Paul J. Rubbert, World War Vet, Dies In South

Mrs. Mary Goerss, 244 Bryant street today received word of the death of her son, Paul John Rubbert, 35 years old, at his home in Gaffney, S.C. Born in North Tonawanda, lived her practically all his life. He was a World War veteran. As such he took part in a number of important engagements in France. In one of these he was gassed.

Rubbert was a graduate of the North Tonawanda high school. He studied two years in the Concordia Lutheran Seminary at Springfield, Ill., but ill health prevented him from finishing his course. In the hope of recovering his health he became a member of Company K, 174th regiment. He served with the company on the Mexican border and went overseas with the local unit of the 174th regiment, having fully regained his health. He distinguished himself in service and was rewarded by his country.

His health became impaired again from gassing and other exposure in the trenches overseas and he went to Gaffney shortly after returning home, hoping to overcome his ailment.

He is survived by a wife, Nellie D.; a daughter, Mary Elizabeth; a son, John William; his mother, two brothers, Carl R. Rubbert, Rochester, N.Y., and Arthur W. Rubbert, North Tonawanda, and three sisters, the Misses Iona V. and Margaret E. Goerss and Mrs. Reynold Janke, all of the Tonawandas.
