Frank Willihnganz obituary

  This photo was published in the Herald. I do not have a date. I also do not have a program to clean up the hatching that is on it. Perhaps you do, or know someone who can. My grandmother, Ella Minnie Outzen Willihnganz was born in this house on August 30, 1880 during the time her father, Hans Jacob Outzen was the sexton. Hans and his wife Gunder Christina Iverson are buried in Springdale.

The caption of the photo reads: "The above photo, taken about the turn of the century, shows Mr. and Mrs. William Terkelsen, deceased, parents of Hans Terkelsen of Twenty-fifth avenue, North, standing in front of their home hear the old entrance to Springdale cemetery. Mr. Terkelsen was at the time serving as sexton at the cemetery. The little white pup performing for the camera was mascot of Company L of Clinton and was brought back by Hans from Cuba where he served in the Spanish-American war. The picture was loaned to the Herald by Mrs. Marie Bachelder, 416 Seventh avenue South."
