Wilson
102nd
When Wilson Enck turned
100, he not only received a
b ir th d a y c a rd from
President Carter, but he was
also given a huge party at
the Rothsville Fire Hall with
hundreds of guests at­tending.
Now, two years later,
William “Butt” Enck plans
to spend his 102nd birthday
quietly at home with his wife
of nearly 70 years Mollie
Hellinger Enck.
“And no presents please,”
insisted Rothsville’s oldest
resident, who keeps up his
strength by doing one to
twenty push-ups “most
everyday.” .
Enck was born in
Lexington on Sept. 16, 1877,
the son of Edwin and
Catherine Beck Enck. He
was the middle of 10
children, many of whom
lived into their eighties.
Enck attended a “little red
schoolhouse” between
Lexington and Brunnerville
until he was 14 years old. It
was there that he earned his
nickname.
“The teacher asked me to
give the definition of
‘butler,’ ” he explained. “I
didn’t know it, so he told me
to learn it for the next day. ’ ’
He didn’t. And ever since,
the nickname “Butt” has
stuck with him.
At age 14, Enck began
work as a painter and
paperhanger. He continued
th is work u n til h is
retirement at age 83. Over
the years he also spent some
time as a travelling cigar-maker.
For 28 years, Enck served
as property assessor for
Warwick Township, a now
defunct political position
that Enck was elected to
seven times.
Though he never had any
cancelled due to insufficient
enrollment will be notified
by the school.

played,” he said of his
travels as a cigarmaker. “If
they found out I played the
trombone, they would ask
me to stay.”
