He came to Iowa when fifteen years old where he lived on a farm until 1912 when he moved to Massena, where he took an active part in the civic affairs of the town serving as both mayor, and councilman for a number of terms. November 1, 1866 he was married to Mary Matilda Cline. To this union were born seven children, four boys, and three girls: Julia Caroline Reichardt and Joshua DeVore, deceased, and the living children, William Franklin, Ethel Thompson, Guy Allen, Harrison Hayes, and Mellie Parkinson. Besides these, he leaves to mourn his passing a kind and loving wife, twenty-nine grandchildren, and ten great-grandchildren. Also, one living brother, who resides in Oklahoma, and a host of other relatives and friends, who always found him a friend in time of need. It has often been said of him that he never passed a person without a smile and word of greeting. Thus a good man has passed from our community to be greatly missed by those who loved and admired him. Funeral services were held Saturday, October 5 at Massena at 2:00 p.m. conducted by Rev. Warden of the Massena Baptist church. Interment was made in Victoria cemetery.
