Webber, second son of Rev. Calvin S. Webber and Thirzy (Mitchell), his wife, was born in Highland County, Ohio, January 20, 1842, and came to this county with his parents when a small boy. They settled on a farm two miles west of Brock, where they lived until his father’s death, when the mother took her little flock of four boys and two girls back to Ohio. Here Calvin enlisted for service in the Union Army during the Civil War in August 1861. He was mustered out in September 1865, having served four years and one month, five months and some days of which was spent in the Libby prison. For an act of bravery during service he received a corporal’s commission. Returning to this county he was married to Marietta Bull on December 4, 1872. To this union were born eight children, three boys and five girls, three of the girls and one boy having preceded him in death. His wife died April 8, 1911. The four children living are Hezekiah Seldon of Memphis, Mo., O. G., of Protection, Kansas, Inez and Myrtle L. of Ellenburg, Washington. He was again united in marriage to Mrs. Maria M. (Stevens) Harbur, May 20, 1912. Calvin died at his home in this city January 20, 1919, aged 77 years. He leaves to mourn his death, his wife, four children; six grandchildren; two brothers, Will Webber of Washington and Addison of LaPlata, Mo.; and one sister, Mrs. Louisa Weire of Dallas, Texas. About the year 1890 Mr. Webber purchased 100 acres of land in western Kansas where he moved his wife and seven children. Here he made warm friends and won success on the new lands. He purchased property in the growing town of Coldwater, where he educated his children. At the end of four years it seemed best that he return to his Scotland Count home, when his wife died and life’s interests changed, he made his home with his son, Orville, on the old home place. Here, for a year, he enjoyed a happy life and companionship of his numerous friends until his son left. Then he remarried and returned to Memphis, living quietly and happily with his wife, who faithfully sought his comfort and happiness until he was called to the home not made by hands. As a soldier he was known for his courage, fidelity to duty and patient endurance of adverse circumstances. As a citizen he was patriotic, ever ready to aid the cause of progress with time or money, ever cautious, but true to right as he saw it. Firm in his own opinion, but readily conceding the same right to others, as a friend he was loyal and all the term friend implied and in their hearts will be a pleasant memory. Rev. Crooker, president of Lombard College of Galesburg, Illinois, conducted the funeral services, after which he was tenderly laid to rest in the family plot at the Brock cemetery.
