1820	On Thursday morning our vicinty was greatly shocked to hear of the sudden death of well known resident Wencel Tuma, Sr. aged 73. The deceased has been in poor health for the past two years and the last few days felt greatly relieved. The evening before his death he spent in cheer and apparent good health wth his wife and family. After retiring he peacefully fell asleep never to awaken. Mr. Tuma was the last of our pioneer settlers, coming from Bohemia with his parents when eighteen years of age and settling on a farm where he resided up to the time of his death. About sixteen years ago he retired, transferring his farm to his son. He was a kind and generous father and neighbor, and a highly respected citizen. That he was held in high esteem by all who know him was shown by the large cortege that followed his remains to their last reasting place. A wife, one daughter, Mrs. John Marek, and two sons Wencel of Gibson and John of this vicinity, survive to mourn his loss, also a large circle of relatives and and grandchildren. His remains were laid at rest on Saturday afteroon in St. Wencel's Catholic cemetery. Rev. Cipin performing the last sad rites. May he rest in piece. Jos. Kohout, Jr., of Brillion, Dr. C.J.

1841	Past Fades With Razing of Brewery Manitowoc-A part of the old, old past is fast disappearing from the scene of Manitowoc these days with the razing of the old brewery plant at the corner of Ninth and Marshall streets. Demolition work is being done by the Madison Moving and Wrecking Co. of Madison and Oshkosh. Part of the old structure is remains of the first brewery at Manitowoc owned by Charles Hottelmann who operated the initial plant on that site. The old brewery plant is estimated to be well over 100 years old. It wasn't long until the Kunz family came along from Germany to provide Manitowoc and the area with fine beer. Gottfried and H. George Kunz came from near Wertonburg (sic), Germany, where the art of brewing ran through family veins. H. George Kunz bought out the operation in 1865 and operated the plant until his death in 1872. Working with H.G. were Louis Kunz, his half-brother and John Schreihart, who had also been schooled, by experience, in the beer-making trade. After H.G. died Louis Kunz went to work for Gottfried Kunz. Bought out Brewery Louis Kunz and John Schreihart later conducted the large brewery on Washington Street here. Louis Kunz and B. Bleser teamed up and bought out the brewery under the name of Kunz, Bleser and Co., Brewers in 1885 and brewed the finest of Dortmuder, Hoffbrau and Extra Pale Beer. The partnership ran up to about 1918. And then the country went dry. Rahr, Schreihart, and Kunz formed the Manitowoc Brewers Co., and bottled near beer and soda. The name was changed again-this time to Manitowoc Products Co.- and the firm went into ice cream, cheese and butter business at the Washington Street plant. Moved to Sheboygan With the legal return of beer in 1933, Kingsbury Brewery came into being. With Louis Kunz president of the company up to his death in 1936, the brewery brewed and bottled Kingsbury Pale and other fine beers. The brewery here was closed about 10 or 12 years ago and operations were moved to the Sheboygan plant. Erwin C. Kunz, son of Louis Kunz, remained on the board of directors of Kingsbury Brewing Co., up to several years ago. The G. Heilman Brewing Co. of LaCrosse merged with Kingsbury Breweries in 1862. Razing operations were started several weeks ago. Herald-Times-Reporter Wed, Apr 24, 1963 ·Page 14	KUNZ, James Louis (I7557)

1849	Paul Freitag While the question of nationality is one that is rapidly becoming of minor importance in this country, owing to the liberal laws and equal opportunity offered to anyone of honest intent and industrious habit, yet the uniformity with with those of Germany birth or descent make good, as the saying is, in the United States, has for long been a noticeable fact, universally recognized by sociologists and students of racial distinctions. "Blood will tell" is a saying that has generally been used in connection with the idea that aristocratic birth endows the subject with superior qualities and, as a consequence, has not been accepted favorably in this republican country. Applied, however, to nations, regardless of doubt ut that there are certain broad mental, physical and moral characteristics which must be recognized as establishing well marked lines between people of different racial extraction. Paul Freitag, of Max, possessed at birth the undoubted advantage of good, old German parentage, and his own life history still further compels the belief that after all there is a great deal in the force of heredity in shaping our individual fortunes in life's battles. Paul Freitag was born in Nicollet, Minn., on July 16, 1873. His father, Albert Freitag, was a native of Germany and came to this country in time to participate in the Civil war, and is still living on a farm near Max. His mother was also of German birth but died in Minnesota before the family moved to North Dakota. The grand parents came to Minnesota in 1860. Paul's education was acquired in the common schools of New Ulm, Minn., the German city of that state, and his boyhood and early manhood were spent on a farm in the vicinity of that city. In 1894, he moved to Clarksville, Iowa, where he remained until 1901, in which year he took up a homestead near the present town of Max in North Dakota. In Iowa he was engaged in the mercantile business as agent for the Plano Harvester Company as traveling salesman. At Max he engaged in the general merchandise business under the name of Freitag & Freitag, and has already built up a lucrative and substantial connection. In the fall of 1898, he married Miss Lenora Wallath, of Clarksville, Iowa, and two children have been born to them, Max, age 10 years, after whom the town of Max was named, and Howard, age 2 years. Mr. Freitag is a member of the Masonic fraternity and is a Lutheran by religion. He is the owner of 320 acres near Max, which is yearly increasing in value. The postoffice is located in the store building of the firm, which was the first to engage in the general merchandise business in Max, and Mr. Freitag was the first postmaster when the postofice was on his homestead. He still holds the office. Mr. Freitag is personally an affable and popular man, an exemplary citizen, and a business man of shrewdness and ability.	FREITAG, Paul E. (I2836)

On Thursday morning our vicinty was greatly shocked to hear of the sudden death of well known resident Wencel Tuma, Sr. aged 73. The deceased has been in poor health for the past two years and the last few days felt greatly relieved. The evening before his death he spent in cheer and apparent good health wth his wife and family. After retiring he peacefully fell asleep never to awaken.

Mr. Tuma was the last of our pioneer settlers, coming from Bohemia with his parents when eighteen years of age and settling on a farm where he resided up to the time of his death.

About sixteen years ago he retired, transferring his farm to his son. He was a kind and generous father and neighbor, and a highly respected citizen. That he was held in high esteem by all who know him was shown by the large cortege that followed his remains to their last reasting place.

A wife, one daughter, Mrs. John Marek, and two sons Wencel of Gibson and John of this vicinity, survive to mourn his loss, also a large circle of relatives and and grandchildren.

His remains were laid at rest on Saturday afteroon in St. Wencel's Catholic cemetery. Rev. Cipin performing the last sad rites. May he rest in piece.

Jos. Kohout, Jr., of Brillion, Dr. C.J. Skwor of Algoma and Adolph Skwor of Bessmer, Mich., were here to attend the funeral of their uncle, Mr. Wencel Tuma.

Past Fades With Razing of Brewery

Manitowoc-A part of the old, old past is fast disappearing from the scene of Manitowoc these days with the razing of the old brewery plant at the corner of Ninth and Marshall streets. Demolition work is being done by the Madison Moving and Wrecking Co. of Madison and Oshkosh.

Part of the old structure is remains of the first brewery at Manitowoc owned by Charles Hottelmann who operated the initial plant on that site. The old brewery plant is estimated to be well over 100 years old.

It wasn't long until the Kunz family came along from Germany to provide Manitowoc and the area with fine beer. Gottfried and H. George Kunz came from near Wertonburg (sic), Germany, where the art of brewing ran through family veins. H. George Kunz bought out the operation in 1865 and operated the plant until his death in 1872. Working with H.G. were Louis Kunz, his half-brother and John Schreihart, who had also been schooled, by experience, in the beer-making trade. After H.G. died Louis Kunz went to work for Gottfried Kunz.

Bought out Brewery

Louis Kunz and John Schreihart later conducted the large brewery on Washington Street here.

Louis Kunz and B. Bleser teamed up and bought out the brewery under the name of Kunz, Bleser and Co., Brewers in 1885 and brewed the finest of Dortmuder, Hoffbrau and Extra Pale Beer. The partnership ran up to about 1918.

And then the country went dry. Rahr, Schreihart, and Kunz formed the Manitowoc Brewers Co., and bottled near beer and soda. The name was changed again-this time to Manitowoc Products Co.- and the firm went into ice cream, cheese and butter business at the Washington Street plant.

Moved to Sheboygan

With the legal return of beer in 1933, Kingsbury Brewery came into being. With Louis Kunz president of the company up to his death in 1936, the brewery brewed and bottled Kingsbury Pale and other fine beers. The brewery here was closed about 10 or 12 years ago and operations were moved to the Sheboygan plant.

Erwin C. Kunz, son of Louis Kunz, remained on the board of directors of Kingsbury Brewing Co., up to several years ago.

The G. Heilman Brewing Co. of LaCrosse merged with Kingsbury Breweries in 1862. Razing operations were started several weeks ago.

Paul Freitag

While the question of nationality is one that is rapidly becoming of minor importance in this country, owing to the liberal laws and equal opportunity offered to anyone of honest intent and industrious habit, yet the uniformity with with those of Germany birth or descent make good, as the saying is, in the United States, has for long been a noticeable fact, universally recognized by sociologists and students of racial distinctions. "Blood will tell" is a saying that has generally been used in connection with the idea that aristocratic birth endows the subject with superior qualities and, as a consequence, has not been accepted favorably in this republican country. Applied, however, to nations, regardless of doubt ut that there are certain broad mental, physical and moral characteristics which must be recognized as establishing well marked lines between people of different racial extraction. Paul Freitag, of Max, possessed at birth the undoubted advantage of good, old German parentage, and his own life history still further compels the belief that after all there is a great deal in the force of heredity in shaping our individual fortunes in life's battles.

Paul Freitag was born in Nicollet, Minn., on July 16, 1873. His father, Albert Freitag, was a native of Germany and came to this country in time to participate in the Civil war, and is still living on a farm near Max. His mother was also of German birth but died in Minnesota before the family moved to North Dakota. The grand parents came to Minnesota in 1860.

Paul's education was acquired in the common schools of New Ulm, Minn., the German city of that state, and his boyhood and early manhood were spent on a farm in the vicinity of that city. In 1894, he moved to Clarksville, Iowa, where he remained until 1901, in which year he took up a homestead near the present town of Max in North Dakota. In Iowa he was engaged in the mercantile business as agent for the Plano Harvester Company as traveling salesman. At Max he engaged in the general merchandise business under the name of Freitag & Freitag, and has already built up a lucrative and substantial connection.

In the fall of 1898, he married Miss Lenora Wallath, of Clarksville, Iowa, and two children have been born to them, Max, age 10 years, after whom the town of Max was named, and Howard, age 2 years.

Mr. Freitag is a member of the Masonic fraternity and is a Lutheran by religion.

He is the owner of 320 acres near Max, which is yearly increasing in value. The postoffice is located in the store building of the firm, which was the first to engage in the general merchandise business in Max, and Mr. Freitag was the first postmaster when the postofice was on his homestead. He still holds the office.

Mr. Freitag is personally an affable and popular man, an exemplary citizen, and a business man of shrewdness and ability.
