  www.findagrave.com: http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=97866273 Funeral Services Held Here Saturday - For William Kunz Funeral services were held at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Trinity Lutheran Church for William Kunz, 78, pioneer area resident who died at his home here Wednesday afternoon following an illness of about five months. The Rev. Gordon A. Selbo officiated and burial was made in the Java cemetery. Kunz was born December 28, 1878, at Yankton, SD. When he was a small boy he, his sister and his widowed mother sold their home in Yankton and together with five families traveled by wagon and ox team to Sutley, SD. They were able to follow wagon trails as far as Aberdeen, then a village made up of a depot and two stores, but from the Hub City west they broke their own trail. Kunz used to recall the hardships suffered by the pioneers and of the blizzards in those early years. Crop failures, shortages of food and fuel and other hardships were common to these early settlers. November 10, 1901, he married Katharina Hirning at Sutley where they lived until 1910. He and his family moved to Java in 1910 where Kunz operated the Java Equity Exchange for 32 years. While living in Java he served as mayor for two years, served on the city council and school board and was active in community and church affairs. In 1945 he retired and he and his wife moved to Mobridge, SD where they have made their home since that time. November 10, 1951, Mr. and Mrs. Kunz observed their golden wedding anniversary at an open house given by their children at the home of their daughter, Mrs. A. W. Spiry. Survivors are his wife, two daughters, Mrs. A. W. (Erna) Spiry, and Mrs. H. T. (Nettie) Hauck, both of Mobridge, SD; four sons, Edward of Watertown, SD, Wilfred of Bismarck, ND, Ervin of Aberdeen, SD, and Howard of Hopkins, MN. He is survived by 11 grandchildren, one great grandchild and one sister, Mrs. Carl Koenig of Carson, ND. One child and one grandchild preceded him in death. Kunz was a member of Trinity Lutheran church of Mobridge. Miles Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements. The Mobridge Tribune Mobridge, South Dakota April 1957
