When one year of age he moved with his parents to Knoxville, Ill. From there they moved to Falls City, Nebr. in 1868. He was married to Medora Luella Blank in 1878 at Nebraska City. To this union five children were born, two sons, Ray and Charles dying in infancy. They made their home in Falls City for a number of years, then came west and homesteaded in Cheyenne Co., Kans., where they underwent many of the many hardships of the early pioneers. In 1897 they moved to their farm 5 miles northeast of Chester, where they lived until 1910 when they moved to Chester. His wife passed away in Jan. 1920 and since that time he has made his home with his daughter and husband, Mr. and Mrs. J.E. Woodard. Mr. Elwell united with the Methodist Church when a young man and has always been a faithful Christian worker. He was a regular attendant at the Church services until his health failed and he was no longer able to attend. He was a great lover of children and the young people of his family have many happy memories of him. He was very patient through all his years of suffering and spent many hours reading his Bible. He was a good neighbor and was always willing to help in any time of need. He is survived by three children Frank W. of Winner, South Dakota, Reuben B. and Mrs. J.E. Woodard (sic)of Chester; one sister, Mrs. Alice Pittock of Walla Walla, Wash.; seventeen grandchildren, 10 great grand children and a number of nieces and nephews. Dearest grandpa, how we'll miss you, Ever since I was a child I have seen you in your rocker Always patient, meek and mild Always playing with the baby Mending all the children's toys Going down town on an errand Helping adults, girls and boys. Always smiling when we came there And we hope in that far land Again we'll see that happy smile And feel the grasp of that friendly hand. (Mrs. G.H. Segrist)
