  • Notes 
    • Henry and Dora Gaiser owned and operated a grocery store in Neustadt, Ontario. This store was on Mill Street, as you enter Neustadt. As the children arrived they ate up all the profits so Henry switched to selling shoes.

      Henry had a cobble by the name of Gottleib working in the store. There was a worn spot where he sat for many years. He would take a coffee break and go across the street to the hotel and fill up the honey pail for the Gaiser children for ten cents.

      There was a shortage of electricity in the shoe store, having only one light bulb in the ceiling. At night they would pull the light bulb up to the second floor for lighting at night for the family.

      There was a underground stream at the rear of the building in which the Gaiser's stored all the perishables.

      Henry had the gallstone operation on the kitchen table on the second floor of the living quarters of the building. They placed the table in front of the bedroom window so he could have light.

    Died:
    • Hanover Post May 5th 1921
      Mr. Henry Gaiser who has been ill for a number of weeks, underwent an operation on
      Sunday morning for gallstones. The operation was performed by Drs. W. and E. Brown
      and specialist from Toronto. We hope Mr. Gaiser will improve quickly and favorably and
      that he will once more enjoy the blessing of good health.

      Hanover Post May 12 1921
      Death called a well known and much esteemed business man of Neustadt yesterday
      morning in the person of Mr. Henry Gaiser in his 53rd year. He had been a shoe and
      boot merchant in that village for many years. Deceased had been ailing for a couple of
      years, and underwent an operation a few days ago for gallstones, but in his weakened
      condition the shock was too much for him. Deceased is survived by his wife and ten children
      and his mother and two sisters, to whom the sympathy of the community will be extended.
      The funeral will take place from his late residence on Saturday afternoon at 1:30 o,clock
      for the Lutheran cemetery, Neustadt.
