Perry STILLMAN was born at Petersburg county, N.Y., December 17, 1800, died in Atchison county, Kas., near Nortonville, February 28, 1893. He was married in 1825 to Miss Asenath MAXSON; moved to Illinois in 1850; came to Kansas in 1864. Most of the time since the death of his wife in 1881, Mr. STILLMAN has made his home with his sons. During the past winter his home has been with his son Melworth. It was here that he was taken sick ten days ago, and from the beginning of his illness it was apparent that he could not recover. He was cared for by hands prompted by loving hearts. He bore his sufferings patiently till released by death. Short funeral services conducted by Rev. G. M. COTTRELL were held at the house on Wednesday. The remains were laid by those of his wife who preceded him to final rest years ago. =================================================== Contributed for use by the USGenWeb Archive Project (http://www.usgenweb.org) and by the KSGenWeb USGenWeb Archive Project USGENWEB NOTICE: These electronic pages may NOT be reproduced in any format for profit or presentation by other organization or persons.
