Death of Dr. Creery 

Doctor Morgan R. B. Creery died at the residence of his son-in-law and daughter – Mr. and Mrs. Milton 
Isenberg in the West Ward – on Friday last, aged 72 years.

Dr. Creery was born in Indiana County not far from Cherrytree and was a son of Joseph and Eleanor R. Banks 
Creery and in youth learned the trade of a wagon maker. He subsequently studied medicine and finally 
became a dentist in which profession he attained a high degree of proficiency.  About forty-nine years ago he 
married Elizabeth Isenberg and went to live at Cherrytree, Indiana County, removing to Ebensburg in 1879, 
since which time he had been an honored resident of this place.  His wife died September 10, 1892.

The children of this union are Minerva Sexton of Johnsonburg, Elk County; Mrs. Eleanor M. Sexton of Cresson; 
Jessie, now Mrs. Milton Isenberg, and Dr. Clark L. Creery of Ebensburg; Estella of Baltimore, Md.; and Mabel 
Clair of Chicago, now ill of heart trouble in that city.

Dr. Creery was a faithful member of the Presbyterian Church and on Monday afternoon last after services in 
the church of that denomination in this place, conducted by Rev. Samuel G. Craig, assisted by Revs. J. Twyson 
Jones of the Congregational Church and Kruger of the First Christian Church, interment was made in Lloyd's 
cemetery by the side of his wife who had so long ago preceded him to the grave.
