W. Gott died very suddenly at his home in Easton on Saturday, Dec. 7, 1901, of organic heart disease, at the age of 73 years. Deceased had been ill a few days, but had so far recovered as to be considered entirely out of danger. He ate supper with his family, and at 8:30 o’clock expired in his chair, without a moment’s warning. Stephen Wells Gott was born in Wooster, Otsego Co., N.Y., June 13, 1829. At the age of four years his parents moved to LaGrange, Loraine Co., Ohio, where he grew to manhood. In 1850 he married Helen Herrick, who survives him. By this union four children were born: Frank, Fred and George Gott and Mrs. W. S. Yeomans, all of whom are living. In 1855 he came to Michigan and located on the farm which has ever since been his home. By the death of Mr. Gott, the family loses a kind and loving husband and father, and the community an honest, upright and respected citizen.
