MILLSTADT [IL] NEWS, 1880 - 1894
The announcement on Sunday evening of the death of Mr. John REGH [REHG], a prominent and highly respected citizen of this township, which occurred at his residence, on the St. Louis rock road, about one and o [one?] half miles north of the village, was a shock to his many friends and relations. He had been troubled with some disease for several years, but shortly before his death was healthy and strong. A few days before his death he complained of feeling a little unwell. He grew worse, and the doctor was summoned, who prescribed for him, without any result. Deceased was born in Gross Kallenbach, in Rhein Pfalz, Bavaria, Germany, November 11, 1819. Seeking to share the comforts and advantages which this country promised, he, with his wife, emigrated in 1845 to this country, locating in St. Louis, where he was employed as teamster by CHOUTEAU and VALLEO, one of the oldest firms. Being tired of the turmoil of city life, he came to St. Clair county, where he, by hard labor, gained a nice home and farm. His wife, Elizabeth REHG, nee MEYER, passed from the shadow land about two years ago. His earthly life lasted 65 years, 4 months, 10 days. He leaves two sons and one daughter. The funeral, attended by a legion of friends, took place last Monday from the residence to the Centreville Cemetery.
