Obituary of Ewing STANLEY, Hardin County, Illinois Contributed for use in the USGenWeb Archives Copyright 1999 Wanda Reed Name of Deceased: Ewing STANLEY Name of Newspaper: Hardin County Independent Date of Newspaper: 18 Jul 1929 Ewing Stanley departed this life June 7th. 1929. He was at the time of his death 70 years, 10 months and 15 days old. He was married first to Sarah Vaughn; to this union were born two children, Edward Stanley of Chicago, Illinois and a daughter who preceded him to the Great Beyond. He was later married to Frances Ozee in 1896. To this union were born 9 children, 7 of which are still living. His life was one of toil and hard labor; he was an honest upright man and gained many friends wherever he went. He was stricken with dropsy last December; all was done that loving hands could do but God knew best. He professed faith in Christ some seven or eight days before his death and told us he was going home to Glory. Funeral services were conducted by Rev. W. E. Dutton and his remains were laid in the Old Dutton Cemetery where he awaits the resurrection morn, when the dead in Christ shall rise.
