Mr. Jacob Bucheit, Sr., who has been sick for a few days only, passed away
last evening at his residence, Mill Street, Mishawaka. He was born in
Bavaria, Germany, in 1811, and came to this country over 50 years, settling
first in Buffalo, where he remained a few years, then removed to this
country. He bought a farm in Penn Township a few miles south of Mishawaka,
and lived there until last fall when he bought the Morse property in town,
and moved there a few months ago. His wife died about ten years ago and his
two daughters Frances and Lizzie, lived at home and kept house for him. He
leaves besides, a son, Jacob Bucheit, Jr., who remains on the old farm;
Joseph and Lewis Bucheit, of Dakota; F. H. Bucheit, Chicago; Mrs. John
Ernst, Mishawaka and Mrs. Andy Wolf, of Clay Township.
