July 25, 1964 Alton Democrat; October 26, 1901 "Joseph Jonas of Alton died at the insane asylum at Clarinda Tuesday night having been there about a year. John Thelen, an uncle of the deceased, went to Clarinda Wednesday and returned with the remains on Thursday. The funeral was held from St. Mary's church on Thursday. Burial was in the church cemetery. On February 9, 1900 Mr. Jonas's wife died of troubles arising from child birth, leaving seven children besides the babe in arms. The blow and responsibility of caring for eight small children unbalanced Mr. Jonas's mind. He was taken first to a private asylum at Oshkosh, Wisconsin but growing worse was taken to Clarinda. He has since then gradually declined. The case is peculiarly and the bereaved children have the sympathy of the community. Mr. Jonas was born in Eifel, Germany forty nine years ago. His parents are still living there."
