Tobin, at Bloomington, Macon Co., Mo., November 23, 1853. To this union was born eight boys and six girls. The wife and all the children survive him. The children are: Mrs. Ida Turner, of Oak Dale, Mo., Louis A., Carpon Oklahoma, Sam, of Bucklin, Mo., Wm. C. of Hannibal, Mo., Mrs. Belle Saylers of Macon, Mo., Mrs. Minie L.

He came to Kansas and settled with his family 35 miles west of Kiowa, Kansas, in 1866. Removed to Okloahma in 1893 and into Kiowa in 1904. He united with the Presbyterian church in early years but in his later years was a consistent member of the Congregational church and held his membership at Kiowa at the time of his death. He died in triumph of living faith. He has been in his life one of those sturdy pioneers by the gift of whose life, states have been established, cities built, counties made prosperous. Limited in education advantages yet he was educated in the questions of the day and up to time in questions relative to the church and the state. At the time of his death there were present 8 sons and three daughters. His mind was clear at all times and in the last few days of his life spoke much of his family and past life. Funeral services were held at the residence by Rev. McSkimming. His sons, three of whom are over fifty years old, and the youngest twenty years, acted as pall bearers.—Kiowa Journal
