Read More	FOULON, James Stephen – James Stephen Foulon, son of Ferdinand and Margate Foulon, was born near Georgetown, Brown county, Ohio, September 16, 1855, and died at his home near Fairmont, Neb., December 15, 1918, at the age of 63 years, 2 months and 29 days. He lived in Brown county until he was about nineteen years of age, then in 1874 moved with his brother Jacob to Essex, Ia. On February 20, 1884, he was married to Jennie Porter at Centerville, Ia., and a little later in that year these hardy and adventurous young people came to Clay county, Nebraska, where they made their home for two years. They then bought and moved to the farm near Fairmont, which remained his home until his death, and it is still the home of his widow and daughter. James Foulon and his wife were the parents of three children: Edward Porter, Maude Roberta and James Robert, of whom Edward and Maude remain alive to grieve at his going and to comfort their heart-broken mother. Besides these nearest relatives the deceased is survived by two sisters and two brothers and in addition thereto a great number of friends and associates who shall remember this, our brother with heavy hearts. James Foulon was a public-spirited man and took rather more than his full share of the responsibilities of caring for the interests of the community in which he lived. For many years he lent his time to the local school district, acting as one of its officers, for several years he gave his time and talent to the county, being a member of the board of supervisors. For two legislative terms he served his state in the general assembly, where his voice, influence and vote were always on the side of right and equity. This, our brother, was a man of so fair a mind that no thought of personal gain or preferment ever swayed him in giving his counsel or in casting his vote while a legislator for his state. He was so broad of mind and of heart that in no sense was he the legislative tool of a group or region. In very truth he was a state legislator. He was a son of toil and not unacquainted with adversity. But through industry and good business judgment he acquired a competency. And though he was prosperous, he always had consideration for those less so than himself, and none who needed appeared to him in vain. In all his private life this brother of ours was sane reproach. His mind was too big to harbor mean and contemptible thoughts. His heart was too clean to be the dwelling place for foulness. With himself he was most exacting, with his friends most generous and with his loved ones most indulgent.
