Additional: George W. Kuck, 66, passed to his reward at 11:15 Saturday night at his home in New Knoxville. The remains were laid to rest in the Pilger Ruhe Cemetery this afternoon. Mr. Kuck was born February 24, 1866, the son of Ernst and Sophia Vennemann Kuck. At an early age his mother died, but he had found motherly solace at the hands of now his stepmother, Mrs. Ernst Huelsmeyer, then Elizabeth Niemeyer. On April 11, 1889, he married Mary Knierm and blessed with three sons: Harry G. and Ferdinand of New Knoxville and Reinhard W. Kuck of New Bremen, who with their mother mourn the death of their father and devoted husband. Mr. Kuck was widely known and highly respected by all who knew him. As a citizen, he was active in village affairs having served as village councilman during the early years of the village's history. He probably is most remembered as a thresherman. With this occupation he identified himself as early as 1887 and for nearly half a century he pursued that occupation. In addition, he followed the profession of carpentry and water well drilling. He was raised in the faith of the First German Evangelical Reformed Church. He served as deacon and a member of the board of trustees. In addition to his widow and three sons, he leaves his step mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Huelsmeyer, New Bremen, on half-brother Theodore H. Kuck, near Botkins, one half sister Mrs. Henry Hoffman, New Bremen and the following step brother and step sisters; Mrs. Sam Engel, Anna, Benjamin Huelsmeyer, Botkins, Mrs. Henry Howe, Sidney, Mrs. Emma Brueggeman and Mrs. Henry Wiehe, New Bremen and five grandchildren and a large circle of other relatives and acquaintances.
