231. Frances Grobbel
Per her death certificate, she died at 10 PM on Sept. 18, 1913, from wounds caused by an accident involving a circular saw, which apparently happened on Sept. 17th. Oral history says the saw was used to cut lumber and it caught her clothing and pulled her into the rotating blade, causing a deep cut along the entire side of her torso.
Emigrated to Detroit prior to 1881 (1881 Detroit Directory shows him living in the boarding house of his uncle, Joseph Linto, at 480 Gratiot Ave., Detroit.).
In Nov. 1897, the baptism record of his son indicates that they livedat the corner of Macomb and Beaubien Streets in Detroit. Other knownresidences were on River Rd. and at St. Aubin and Hurlburt (which is where his widow continued to make her home).
Franz was a Grocer from 1895 to 1900, first in business with his wife's half-brother as "Frank Linto & Bert Rinke Grocers" and later just as "Frank Linto Groceries". From 1900 until his death, Frank ran a saloon.
