  • Notes 
    • Died of blood poisoning following a threshing accident. He was one of the first to be buried in Railroad Cemetery. (Elm Grove Twp.)

      Walter Ropp: “Danny Garber, whose death by blood poisoning followed a threshing accident, should come in about here. My old Uncle Christ Ropp, who remembered everything that ever happened around there, said that his grave was the first one in the Railroad Cemetery. John Schrock, six months older and much like him said, "I know your Uncle 'Crysthel' had an awful good memory but there's one time when he was mistaken. It was the third one." And now that they are both gone these twenty years, who is going to settle it!”
