Henry McElhose
Funeral services for Henry McElhose, who was born in Arlington Heights 80 years ago, will be held at the Karstens-Fairbanks funeral home Thursday afternoon at 2:00 o’clock, Rev. Milo J. Vondraeck officiating. Interment will be in Arlington Heights cemetery.
Mr. McElhose passed away Sunday in Lakeland, Florida which had been his home ten years. He was born in Arlington Heights July 20, 1866, where he spent his boyhood and married Minnie Bliemehl. Shortly afterwards he took up art metal construction and moved to Ilion, N.Y. where he was foreman of the Remington-Rand Library Bureau department at Ilion, N.Y. at the time of his retirement in 1927. His wife died that same year.
Mr. McElhose returned to Arlington for a short time, then to New York, marrying Beulah Garritt. They took up their permanent home in Lakeland, Florida in 1936.
He studied and practiced in the field of entomology, in which he had been interested since boyhood.
Besides his wife he is survived by a son, Irving, of Schenectady, N.Y. and the following brothers and sister: Charles, Edward, Laura, Arthur and James, all of Arlington Heights; three grandchildren, Martha Parks of Cleveland, Ohio, Jean and Mary Lou McElhose of Schenectady, N.Y., a stepdaughter, of Philadelphia, Penn., and a great grandchild, Robert Parks, Cleveland, Ohio.
