He is in the Two Rivers Pioneers' Rest cemetery. His surname could be
Jakel also as many times J and Y were interchangeable because of how
the person pronounced it.

age. He is said to have come to this country about thirty years ago,
locating in Wisconsin and fifteen years ago came to this city. Nothing
much is known about him as he was uncommunicative. The funeral will be
