A lifelong resident of here, Miss Busch was born Aug 31, 1871, a daughter of August and Carolyn Steskamp Busch. She attended the Minster schools and after attaining womanhood was employed for many years in the plant of the Minster Woolen Mills, which discontinued operation here a number of years ago.
She leaves the following sisters: Mrs. Josephine Ortman, Minster; Mrs. Anna Braun, Dayton; Mrs. Howard Sage, Flint, Mich.; Mrs. Louis Hafner, Minster; and Miss Agnes Busch, with whom she resided. She was preceded in death by two brothers and two sisters.
