont, Illinois, near Chicago. There he married Mary Schleis in 1863. To them five children were born, four of whom survive, Adam of Mapleton, Mrs. Mary Forch and John J. Schuh of Anthon and George of Pierson. A daughter, Mrs. Anna Burow, preceded her father in death. The Schuh family lived in Illinois twenty years before moving to Iowa in 1883. After residing in Crawford County for three years they settled in Woodbury County, making their home on the farm where J.J. Schuh now lives. This farm had been purchased by the Schuhs when they came to this state, and it was on the same farm that this pioneer's death occurred. In 1904 Mr. and Mrs. Schuh moved to Anthon where his wife passed away June 13, 1917. Mr. Schuh lived in town until six years ago when he went back to the farm he loved so much to make his home with his son. Since 1886 he had been affilliated with St. Joseph's Catholic Church, attending mass whenever it was physically possible for him to do so. Funeral services will be conducted tomorrow, November 10, 1932, in St. Joseph's Church with Rev. Fr. D.K. Hurley officiating. Burial will be in Mt. St. Joseph Cemetery.
