Lowell Journal, 3 Dec 1890

Died Sunday morning Nov. 30, 1890, John F. Cilley, aged 69 years, 5 mos.  The
funeral was held Tuesday, Rev. J. T. Husted officiating.  John F. Cilley was
born in Danver, N. H. in June 1821 and in early childhood went with his parents
to Vermont where in 1842 was married to Sarah Chamberlain who died in 1846,
leaving him a two months old daughter – now Mrs. H. C. Palmer.  

In 1850 he was married to Almira Tucker – who survives him – at Henniker, N. H.
and in 1855 came to Michigan and settled on the homestead in So. Boston, where
he lived until about 5 years ago when he came to this village – and which farm
he still owned at the time of his death.  He was respected and esteemed by all
with whom he came in contact.  In his political beliefs he was an earnest and
consistent Republican and had been a Justice of the Peace in Boston 16
consecutive years.  

He leaves a wife and seven children—five sons and two daughters—to mourn his
loss.  He was well known throughout this section and his family have the
sincerest sympathy of a host of friends in their bereavement.
