He was the fourth child born in Wiscons in after his parents migrated from Germany. There is no record of his bir th in Brown County records.He died Saturday, 16 February 1935, age almost 82, of _________, at St. Vi ncent Hospital, Green Bay, Brown County. According to his obituary, funer al services were conducted Monday, 19 February, in St. Benedict's Cathol ic Church, Suamico, Brown County, which he had helped organize about 191 8. A solemn high mass was sung by the Reverend M. Marmurowicz, Pastor, ass isted by a Norbertine priest as deacon and Frater Alphonsus Diederich, h is son, a sub-deacon. He is buried in St. Benedict's Cemetery at Suamic o. Antone Diederich's death certificate tells when and where he was born a nd died. See Brown County death records, v. 36, p. 551.He married Mary Klipstein (or Klipstine) 16 January 1880 at ______________ ___ Church, at DePere, Brown County. Reverend _________________ preside d. Witnesses were ______________ and _____________. The marriage is record ed in the marriage register of the church.
      Mary Klipstein was born 13 August 1861 at Milwaukee, Milwaukee County, Wis consin, the daughter of Martin H_____ and Frederica ______ (Schubing) Klip stein. Her birth is recorded in ___________ County birth records, v. __ _, p. ___.
      She died 25 September 1939, age 78, of diabetes, at Suamico. The funeral w as held _____________________, at _________________ Church, __________, a nd she is buried in St. Benedict's Cemetery there.
      Her death certificate says she was born 13 September 1861 and died 25 Sept ember 1939, age 78 years, 1 month, and 10 days. See Brown County death rec ords, v. 40, p. 921. Obviously, either the birth date or age at death is i ncorrect. According to the Reverend A. F. Diederich, her son, she was bo rn 13 August 1861. Also, according to her death certificate, her mother 's name was "Mary Rodatz", but her father's death certificate says his wif e's name was "Frederica Schubing".
      The marriage of Anthony Dideriks (sic) and Mary Klipstein is recorded in B rown County marriage records, v. 9, p. 104. His parents' names are giv en as "Johann Dideriks" and "Gerdrudis Tonon", and her parents' names a re given as "Martin Klipstein" and "Frederica Klipstein". Witnesses were M artin Dideriks and Bernardina Klipstein. The Liber Matrimonii et Defunctor um (marriage and death book) of St. Mary Catholic Church at DePere contai ns this entry for the year 1880 on p. 242 which has been translated from t he Latin:
      Sixteenth January 1880 marriage was contracted by Antone Diedericks, age 2 6, son of John Diedericks and Gertrude Anna, born at DePere, and Maria Kli pstein, daughter of Martin Klipstein and Frederica Klipsten, Bernardina Kl ipstein and I were present.
      Martin Klipstein was a farmer. He evidently migrated to the United Stat es about 1860 because his daughter, Bertha, was born in Germany in 1859 a nd his daughter, Mary, in Milwaukee in 1861. In the


      The Klipstein and Diederich farms were across the road (now County Trunk E E) from one another in Town of Lawrence. In 1968, the Klipstein farm was s till held in the Klipstein family.
      When Antone's father, John, died 18 August 1874, he apparently did not lea ve a will. Thus his property passed into the hands of his nine children. H is widow received a dower interest in the homestead.
      Michael Diederich was killed 20 November 1876 by a train while walki ng on the railroad tracks in West DePere. Since he was unmarried and witho ut children, the eight surviving children inherited his share of their fat her's estate.
      On 1 October 1878, Antone Diederich and Peter Karst bought the widow's dow er interests for $1,333.34. See Brown County Deed 31-609. That same day, A ntone's sister "Gertrude Gates and Philip Gates, her husband" sold their o ne-eighth share in the estate to Antone Diederich and Peter Karst for $63. 26. See Brown County Deed 31-608.
      On 5 March 1879, "Joseph Diedrich and Anna Diedrich, his wife" sold the ir share to Anton Deidrich (sic) and Peter Karst for $1. See Brown Coun ty Deed 40-343.
      On 14 July 1879, "John Deidrich and Cecilia Deidrich, his wife" sold the ir share to Anton Deidrich (sic) and Peter Karst for $150. See Brown Coun ty Deed 39-95.
      The reason for the substantial difference in the amount of money each rece ived is unknown. Perhaps there was some other consideration involved whi ch is not mentioned in the deeds.
      On 10 March 1880, "Pete Karst and Katherine Karst, his wife, of the To wn of Lawrence" conveyed the interest previously conveyed by Anna Diederi ch to Anton Diederich for $125. See Brown County Deed 39-208.
      Then on 1 April 1880, "Antoon Diederich and Mary Diederich, his wife, Math ias Diederich (unmarried), Theresia Pennings (nee Diederich) and John Penn ings, her husband," sold an undivided six-eighths interest in the homeste ad and a 74¾-acre tract east of DePere to Peter, John, and Antoon Keyze rs for $900. See Brown County Deed 42-294. "Mary Diederich of Fillmore Cou nty, Nebraska" sold her one-eighth interest in these properties to the Key zers on 12 April 1880 for $150. See Brown County Deed 42-311. Pete Didri ch (sic) of Miles City, Custer County, Montana Territory" sold his one-eig hth interest to the Keyzers on 19 June 1881 for $464.89. See Brown Coun ty Deed 42-459.
      Also on 1 April 1880, "Antoon Diederich & Mary Diederich, his wife, Theres ia Pennings (Nee Diederich), John Pennings, her husband, and Mary Diederic h, Unmarried," sold their six-eighths interest in a 51-acre tract to the ir brother, Mathias Diederich of DePere, for $800. See Brown County Deed 4 2-318.
      Antone, his wife, and their infant daughter probably moved soon thereaft er to Stanton Precinct, Fillmore County, Nebraska, were his brothers, Jose ph and John, and sister, Mary Ann, had already moved. In the June 1880 Cen sus of Nebraska, p. 520B, he is recorded as "Antonio Diederich, farmer". H is homestead was next to his brother Joseph's and one farm removed from h is brother, John, with whom his sister, Mary Ann, was living. But evident ly he did not stay long, for on 9 July 1881, "Mathias Diedrich of Brown Co unty, Wisconsin," sold the six-eighths interest in the 51-acre tract ba ck to his brother, "Antoon Deidrich of the same county", for $800. See Bro wn County Deed 43-556. On 26 August 1882, 'Antoon Deidrich and Mary Deidri ch, his wife, of Brown County, Wisconsin," sold their interest in the tra ct to William Michaelis for $1,100. See Brown County Deed 47-239.
      During the ensuing years, Antone Diederich evidently lived in various par ts of Brown County, for the birth records of his children include Nicolle t, West DePere, Ashwaubenon, and West DePere. His son, Ralph Leo Diederic h, was born at Rudolph, Wood County, Wisconsin, in 1902. Antone's obitua ry says he also "farmed in the Dakotas", but this may have been before h is marriage. He settled at Suamico about 1915, according to his obituary.
