Funeral services will be held Friday morning at 9:30 am in St. Michael's church in Whittemore, Iowa. Father Edward Fandel of Sanborn, nephew the deceased, will be celebrant of the solemn requiem high mass; Fr. Robert Ormsby of Belmond deacon, and Wather William Veit, subdeacon. The pall bearers will be six grandsons, Louis and Lester Schumacher, Cletus Elbert, Durwood Walters, Jerry Elbert and Orval Fuschen. Peter Elbert was born July 20, 1859 at Metamora, Illinois, where he grew to manhood. He was united in marriage with Katherine Kerker on January 10, 1882, at Lourdes, Illinois. They established their home on a farm near Saunemin, Illinois. In 1895 they came to Iowa, locating on a farm two miles north of Whittemore. One year later they moved to their family home where they resided continuously. Mrs. Elbert died in 1938, after which Mr. Elbert lived with his son, Earl, who occupied the home farm. Always active in community affairs, Mr. Elbert served as trustee of Lotts Creek township over 40 years, and as school director of district No. 5, center school for 35 years continuously. He also served as director of the Whittemore Elevator company for a number of years, and in the same capacity with the Farmers Creamery company. A good roads advocate, he and the other members of the board of trustees put forth much effort in the early twenties to place every farm home in the township on a graveled road. With the launching of this campaign, Lotts Creek was one of the first townships in Kossuth county to have a complete criss-cross pattern of graveled roads from township funds. Mr. Elbert is survived by twelve children. They are: Mrs. Leo Walters, Mrs. Richard Vaughn, Mrs. Rose Schumacher, George, Frank, Andrew and Earl, all of Whittemore, Mrs. H J. Fuschen of West Bend, Otto and Charles of Los Angeles, Leo of Corwith, and Louis J. of Pocahontas, Three brothers, J.V. and William, of Whittemore, and Andrew of Metamora, Illinois, and three sisters, Mrs. Mary Faber, Kankakee, Illinois, Katie Elbert and Mrs Lena Kohl of Mason City, also survive. There are 25 grandchildren and 15 great grand children.
