Mrs. Christian Baller Died at Richmond
Body Returned for Funeral Thursday at Christian Apostolic Church
Mrs. Christian Baller, wife of a well known farmer, residing just east of the Christian Apostolic Church, north of Vera Cruz, passed away this morning at the Easthaven Sanitarium at Richmond, where she had been for the last three years. Her physical condition has not been good of late and her relatives were more or less prepared for her demise.
Herman Thoma, Mr. Baller and Jacob Tonner, a brother-in-law of the decedent, motored to Richmond this afternoon and will return with the body this evening. The body will be taken to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Tonner, near the Christian Apostolic Church. The funeral will be held on Thursday with services at the house at 12 o'clock and at the church at 1 p.m. The interment will be in the cemetery adjoining the church.
Mrs. Baller was born in Monroe County, Ohio, on August 26, 1860, and was the daughter of Benedict and Anna (Hubacher) Bamugartner. She came to Indiana with her parents when she was ten years of age and has been a resident of this community ever since. She was married to Mr. Baller in 1882.
Her husband survives her. They have two children. Other near relatives are a sister and two brothers, namely: Elizabeth, wife of Jacob Tonner; Joseph Baumgartner, residing east of Bluffton; and Isaac Baumgartner, of Lathham, Kansas. One other sister, Mrs. Margaret Strohm, wife of Dan Strohm, has preceded her sister in death.
