Pioneer Physician Claimed by Death
Blue Hill Leader:
The death of Dr. Casper John Wegmann on Tuesday afternoon was a tragic affair, coming entirely unsuspected, and in the sick room of a patient. Dr. Wegmann had been called to the F.C. Kreuger home, where a daughter, of Mr Krueger was seriously ill. At about four o'clock he had called Dr. C.R. Laird to assist him, and about ten or fifteen minutes later while working with the patient, with out a word fell to the floor. Examination proved that life was extinct and death had been instantaneous. Dr Wegmann has suffered with heart trouble for a number of years, and was in poor health for a time this spring, but the past few months had enjoyed good health and claimed he was feeling unusually well.
He was born in Germany on March 22, 1849, and came to America at the age of four years with his parents, who located at Sebald, Iowa, where he grew to be a young man. On January 7th, 1869, he was married to Miss Barbara Meyer, and in September 20, 1879 came to Blue Hill to make their home.
His wife, Barbara Wegmann, passed away November 2, 1922, after patient years in an invalid's chair. Two sons passed away in infancy, and ten children survive him. They are: Four in California, John of Avaion, George of San Francisco, Albert of San Janinto, and Otto of Burbank; Mrs E.F. McCord of Chicago, Carl of Kansas City; Dr. Will of Bladen, Mrs Carl Bangert of Lawrence, and Mrs H.C. Schmidt and Miss Rose Wegmann of Blue Hill, also two sisters, Mrs J.
