Surnames: Deitz Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ZEC.2ACE/1142 Message Board Post: >From the Rice Lake Chronotype, May 14, 1924 JOHN DEITZ DIES LATE THURSDAY. HAD BEEN IN ILL HEALTH AT MILWAUKEE FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. Family is With Him at Hospital When the End Comes Peacefully. The remains of John Deitz, who died in Milwaukee Thursday, were brought here Sunday morning, accompanied by the wife only and a Milwaukee newspaper man, J. J. Colby of the Sentinel. Undertaker G. L. Lyle took the remains in charge, which were taken to the Presbyterian church at 2 p.m. where funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. M. Hawley, who delivered an impressive sermon. R. C. Peck sang two solos. The pallbearers were old neighbors and friends. The remains were laid in their last resting place in Meadow Creek cemetery in the family plot where lie three of his children: Harry who died in 1897 at the age of 12, Leanna who died in 1901 at the age of 8, and an infant that died in 1911. Stanley died at the age of 9 in 1908 and is buried at the Cameron dam farm. The parents, Mr. & Mrs. John Deitz, Sr., are buried in Meadow Creek cemetery, as well as his brother, William W. Deitz, whose grave adjoins to the west. Henry Deitz of this city is the only surviving brother. John F. Deitz, aged 63 years, died at a Milwaukee hospital late Thursday afternoon following an illness of several weeks' duration. With him when the end came were his wife, sons Clarence, Leslie and John Jr., and daughters Helen and Myra. For several days preceding death Mr. Deitz had been acting irrational and a guardian was appointed to keep his property from falling into other hands, as he and his wife had been estranged for some time. John Deitz was a visitor in Rice Lake about six weeks ago and at that time appeared to be in good health. An interesting visit was enjoyed by the Chronotype editor, who had not seen Deitz since the visit made to his home before being captured, in the interests of the Milwaukee Sentinel. Mr. Deitz seemed to enjoy very much going over his past experiences at that time, but there was a tone of bitterness toward the lumber companies, whom he seemed to consider his nemesis up to the time of his death.The long fight against the lumber companies both in and out of court that finally resulted in his conviction on a murder charge and sentence to state prison had embittered him. When pardoned several years ago by Gov. Blaine he was declared in poor health, but apparently had recovered much of his former strength until recently he became seriously ill and tried in vain to cure himself by fasting for a time. The purchase of the Dietz homestead in 1904 on which was located a portion of the Cameron dam was followed by spectacular battles with officers of the law and posses for six years, until October 8, 1910, he surrendered after his home had been riddled by bullets. Oscar Harp was killed in this battle, the officers claiming Deitz was responsibile, while he said a bullet from the posse caused it. This year he claimed to have evidence that Harp was never shot, but was living in the west. John Deitz came to Rice Lake in 1870 as a young boy with his parents from Winneconne, Wis., the trip being made overland. Here he married Miss Hattie Young and lived on a farm west of Rice Lake, later moving to Sawyer country where they lived for a time on the Brunet river and later locating on the farm at Cameron dam. For a time before the trial Mr. and Mrs. Deitz lived at the Gustafson home west of this city. His brother, William Deitz, was for two terms sheriff of Barron county and for years an insurance man here. One daughter, Mrs. Herman Voight, lives on a farm a mile west of Rice Lake. Mr. Deitz perhaps gained more notoriety than any other man who has ever lived in upper Wisconsin, and many newspaper writers made him appear as a heroic figure fighting the big corporations, this also being the theme of the moving pictures off which the family made big money while he was in prison. Even New York dailies carried lengthy editorials on Deitz. The marvel of anyone who visited the Deitz home during the time of the battles is that none of the family was killed by the hundreds of bullets that went through the home.

Query for ARNOLD family I am trying to find information on the SAM ARNOLD family and I know they were living in Barron County as they were listed on the 1900 Census that I found. Sam was married to twice and the first time to REBECCA HOOVER and they had three children: 1. MINNIE ARNOLD born February 1889 and she married CHRISTIAN FOX 2. SAMUEL FREEMAN ARNOLD born July 31, 1890 and he married JULIA AMDAHL or AMDALL 3. MAUDE EVELYN ARNOLD and she was born July 29, 1892 in Barron County. After Rebecca's death Sam married GRACE BATES and I believe they had a daughter. Would any one be able to help me find information on this family? Did the daughters stay in Barron County and the son? Did the Father stay in Barron County? What happened to this family? Thank you for your help Joanne Rohrscheib
