Philomon, George, Jane, Lucy and Sylvia. In 1849 he came to Iowa and settled 
on a farm in Monmouth township. In 1863 he sold the farm and moved to Mill 
Rock, where he resided at the time of his death. Several years before his 
death he united with the New Church. He had been in failing health for a long 
time and on Saturday was taken suddenly worse and lingered only two days. He 
leaves an aged wife, a son and daughter, twelve grandchildren and eleven great-
