departed this life a few months after marriage. Several years later he was 
married to Miss Martha Wheeler and to this union were born two children, Geo. 
Jefferson and Julia Marie. While the two children were still in their infancy 
the mother was called to her heavenly home, leaving Mr. Rich again alone.

Some years later he came to Fruitland where he has since resided. After coming 
to Idaho he was united in marriage to Miss Nora Skaggs and to them were born 
two children, Lola Edith and Fanny. He leaves besides his children, four
