OBITUARY ---------------ANDREW JUMEL
Redwood City Democrat
Dec 28, 1899
Died as Christmas dawned
On Christmas Eve, while bells pealed forth a welcome to the happiest season of the year and the rapturous laughter of the little ones of every household heralded the dawn of the day of joy and glad tidings, one home in Redwood was darkened in sorrow and one more of Redwood City’s most estimable citizens had passed into the rest that knows no awaking.
Monday evening Andrew Jumel died at his home on Fourth Street after a short illness. Six months ago his good wife, with whom he had spent 36 years of happy wedded life, proceeded him to the grave, and the days that intervened before the summons came to the aged husband, bowed with the weight of years, were those of yearning to join her who had gone before.
Andrew Jumel was born in France 80 years ago. He came to this country in 1857 and hewed out his home in the mountains twenty-two years ago. He moved his family to this city and some years later gave up active labor to spend his declining years here. Deceased leaves a daughter, Mrs. Lottie Wilcox and little granddaughter.
The funeral took place Tuesday at 2 o’clock, services being conducted at St. Peters Episcopal Church services by Rev. B.G. Lee and Rev J.O. Lincoln and many old friends attended and followed the body to Union Cemetery, where the interment took place.
