Later he moved with his parents to Licking County, Ohio, residing there until 1857, at which time, a boy of seventeen, imbued with the spirit of the pioneer youth of those days, he bade good bye to his childhood home and set out by himself for the frontier, arriving in due time in Fulton county, Illinois, which was then comparatively wild and unsettled. Here for the ensuing four years he engaged vigorously in the sturdy activities of those early times. When the Civil War broke out he was one of the first to respond to his country's need, answering to President Lincoln's first call for volunteers by enlisting on August 24th , 1861, in Company K,Seventh Illinois Volunteer Cavalry. When the first term of enlistment was completed he re-enlisted at once and served throughout the entire war, being mustered out and honorably discharged on November 11th, 1865. Answering the new call of his country for her sons to pursue the arts of peace, he engaged in farming, first in Fulton County, and later in Warren County, Illinois. In 1875 he moved with his wife and children to Kansas, settling at the time upon the farm where he lived uninterruptedly until his death. On May, 1864 in Fulton county, Illinois, while at home on a short furlough, he was united in marriage with Delia Porter To this union there were born ten children, six whom are now living; these being Ralph G., of Chicago, Ill., Clara M. (Gorrill) of Lawrence, Kansas, Thaddeus C., of Miltonvale, Kansas, Olin A., of Murdo, South Dakota, Minnette (Correll) of Manhattan, Kansas, and Ira, who has always remained at home. From the date of his first settlement therein Mr. Kimble has closely identified himself with the life and interests of the community. He was to high degree, a public spirited citizen, actively participating, to the limit of his means and ability, in any and every agency calculated to be of real help to his friends and neighbors. To the educational and religious institutions of the neighborhood he gave a very special care, serving effectively for many years as a member of the school board and at all times actively supporting, with time, money and personal effort the church and related organizations. He died after an illness of about six months duration, in his old home, at seven o'clock on the morning of June tenth, surrounded by his wife and children his end at the last being as quiet and peaceful as the falling asleep of the little child in its mother's arms. The funeral was held from the church of which he was a member, and his body laid to rest under the sentinel pines of the neighboring cemetery, in the presence of the family, relatives and friends whom he loved and whose welfare was always his first thought and constant care. He fought the good fight. He kept the faith. His reward is commensurate. CARD OF THANKS To our friends and neighbors -- we desire to take this means of giving public expression to our sincere thanks and heartfelt appreciation of your kindness and sympathy shown during the long illness and recent death of our husband and father, Bernard DeWitt Kimble.
