OBITUARY ---------------MRS. M. C. KOCH
Redwood City Democrat
February 16, 1905
Mrs. M. C. Koch, one of Redwood’s old residents, was laid to rest in Union Cemetery Tuesday afternoon. It is years since Mrs. Koch left this city and during those years many of her old friends and neighbors have been gathered in by the relentless reaper. The few who remain recall her with the tenderest of recollections, and when her body was laid away, there were mourners at her grave other than those who most keenly feel her loss. The burial took place shortly after the arrival of the 12:35 train on which the body of the deceased arrived. The pallbearers were Gevert Plump, Claus Hadler, P.P. Chamberlain, J.W. Glennan, Chris Grover, C.H. Offermann. Rev. C.C. Kirkland conducted the service at the grave.
Mrs. Koch was a native of Germany. Her husband was Frederick Koch, who during the pioneer days conducted a shoe store on Main Street. He died 30 years ago and was interred in Union Cemetery. His wife was laid beside him Tuesday. Since the death of her husband, Mrs. Koch had resided with her widowed son-in-law, W.C. Meyer at BakersField.
