Mr. Vandenberg was a native of Holland, born in North Brabant in that country, May 7, 1845. His parents were Albert and Johanna Vandenberg, and he was the seventh and youngest son of a family of nine children. The king of Holland had issued a proclamation that all seventh sons would be educated in the highest branches of learning by him, and asked his parents to sign the necessary papers in order that their son might be honored. This they refused to do, as they were planning to come to America and did not want to leave the child behind. When three years of age Mr. Vandenburg came with his parents to America and the family settled at Hollandstown, Wis. Mr. Vandenburg lived there 43 years. He was twice married. His first wife was Miss Johanna Mary Eiting, who died a few years after their marriage. On Jan. 29, 1891, he was united in marriage to Miss Petronella Bruecher and in March of that year they came to David City, residing here ever since. Thirteen years ago Mr. Vandenburg was appointed a guard at the Nebraska state penitentiary at Lincoln, serving in that capacity for five years. Surviving Mr. Vandenberg are his widow and five daughters, Misses Gertrude, Mary, Aloysia, Elizabeth and Theresa. One daughter, Anna, the oldest of the family, died in infancy. He also leaves two brothers, Martin, living at Menominee, Mich., and Nicholas, whose home is in Hollandstown, Wis. Since childhood Mr. Vandenberg had been a good and faithful member of the Catholic church. He was a man of kindly disposition and made friends wherever he went. He was a member of the Tiben Council Knights of Columbus and of Esther Court Tribe of Ben Hur. Funeral services were held at 9 o'clock this (Thursday) morning in St. Mary's church. Rev. Father Boll was assisted by Rev. William Bruecker, of Schleiningerville, Wis., brother of Mrs. Vandenberg. The pallbearers were members of the Knights of Columbus.
