FAHR, Alban, Beeville Bee, Friday, 19 Jun 1903:

Mr. Alban FAHR, a popular German citizen, died at an early hour Tuesday morning at 
his home in the eastern part of the city. His demise was quite unexpected to his many 
friends as he had been indisposed only a few days. The deceased was a native of Saxony 
and was in the fifty-sixth year of his age. In 1872 he emigrated from Germany and settled 
in Frelbury, Colorado county where he married and lived for many years. 

His residence in Beeville dates from 1898. He was a man of quiet and unobtrusive disposition 
and generally liked by all that knew him. The funeral occurred on Wednesday under the 
direction of the Sons of Herman, of which he was an earnest and faithful member, the religious 
being conducted by Rev. Selfridge of the Presbyterian Church. A wife and ten children survive 
him.
