Biography:
MORITZ F. GRUNERT, who during a long period of years was engaged in agricultural pursuits in Ellington township, was one of his section's most highly esteemed citizens, and in his death, which occurred in January, 1907, Outagamie county lost a good citizen and a public official of the highest integrity. Mr. Grunert was a son of Johann Grunert, who came to this country from Germany with his wife and family during the '50s, and Moritz F. Grunert emigrated to the United States in 1850, when he was twenty years of age. He first settled in New York, from whence he went to Chicago, working by the day for a short time. In 1854 he came to Ellington township and bought land near the present village of Stephensville. In 1862 he was married to Cynthia J. Heath, born in New York State, daughter of Horatio Heath, who was one of the very first settlers of Stephensville, being connected with the lumber mill. The day following his marriage Mr. Grunert joined his company, Company D, of the Twenty-first Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry, he having enlisted for service in the Civil War, and after three years of brave and meritorious service received his honorable discharge and returned to the farm. His health having been seriously impaired by the hardships of army life, Mr. Grunert at this time sold his property and moved to the village of Stephensville, where he remained for several years, then buying a property just east of the village, where he was engaged in farming up to the time of his death. For fifteen years he held the office of township clerk and he was also a member of the township board for many years, bringing to his official positions those traits of character that make for honest and efficient public service. He was a member of the German Lutheran Church, while his wife, who died in 1905, held membership with the Methodist denomination. They had a family of seven children, all of whom are living: Estella, Carrie, Horatio, Anna, Norman, Sarah and Chauncey.

Moritz married Heath, Cynthia 23 Aug 1862. Cynthia (daughter of Heath, Horatio and Unknown, UnknownF) was born 11 Aug 1845, Rossie, St. Lawrence, New York, USA; died 16 Feb 1905, Ellington, Outagamie, Wisconsin, USA; was buried , Ellington Union Cemetery, Stephensville, Wisconsin, USA.

Notes:

Letter:
Taken from letters Herman sent home to his young wife Mary Mollet,letters were kept by their daughter Mrs. David Wedgewood:
Herman Grunert married his wife, Mary, on Thanksgiving Day, 1861 while she was a resident of the town of Ellington,Stephensville,Wisconsin. They later made their home in Oconto, where Mr. Grunert enlisted in the Civil War, serving with Company D, 9th Wisconsin Infantry. He saw action in the vicinity of Little Rock,Ark.,where he spent much of the time while he was in service. It was at this time that he wrote a number of letters to his youthful bride, all of which have been kept by their daughter,Mrs. David Wedgewood.
The letters,though they carried little of the terrible conflict in which her husband was engaged, were deeply solicitous about the welfare of his wife and children. One entry, dated March 12, 1866, told of the disaster that had befallen the 3rd WisconsinCavalry, when they were surprised by the , Bushwackers, many being cut down, including the captain and a number of his men. He also wrote of the trials of army life, of the very infrequent visits of the paymaster, who didn't come around more then once every six months.

A second letter, written April 17,1865,began with the happy news that the war would soon be over and that again he would see his dear wife and children, one of them that had just learned to walk, and from whom he had been seperated almost a year. Richmond had been taken and General Lee had surrendered and every where the Union forces were pushing forward at a mad pace from one triumph to another. Following the surrender,Mr. Grunert wrote; that the celabration was noiser then the actual battles in some cases there being a continuous thunder of cannon, while riotous celbrators took possessions of towns and villages.

Lincoln's Assassination
And then he told of the news of Lincoln's assassination, while entire encampments went into mourning for thirty days and soldiers and officers were very dispondant over the loss of their beloved president. But his death but the entire union army into a fever heat of battle lust to avenge his death, which they attributed to Southern intrigue.
All the letter were highly romantic, telling of his courtship, of the high esteem in which he held his wife and of his anxiety for her welfare.
When he returned from the service they made their home on School Street in the city of Onconto. Retranscribed by his Great-grand nephew...LHG

Horatio had a special love for his Daisy and was never the same after her death as a result of a child birth problem.Her death came a short time after my father,Moritz Horitz.Horatio didn't raise Moritz as that was left to Estelle Emily,whom did a splended job until the brown bottle caught up with dear ole dad. Although he wasn't the only one with that problem.
The family became much closer as the years went on as they all lived closer to each other in the ruel area in Monico,Wi.
Grandpa Grunert died doing what he loved to do and that was to be working in the woods and his trusted dog by his side. Fact is it was his trusted dog that was the one to go get help from Delbert,although it was too late.
