He was born on one of the farms which he owned ami which was a part of his home at the time of his death. Left fatherless at the age of 3. he went to live with his grandfather. who died two years later: then with his mother, who had remarried. until he was 12 years of age At that time he went to live with Grandfather Wingers, remaining with him for five years; then from one place to another, under a guardian, until he became of age; and still without a settled home until his marriage two years later. He has been a lifelong resident of Van Wert. Ohio. He was married to Catherine Clifton, March 28. 1867. To this union were born seven children, four sons three daughters. One sou and two daughters preceded both father and mother to heaven. On May 27. 1907. his companion departed, leaving him alone. He never left the farm, however, ’ but maintained his home there, his son Frank ami fam ily living with him. He was converted and united with the United Brethren church in Wren during the winter of 1892 under the labors of Rev. J. Freeman. Shortly after, he was elected trustee and shared the labot; and responsibility of building the church house which has ever sime been his church and in which the funeral services in honor of him were held. He remained true to his ejiureh and to his God to the day of his departure, a striking example of business suet ess. sterling manhood, good neighborliness, respected fatherhood. lionorc.il old age. and dependable Christian character. He leaves to mourn his departure three sons, one daughter, one brother, one sister, two half-brothers,four half-sisters, five grandehuildren. and a host of other relatives and friends.
