Bauer, Catharine (5 July 1863 - 10 Jan. 1943)

A requiem high mass was sung at St. Bernard’s Catholic church at 9:00 o’clock, Wednesday morning, when last rites were held for Mrs. Catharine Bauer, 79, who died Sunday morning at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Cecelia Chariton. The Rev. Francis Brockman, who conducted the services here, also said the prayers at the Catholic cemetery at Loyal, where internment was made.

Six grandsons acted as pallbearers: Sgt. Raymond Chariton, Ft. Bragg, N.C.; Bernard Chariton, Abbotsford; Anthony Charition, St. Paul; Joseph Chariton, Albert Primer and Paul Perlock, Marshfield.

The floral offerings were carried by six grand daughters: Miss Hazel Hebert, Chili; Miss Alvina Sook, Fond du Lac; Miss Rosalie Chariton, Abbotsford; two daughters of Mr. and Mrs. George Bauer, Wisconsin Rapids; and Mrs. Paul Perlock, Marshfield.

Catherine Jansen was born July 5, 1863, in Germany and when about two years old, came to America with her parents.

On July 8, 1882, she was united in marriage to Peter Bauer in St. John’s Catholic church, Marshfield. They made their home in Hewit until 1898 when they moved to Greenwood where they lived until 1906 when they purchased a farm in the Town of Beaver.

After Mr. Bauer’s death, on Feb. 9, 1915, Mrs. Bauer remained with the family on the farm until 1931 after which she made her home with her married children. The past four years she spent in Abbotsford with her daughter, Mrs. Cecelia Chariton.

Six years ago, Mrs. Bauer suffered a stroke and for the past two years was a bed patient. As a result of another stroke, death came at 9:30 Sunday morning.

She is survived by 12 children, all of whom attended the funeral. There are 51 grand children and 35 great grand children. Her husband and two children, James and Agnes, preceded her in death.

The surviving children are: Mrs. John (Anna) Schuld, Marshfield; George Bauer, Wisconsin Rapids; Nick Bauer, Riplinger; William Bauer, Colby; Mrs. Albert (Eva) Roadt, Stratford; Mrs. Cecelia Chariton, Abbotsford; Mrs. Lester (Christina) Sook, Fond du Lac; Mrs. Elliot (Kate) Herbert, Chili; Mrs. Ed (Angeline) Du Vall, Marshfield; Peter Bauer, Milwauke; Martin Bauer, Fond du Lac; and Joseph Bauer, St. Paul.

Two brothers, John Jansen of Wausau, and Nick Jansen of Rhinelander; and two sisters, Mrs. William Foelkner, of Aberdeen, Wash.; and Mrs. Agnes Bauer, of Hewitt, also survive.

Other relatives who attended the funeral included the one brother, John Jansen, Wausau; Mrs. Clarence Keller, Mrs. William Ebsen and Mrs. William Derichs, all of Wisconsin Rapids.
