Hartman At the home of Joseph and Catherine Hartman in Johnson County, Iowa, on October 31, 1862, occurred the birth of Jonas D. Hartman, one of a family of eight children. After an eventful career of 90 years, less 16 days, that boy, many times in later years referred to as Uncle Jonas, on October 15, 1952, passed away at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joe McCracken in Red Cloud, Nebraska. When four years of age, he, with the family, moved to Tama County, near by, and when 10 years of age, they came with an emigrant train to Smith County, Kansas, locating near Old Salem. That general vicinity was destined to be intimately acquainted with him all the days of his life. On December 25, 1886, he was united in marriage to Ida May Knight and the marriage of this pioneer couple was a happy one. To them were born three children, Ruby, dying at the age of eleven months, and Gertie, dying in infancy. The other daughter, Minnie, now Mrs. Ray Myers of Lebanon, Kansas, survives. Elmer Myers, grandson, died at 3 years of age. The wife and mother passed away on August 18, 1919. There are many nephews and nieces, and relatives by marriage with whom the son said "he seemed more like a father." And the endearing term "Uncle Jonas" survived to many of his neighbors for more than forty years. At the age of 16, he united with the United Brethren Church and remained a member until the day of his death, being with the Independence group, northwest of Lebanon. His faith was constant with him throughout life. For many years he was Sunday School superintendent, as well as other positions in church work. Until his health failed he was always in attendance in person and with his ability. A farmer, he spent several years in eastern Kansas with his family, but returned to the land of his choice in Smith County. He saw the vanishing prairies and with it the wild life, even the buffalo. He saw, following his example, the infiltration of new people, new life from the East. It may be said he with hundreds of thousands like him conquered the West. He loved it, lived from it, and for it. Carrying mail on the routes out of Lebanon, he gave to the patrons the same thoughtful honest service. His route was part of him, farm life. Honest and religious? No question of it. A good citizen? The bulwark of good citizenship in America came from stock similar to him. A good neighbor? Persons who knew him will give you the answer as to his living in their midst for 80 years. Attesting to these facts and as to his qualifications as a father, are the daughter and her husband, who, as previously stated, survive. Funeral services were held from the Methodist Church in Lebanon Saturday afternoon, with the Reverend Loren Silsby, in charge. The Reverend Harry Riley, pastor of that church, assisted. Burial was in the family lot in Pleasant Plain Cemetery north of Lebanon. Card of Thanks- We wish to thank our friends for the cheer, aid, remembrances in cards, letters and flowers during the long decline in health and subsequent death and burial of our father, Jonas D. Hartman. Ray and Minnie Myers The Lebanon Times, Lebanon, Kansas, October 23, 1952
