The People's Herald, Dec. 11, 1930, page 1: H.W. McComb Obituary The community was much saddened on Thursday to hear of the death of Mr. McComb. Although he had been sick with sugar diabetis for over a year, his condition did not really become serious until a short time before his death. Henry W. L. McComb was born in Washington, Washington county, Ia., February 24, 1859. When he was six weeks old his parents came to Kansas, coming as many of the pioneers did in a covered wagon drawn by oxen. The McComb family arrived in Topeka early in the summer of 1859, and soon after their arrival, a farm was purchased about ten miles southwest of the city, where the family settled. Henry grew to manhood here, and when he became of age bought a farm of his own adjoining that of his father. On May 8, 1889 he was united in marriage to Miss Effie M. May, of Dover. Mr. and Mrs. McComb continued to reside on his farm for thirty-one years and in March 1920, they moved to Lyndon, where they have since made their home. He made the "good confession" early in life and united with the Episcopal church in Topeka, some years later a Methodist church was organized in his community and he transferred his membership to that church, but after a few years this church was discontinued and he united with the Presbyterian church in Auburn, and when he moved to Lyndon became a member of the Lyndon Presbyterian church. In the religious work of these churches he took an active part especially in the Sunday School work, and for some time has served as a deacon in the church in Lyndon. Mr. McComb is survived by his wife, and four children, three daughters, Mrs. James Carlat of Dover, Mrs. Jess Carlat and Mrs. Roy Carlat of Auburn, and a son, Thomas H. McComb of Lyndon, and eleven grandchildren. He also leaves two brothers and two sisters: Preston and Thomas McComb of Topeka, Mrs. Sarah Dunham of Los Angeles, Calif., and Mrs. James Figger of Stafford, Kansas, and a number of nieces and nephews. Besides these relatives, Mr. McComb leaves a great number of warm friends in whose memory he will always remain, as one who was loyal to his Master, and true to his friends, and loving to his family. He was a law loving, law abiding, clean honest citizen, and lived a life in harmony with that spirit and ideal of citizenship, which has made Kansas a great state. The funeral was conducted at Lyndon on Saturday morning, at Auburn later, and interment was in the Dover cemetery.
