Funeral services were held from the home Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Ham of Norwood. Mr. Nyswonger was born in Greene county, Pennsylvania, January 27, 1820, and came to Iowa in 1848 and located in Ottercreek township, where he had resided ever since. He was the father of six children, five daughters and one son, all of whom are living and with the exception of two, who reside in California, were present at the funeral. He also leaves thirty-two grandchildren and fourteen great grandchildren. His wife died four years ago and was buried in the Fletcher cemetery. About two weeks prior to his death he requested that her remains be lifted and interred on his own farm, which was done, and he was laid to rest by her side. He donated enough land for a cemetery and a church site, the church to be non-denominational. Deceased was not a member of any church, but he was a good neighbor and a kind friend. He possessed some rather peculiar ideas and habits, yet beneath a somewhat rough exterior beat a warm and sympathetic heart. The bereaved children have the sympathy of many friends in their sorrow.
