The funeral services were held at the Methodist church in Siam Wednesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Robert Boshen of Bedford. Burial was in the Siam cemetery. Charles Addison Clayton was born May 14, 1856, the son of George Washington Clayton and Fidelia Schoonover Clayton. He was the oldest child in a family of seven children, and only the youngest of them is now living, Ora Clayton of Lakota, N. Dak. Excepting one year spent near Bedford, his entire life had been lived near Siam. He was born and grew to manhood on the farm, which later became his, and where he passed away. He was married to Elizabeth Bailey of Siam on March 4, 1877 and to this union five children were born, one dying in infancy and Arthur Elmer, who met death by accident April 15, 1894. The three surviving children are Rudolph Roy Clayton of Phoenix, Arizona; Grover Archie Clayton and Mrs. Nellie Miller of Siam. Sept. 12, 1895, his wife was called to the Great Beyond, leaving him and the three children alone. Thus they lived until on Nov. 18, 1900 he was married to Nancy C. Barnes, who shared a happy home with him. She was called to her heavenly home Nov. 14, 1925. Since her death he has continued to live in his own home, two of his children, Arch and Nellie, living near to help and care for him. Besides his three children he leaves to mourn his going seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren. Mr. Clayton had been a member of the Siam M. E. Church for many years and had always taken an active part in the music of the church. He loved music and loved to sing. He never had greater joy than when he had a large chorus of singers and was directing them. The church feels keenly the loss of another of its loyal supporters.
