Lake Odessa Wave Times, 19 Apr 1918

Jeremiah Hansbarger was born in Shenandoah county, Virginia, May 24, 1852, and
departed this life April 6, 1918, aged 65 years, 10 months and 12 days.  At the
age of 18 he came west to Ohio.  In 1873 he was united in marriage to Samantha
Price, to whom were born four sons, Harley, William, Plennie, and Arthur Joseph,
and a daughter Emma Ellen who died in infancy.  In 1876 he was converted and
united with the Primitive Baptist church in Seneca county, Ohio, and up to the
time of his death his faith in God was unshaken.

In 1882, he with his family came to Odessa township and in 1896 moved to the
village of Lake Odessa, of which village he was president three years.  While
living here his wife died on January 27, 1912.  He was again married to Ada
Mumaw, August 15, 1912.  To this union was born one child, Nelson David.

He was the oldest of five children, the others survive him and are Mrs. Ellen
Estep, Aaron and James, all in Ohio and Fred Hansbarger of Virginia.  These with
his wife, five sons, fourteen grand-children, and a host of friends remain to
mourn their loss.

The funeral was held at the Methodist church Wednesday.  Rev. I. H. Mourer
preached and a quartette composed of Mrs. C.A. Lapo, Mrs. A.J. Dann, Leon T.
Gilson and Geo. E. Kart, accompanied by Mrs. S.W. Dann, sang.  Interment was in
Lakeside cemetery.

The business places were closed during the time of the funeral and the large
attendance showed the respect in which the deceased was held.
