Geo. Herkimer McMullen Dead.

Geo. H. McMullen died this morning at 11 o'clock. He recovered appreciably from
the paralytic stroke of Tuesday morning, but was too weakened by the grippe and
kidney complications to stay the hand of the great reaper. Deceased was 73 years
of age, past, and was very widely known among the older people of the county. He
is one of the old time and old school of merchants; the present firm of McMullen
and Yeomans dates back from the time of the close of the Civil war. Mr. McMullen
was born in Herkimer county, New York, which county was named after his
grandfather, the illustrious General Herkimer, deceased thus being a lineal
descendant of the Herkimer family.

Deceased was a son of David McMullen and Sarah Maria Herkimer. He was born on
Dec. 27, 1827, in the town of Danube, New York. He came to Ionia in September of
1852. On July 9, 1856 he was married to Mary Yeomans, daughter of Judge Erastus
Yeomans.

In the fall of 1860 he went into the partnership of Hackett & Harter. The firm
was afterwards Harter & McMullen. On December 16, 1865, Mrs. McMullen died. In
1866, he and Erastus Yeomans entered into partnership in the drug business which
still exists.

December 11, 1867, he was married to Mrs. Martha H. Collins.
