Wieting, Anton Henry (12 September 1898 - 3 June 1973)

A native of the Town of Pine Valley, Anton Henry Wieting of Neillsville, died June 3 at the age of 74. Funeral services were to be held Wednesday at 1:30 p.m. from St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church with the Rev. Norman W. Lindloff officiating. Interment was to be in the Neillsville City Cemetery.

The son of John and Ann Martha Wieting, Anton Wieting was born September 12, 1898, in the Town of Pine Valley and was educated in area schools. He farmed for a few years after completing his education. Following his marriage to the former Mamie Seidelman, which took place June 22, 1921, at Loyal, he continued to farm in the Town of Pine Valley until 1939 when the family moved to Neillsville. He worked for the Stelloh Implement Company for several years, and was then employed by the county highway department until his retirement in 1964. Mr. Wieting, who was a member of St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church, had been a resident of Memorial Home for the past five years because of failing health.

Survivors, in addition to his wife, include five children: Donald Wieting of Menomonee Falls, Arthur Wieting of Richfield, Mrs. Leona Schoenherr of Stratford and Mrs. Donald (Rosie) Kunze and Mrs. D. R. (Dorothy) Frankos, both of Neillsville. He is also survived by a sister, Mrs. Irvin (Ida) Carl of Greenwood, and by 23 grandchildren and 10 great-grandchildren.
