with his parents he came westward and for two years lived in the state of Wisconsin, after which he came to the state of illinois and settled in York township on the place now known as the Jake Green farm.In the year 1856 on the second of April he was united in marriage to Miss Dorcas Gaar. To this union were born eleven children, six sons and five daughters all living, except one son, who passed on to the great beyond at the age of
eighteen. He with his family moved onto the farm known as the Dunshee place under the Bluffs better known as the Porter farm.About forty-five years ago he moved to Thomson at which place he has resided until his death. In the year 1889 he united with the Church of Christ of which he was a most faithful and consistent member always ready to do his part in the
uplifting of mankind.The surviving relatives are the faithful wife and companion, ten children, twenty-nine grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren, one brother and sister, and friends, a large company of relatives and neighbors who mourn his departure.
The funeral service was held Sunday afternoon by the pastor Rev. Burnett assisted by Rev. G. E. sheerer of Fulton, Ill., a former pastor of the Church of Christ, with interment in the Dunshee cemetery. Thus once again Thomson loses an
influential man, a staunch christian, a benediction to the community, and a blessing.
