Franklin Dysinger was born in Royalton, Niagara Co., N.Y., August 26, 1853, and departed this life for a better world, February 20, 1923, after years of helplessness and great suffering. He came to Memphis, Mich., in September, 1854, with his parents, Daniel and Cordelia Dysinger who came to their farm home in Riley township. He was a industrious boy and man. November 6, 1878 he was united in marriage to Ida Belle Nye, Memphis. In May, 1878 they united with the M.E. church. When they started housekeeping they erected a family alter which they continued up to within a few weeks of his death. In his religious life he was devout and faithful, and painstaking in the discharge of his duties. He held the office of recording steward for about 30 years, was a trustee continuously for years, a class leader, S.S. superintendent and teacher, and largely through his labor and generosity the present church buildings were reared. He joined the Masonic fraternity in 1876 at 23 years of age, holding many offices. He had been a Gleaner since 1897. Mr. Dysinger was a dutiful son, a true friend and a kind and loving husband.
