Nearly a Century Has Passed Since Mr. Abraham Ingraham Was Born, and Has Been an Honored Citizen of Licking County for Many Years. Mr. Abraham Ingraham died Saturday morning at 1 o'clock at the home of his daughter, Mrs. James Oldaker, near Croton, Ohio. He was 96 years of age, he was a member of the Methodist church, and the funeral will take place at the Methodist church at Fredonia, Sunday, at 2:30 p.m. Interment in the church cemetery. An interesting life history is that of The Advocate's oldest subscriber, Abraham Tate Ingraham. Mr. Ingraham has taken The Advocate for over 50 years, seldom missing a single issue of the semi-weekly. He has voted the Democratic ticket at every election since and including that of Andrew Jackson in 1832, and has lived in Licking county for all but 12 years of his long and successful life. Mr. Ingraham was born in Harrison county, Virginia, near Clarksburg, on July 28, 1811. At the age of 5 years his parents removed to Wood county, Va., where they remained until 1816, when they changed their residence to Marietta, Ohio. Shortly after this the family again moved, coming to a farm which Mr. Ingraham's parents had purchased and which is situated two and one-half miles south of Fredonia, this county. Working hard, as country boys must in those days, Mr. Ingraham was reared in a practical school of self-education along agricultural lines, and soon became a most successful farmer. After some time spent on the farm, he decided to try business for himself and was for a time employed in Granville. He soon became interested in the milling business and purchased a mill of his own in Morrow county. After a short time there he engaged in the dry goods business in Findlay, O. But old Licking's call to him was too strong to be resisted, and he retired from real active work and came to the country again. In November 1834, Mr. Ingraham was married to Miss Eleanor Horn, a prominent young woman of Union Station. To them were born four sons and one daughter. The hand of grim death touched the family and took the mother and wife from its midst. Some years later Mr. Ingraham was married to Miss Margaret Harris of near St. Louisville. Of these two marriages and family of ten children, but four remain. They are M. B. Ingraham of Nampo, Idaho; Frank, employed now at the Jewett Car works, this city; Mrs. Clara Philbrook, residing three miles west of Johnstown, and Mrs. Jennie Oldaker of near Croton. Although so far past the allotted years of mankind and so near the century mark, Mr. Ingraham was in possession of remarkable strength and vitality until the past few months, when he had been troubled considerably with heart disorder. In spite of this his mind was clear, sound, and brilliant. His big, wholesome character, his business-like view of things, both near and far, tells a story of an almost wonderful life history, and reads like a book of pure, white pages. Published in the Newark Advocate, Newark, Ohio, June 29, 1907.
