 Presbyterian banner. (Pittsburgh, Pa.) November 18, 1863
Died near Altoona, Pa., November 5th, after a short illness, Mr. Lewis Gwin, aged 76
years, 8 months, and 25 days;  born in Franklin County, Pa., and removed with his
parents, when about five years of age, to Huntingdon (now Blair) County, where the
remainder of his life was spent. He united with the church of Hollidaysburg, about
twenty-three years ago, and remained in its communion until dismissed to unite with
the church of Altoona at its organization. In his old age he was nearly blind, his
hearing was also much impaired.. But for this loss he was greatly compensated. He
could repeat a good part of the scriptures from memory, and in this he took much
delight; had the blessedness of seeing them all, two sons and two daughters, members
of the Church of Christ...
