The Somerset herald. (Somerset, Pa.): March 16, 1892
Daniel Lepley was born August 12, 1799, and died March 7, 1892, in the ninety-third
year of his age. The childhood, youth and manhood, to the age of about fifty years,
of Grandfather Lepley, were spent in his native township, Southampton, this county…
In his early manhood he was united in marriage to Elizabeth Beal, also of
Southampton township. Ten children was the result of this union, three sons and
seven daughters. One son, Adam C. Lepley, at whose residence he spent the latter
years of his life, and five daughters still survive him. Their grandchildren, at the
time of his death, numbered 80, and the great grandchildren 44. His wife died in the
yesr 1874, having seen ail her children except one attain to manhood and womanhood.
Several years later he married Elizabeth Hoffmire (Wilhelm.) Death soon severed the
union again and claimed his second wife. Thus he was left to finish his earthly
pilgrimage alone. Grandfather Lepley was a member of the Lutheran church… Followed
by a large number of friends and relatives, his remains were laid to rest in the Mt.
Carmel cemetery by the side of those of his first wile. May his ashes rest in peace.
