A REMARKABLE Man

From "The Rome Courier"

M.A. Wimpee of this county will be sixty years old the 20th of June next. He 
has been married twice, had 16 children by his first wife, 11 boys and 5 
girls and 7 boys and 7 girls by his last wife, 30 in all, the oldest being 
42 years old and the youngest at the breast. He lost 7 sons in the late war. 
Mr. Wimpee is a hard working man, a good citizen, and is doing a good part 
by all his children. All are loved and respected by those who know them. The 
old gentleman is a stout and able-bodied man, in good health, and is hard a  
lightwood knot, and bids fair to live many years longer. The Rome Courier
