The second death in the Helbach family within a period of fourweeks occurred on Thursday afternoon at 12:45 o'clock when Joseph Helbach, Sr., pioneer resident of Buena Vista, who moved to 123 McCulloch street, this city, last September, passed away at St. Michael's hospital. The direct cause of his death was an abscess which formed on his neck. He had been in poor health for the past six weeks and underwent two operations, the latter one on Friday, Feb. 22. His condition was quite favorable for the following week, when the abscess developed.
Mr. Helbach was 69 years of age last October 7 and a native of the town of Almond. In later years he bought a farm in Buena Vista and lived there continuously until last fall. Some 35 years ago he married Miss Bertha Levsen and they became parents of seven sons and a daughter, George of Scandinavia, Reuben of Amherst, Oscar of Wautoma, Joseph and Daniel of Almond and Fred, Ruth and Frank of this city.
The deceased's brothers and sisters are Mrs. Louis G. Zimmer and Peter Helbach of Minneapolis, George Helbach of Almond and Miss Rose Helbach of Scandinavia. Another brother, John H. Helbach, died on Feb. 14.
The remains will be taken from McCulloch street home to St. Martin's church home to St. Martin's church, Almond, on Monday morning, where services will be held at 10 a.m., followed by interment in the parish cemetery. (8 March 1929, SPDJ)
