Ionia Standard – Friday, 20 May 1904

Francis Steady, a veteran of the civil war, died on Saturday, at age of 84.  
He served three years in the 140th N. Y. infantry, a zouave regiment recruited

Patterson of Grand Rapids; besides a step-son, Thomas Griffin, of Buffalo, N. 
Y.  The funeral for Frances Steady took place at Catholic Church Tuesday, and 
was well attended.  The old soldiers turned out with over 30 in the ranks, 
under charge of Commander J. H. Laden.  The bearers were Ab. Guernsey, Justus 
Beadle, R. Carpenter, L. Strunk, C. S. Cook, and John Eckman, under direction 
of Ed. Shattuck as officer of the day.  Interment was in Oakhill Cemetery.
