REARDAN CEMETERY AND OBITUARIES
REARDAN CEMETERY AND OBITUARIES
Submitted by Sandra Brommer

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Reardan Cemetery is located at the Southeast edge of Reardan in the NW1/4 of SE1/4 of Sec. 15 Twp 25N Range 39EWM. Also known as the Reardan IOOF Cemetery, it was dedicated in September of 1894. In the 1911 Atlas it is on page 121 and the 1960 Atlas it is listed on page 69. I grew up in Reardan & my dad had the cemetery records. I have added names, obits, and other information of the people buried there. I included all the burials, and then included the obits that I have. There are 3 burials which were not in the cemetery records (Byrd, Dittmar, and Brandenberg) but according to death records, etc, they are buried at the Reardan Cemetery. All 3 died before the big Reardan fire, so I was thinking maybe some of the cemetery records were lost in the fire.

William Schulz was born in Germany May 25, 1861, and died July 12, 1907, in
Reardan. In 1885 he came to America, locating in Minnesota. Three years later he
moved to Reardan. In 1890 he was united in marriage with Bertha Tramm, which
union was blessed with 5 children. Twenty-two years ago he was converted to God
and joined the Evangelical Church and remained faithful to the end. He
acceptably filled various offices in the church he so loved and cherished. His
marked religious experiences of the last few months will not soon be forgotten.
An unconditional surrender of himself to his Saviour was his daily purpose. He
earnestly sought and obtained the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and he had great
zeal for lost souls. He was sick only a few days when the physicians informed
him he would have to undergo an operation for appendicitis. The operation was
performed, but he succumbed to the disease 36 hours later. His suffering was
intense, but he was perfectly resigned to the will of God. He leaves a sorrowing
widow and 4 children, besides mother and other relatives and friends. Scarcely
had the Death Angel plucked the flower in full bloom from the home when he,
bending down gently broke the stem of the opening bud of scarcely two summers.
Guna, the youngest of the family, was taken two days after the father. Her body
was laid into the arms of the father, and thus together they await the blessed
resurrection morning. Besides Rev. R.D. Streyffeler, Rev. George Koch and Rev.

As was thought to be almost inevitable from the nature and extent of his
disease, Henry G. Setters died at the Sacred Heart hospital, Spokane, last
Saturday at 1:30 p.m., after undergoing an operation which left but one chance
for his life. It was found that the condition of his liver was such as to
preclude any hope of recovery whatever, and death was a welcome release. The
remains were brought back to Reardan, Oct 13th, and deposited in the hall of the
Odd Fellows lodge, deceased being a member of that order. [LCT: 10-22-1901]

Peter Tramm, 84, Dies on Visit to Germany. Brought Family Here Fifty Years Ago.
Another one of the few remaining hardy pioneers who crossed the plains half a
century or so ago in the ever westward surge of empire died last week Wednesday
in Germany where he was on a visit to his childhood home. Peter Tramm, 84, an
old-time settler in the Big Bend country, died following a paralytic stroke in
Schleswig II, Waldschloschin, Germany. He was on a year's visit to his sister in
the fatherland and was ill for about two weeks. Born in Schleswig, Nov 5, 1845,
Mr. Tramm came to America at 24 and settled in Wisconsin, where he married Miss
Mary Fredrickson. A few years later they, with their four small children, joined
the westward trek, landing in Cheney from Walla Walla after having taken a boat
from San Francisco. From Cheney, Mr. Tramm took his family by wagon to Reardan,
where he bought a homestead of 160 acres. In 1897, he retired from farming,
after having accumulated an estate of 800 acres of choice wheat land. He was a
vice president of the Reardan National Bank and was an active member of the
Masonic and Odd Fellow lodges. Mrs. Tramm died in 1925 and since that time he
lived with his daughter in Spokane, Mrs. Emma Stevenson. In 1927 he made a trip
to Germany and, again, last spring, despite his age, he made a second trip. He
is survived by two sons, P.N. Tramm of this place and H.C. Tramm of Spokane; two
daughters, Mrs. Stevenson and Mrs. William Wendlandt of Reardan; 12
grandchildren and seven great grandchildren. The body is being returned from
Germany. [Reardan Gazette: 12-26-1929]
Tramm Services to be Held This Afternoon. Rev. Groschupf of Spokane Will Conduct
Services from Emmanuel Lutheran Church. Funeral services for Peter Tramm,
Reardan country pioneer, who died in Germany Dec 15, will be held in the
Emmanuel Lutheran church this afternoon at 1:30 o'clock. The body arrived
Tuesday from Germany, having been sent over the Atlantic through the Panama
Canal up to Seattle and thence here, after a voyage of two months. Mr. Tramm 18
was born in Germany in 1845, served in the German Army and came to America in
1860. He lived for a while in Milwaukee, Wis., where he married Miss Mary
Fredrichsen. In 1881 the family came to the Reardan country via San Francisco,
Walla Walla, thence to Cheney. The old family homestead is located two miles
northeast of town and is now occupied by the family of P.N. Tramm, a son. For
nearly two score years Mr. Tramm lived the life of a retired farmer in town,
devoting his time to his extensive real estate holdings, banking interests, and
wheat lands. He had always taken an active part in the civic affairs of the
community, and for 12 years had served as a trustee on the board of education of
his district. He was a prominent member of the Odd Fellows and Masons. Since the
death of his wife in 1920, Mr. Tramm had taken two trips to the old country to
visit relatives. it was while visiting in Schleswig, Schleswig-Holstein, that he
passed away. He is survived by his two sons, Peter N. of Reardan and Henry of
Spokane; two daughters, Mrs. Emma Stevenson and Mrs. Bertha Wendlandt of Reardan.
Funeral services will be conducted by the Rev. John M. Groschupf assisted by
Rev. Arthur R.M. Kettner of the Emmanuel Lutheran church. Rev. Groschupf, of
Spokane, was pastor of the Lutheran church here a few years ago. [Reardan
