Frederic W. Fiegenbaum
Geneva Cemetery
Geneva, Fillmore County, Nebraska, USA
Frederic W.
Fiegenbaum
1902 - 1903
The dates engraved on this stone would indicate that it marks the grave of the first child born to Wilhelm Edward Fiegenbaum and Maude Mary (Montgomery) Fiegenbaum, who were also buried in this cemetery (lot 408).
However, in the obituaries for both parents (in 1953 and 1955) and in the child's own published death notice, his name is reported as Frederick Robert Fiegenbaum.
This is clearly a matter requiring further research.
DIED: At 6:00 p.m. Friday 8 May 1903, Frederick Robert, only child of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Fiegenbaum, aged four months and twenty-four days. The little one had been sick but a day or two. Its death was very unexpected and was a great blow to the parents. The cause of death was not fully established. The funeral service was private and was conducted at the family residence at four o'clock Sunday afternoon by Rev. E. M. Evans. On account of the downpour of rain the interment of the body was deferred until two o'clock Monday afternoon. The Methodist choir sang at the funeral service. Friends sent many beautiful flowers.
