He was confined to his bed since Christmas. Death was due to old age and complications. Mr. Guderjohn had been a resident of this community the past 40 years. Carl Ludwig Guderjohn was born in Germany June 27 1843 and was 83 years, 7 months and 17 days old. He was a veteran of the Franco-Prussian war. He also served a long time in the German army. He came to America and located in Alexandria in 1880 and has since lived in this community. He came here from Alexandria last October. Two daughters Mrs Fred Betterman and Mrs Carl Ziesemer who with their mother are left to mourn his loss. Funeral Services were held at the Lutheran Church at Miltona Sunday afternoon at 2:30 PM conducted by the Rev Schumacher. He was laid to rest in the Miltona Cemetery. The pall bearers were Fred Gaedke, John schulz, Carl Henning, Emil Frier, Fred Mahlke and Math Woesner. His daughter Augusta told me her father was wounded in the shoulder fighting in wars in Prussia and part of his reason for coming to USA was so his sons would not have to be soldiers in a war. He was reported to have been buried with his medals from his service in Prusssia. I have not been able to find any info about his parents or birth place.
