Iowa, USA

Mrs Elizabeth Kunkel of Haverhill died at her home Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock after an extended illness due to old age, following a gradual failing in health that has been apparent during a period of six years. The last illness dates back two months, and in that time Mrs Kunkel's death has been considered as only a matter of time.

Mrs Kunkel was the widow of Killien Kunkel who died at Haverhill in 1901. She was a native of Germany and was born November 4, 1831. She came to this country in the early 50's settling with her father's family at Peru, Indiana. She was married at that place in 1854 and with her husband came to this city four years later. In 1872 Mr. and Mrs. Kunkel moved to Haverhill, which has been the family home ever since.

Six children survive Mrs Kunkel in the person of Martin, Anton and Mary Louisa Kunkel of Haverhill; Edward B Kunkel of Grant county, Wisconsin; Christopher Kunkel of Nobles county, Minnesota and Joseph J Kunkel of Stearns county, Minnesota.

The funeral will be held Monday morning at 9 o'clock from St Mary's Catholic church at Haverhill, Rev Father Joseph Schlueter officiating. Interment will follow in the Haverhill cemetery.
