Ionia Daily Sentinel, 27 Dec 1880

Joseph L. Freeman died at his residence in Lyons, at 1:35 this morning, in his 
77th year.  Mr. Freeman was well known here.  He was one of the pioneers of 
Ionia county, having settled on Long Plain, in the township of Ronald, 
somewhere about 40 years ago.  In 1865, he moved to this city, but a few years 
later changed his place of residence to Lyons, where he remained until his 
death.  He was twice married.  His second wife survives him.  By the first 
marriage he was the father of Hon. F. S. Freeman, of this place, Wm. H. 
Freeman, of Lyons, and Frederick J. Freeman, of Marcelona.  One daughter by the 
second marriage also survives him.  She is now a young lady of 17.  His last 
illness was of about four weeks’ duration, and he was a great sufferer.  During 
his long residence in the county he had made a very wide acquaintance, and was 
generally esteemed.  The funeral services will be from his late residence in 
Lyons on Thursday morning, at 10 o’clock, Rev. J. Pierson officiating.
