He was born in Halland, Sweden, June 17, 1828, and emigrated to this country while a young man. He was united in matrimony in Wapello county, Iowa and from there moved to Swede Bend, where they settled down until 1890, when they moved to Stratford, where his wife passed away in 1905. He was converted in the Swede Bend community during the ministry of Pastor Berggren. He was a faithful member of the South Marion M. E. church, where he held his membership for many years. He loved the house of God and attended the services regularly, as long as his physical strength permitted it. He was at home with his Bible and often quoted a number of passages and promises, which were a comfort and a power to him in his old age. He suffered considerable the last days of his pilgrimage from a fall, which he sustained the day before Christmas. Tender care was given him in the home of his daughter, Julia, with whom he has made his home for several years. God in his mercy made the suffering short and liberated the spirit from the earthly tabernacle. The deceased is mourned by four sons, three daughters, twenty-eight grand-children, four great grand-children, besides other relatives and a host of friends. May the God of consolation uphold them In their day of sorrow. The funeral ceremonies were held in the Stratford M.E. church January 2, the Rev. C. A. Anderson assisting the pastor of the South Marion church, who preached the sermon from the text in 2 Kings 20:1: "Set thine house in order for thou shalt die." The beautiful weather made it possible for a large audience to pay its last tribute to the old pilgrim. The interment took place in the Oakwood cemetery. Dayton Review December 30, 1915 Wm. Poulson went over to Stratford Saturday morning to see his father, John Poulson, Sr., who had a serious accident Christmas evening, getting a fall by stumbling over some object in the room, and breaking his leg in the hip. He is eighty-seven years old, and the doctors were unable to set the leg so that it might knit, on account of his age. It is feared he may not get over the injury. Mr. Poulson was well known in this community, especially among the older settlers, and all hope he may yet recover. * * * * * Johannes "John" Pahlsson was born July 17, 1828 in Knäred, Halland, Sweden, the son of Pahl Nilsson and Elna Svensdotter. He emigrated to America in 1853 and was married to Maria (Jonsdotter) Monson in 1854 in Van Buren County, Iowa.
