Bio

Married Marian Lanspa on January 15, 1918 at St. Francis Catholic Church, Center Township, Butler County, Nebr. _____________________ Butler County Press (David City, Nebr.), October 31, 1918, p. 1, col. 1 ANOTHER INFLUENZA VICTIM. A David City Man, J. T. Reisdorff, Died on Wednesday. On Wednesday morning, at 7:30 o'clock, Joseph T. Reisdorff, of David City, succumbed to influenza-pneumonia, he being the second David City man with whom the disease has proved fatal. He was taken ill with influenza on Wednesday, Oct. 23, contracting the disease from his wife, who had been ill for a week before. Pneumonia developed on Monday of this week and Mr. Reisdorff's condition became critical at once. His death was not due to lack of care, for there has been a trained nurse in attendance at the Reisdorff home since the home went into quarantine. On account of the nature of the disease and there being a ban on public funerals, there wil be short services at the grave in St. Mary's Catholic cemetery tomorrow (Friday) morning at 9 o'clock. A brother, Nicholas Reisdorff, came from Lincoln Wednesday evening and a sister, Miss Anna Reisdorff, came from Fullerton this (Thursday) morning. Joseph T. Reisdorff was 35 years of age. He was born March 28, 1883, on a farm two miles north of David City. His father, John Reisdorff, died 24 years ago, on February 23, 1894 [ sic ]. His mother, Mrs. Mary Reisdorff, departed this life on April 3, 1916 [ sic ]. Four brothers and four sisters survive Mr. Reisdorff.

Reisdorff of David City, Peter Reisdorff, who recently left Camp Lee, Va., for France, Mrs. Susie Birkel and Mrs. Mary Hilger, living near David City, Miss Anna Reisdorff of Fullerton and Mrs. Margaret Drozda of Raymond, Wash.
