William Peter Thomsen was born in Boone County, Iowa, October 30, 1897. In early infancy he received the sacrament of Holy Baptism in the Lutheran Church at Bouton, Ia.
In 1910 the Thomsen family moved to Madison County, Iowa. Here William was confirmed in the faith of the Evangelical Lutheran Church, becoming a member of Trinity Church, in Jefferson Township. Of this church he remained a member until his death.
On the 15th day of February, 1928 he was united in the bonds of holy wedlock to Miss Eva McKibben of Earlham. This happy union was suddenly terminated last Thursday, April 19th, when Mr. Thomsen was fatally injured in a runaway while plowing. He passed away the same day shortly after reaching the hospital at Des Moines, his age being 30 years, 5 months, 19 days.
Besides his sorrowing wife, Mr. Thomsen leaves to mourn his untimely death his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Thomsen, four sisters, Mrs. Dora Jurgenson, Mrs. Mary Jensen, Mrs. Emma Compton and Mrs. Frieda Schafer, and other relatives. He was a quiet, unassuming, hard-working young man, a dutiful son and a loving husband, highly esteemed by all who knew him; and his sad death is mourned not only by the relatives, but also by his fellow church members, as well as the entire community.
Funeral services, conducted by the Rev. C. Lilie, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church, were held at the Presbyterian Church at Earlham, and the body was laid to rest in Earlham cemetery.
