Fowlerville Review, 05 Dec. 1917, p.1
Good Man Laid To Rest.  David BARNARD died at his home in Conway after a short 
illness, having enjoyed unusual good health until five days before his death.  
He was born in Cohoctah, Steuben county, New York, June 6, 1833, and at the age 
of six years came with his parents to Michigan, settling in Genoa, where he 
grew to young manhood.  In 1866 he moved to Handy, residing with his brother 
Amos and assisting with him with the farm work.  He was married to Miss Clara 
GEYER September 27, 1881, and moved to Conway where he spent the balance of his 
life.  He died September 28, at the age of 84, 5 months and 22 days, being the 
last of a family of twenty-one children to be called.  Left to mourn their loss 
besides the sorrowing wife, are three children, Mrs. Alma EISELE of Iosco, 
Walter and Hazel at home, and a host of friends.  Mr. BARNARD was a man 
possessing a sterling, upright character and blessed with the kindness of 
dispositions, being always willing to sacrifice his own happiness for that of 
others.  He was very charitable, always ready to give aid to any worthy cause.  
His stirring ambition never allowed him to remain idle even to the last.  The 
funeral services were held at the Conway U. B. church Saturday, December 1.  
Rev. G. L. ADAMS officiating, and the remains were interred in the Miller 
cemetery.


Additional Comments:
David's parents were James BARNARD & Abigail Bigelow FOWLER.
