Read More	Joseph C McCreight, after being confined to his bed for nine weeks with a complication of diseases and heart disease, died at his home four miles east of Wapakoneta, at 10 a.m. November 18th, 1919. The deceased was born July the 29th 1844. Aged 75 years, 3 months and 19 days. He died on the farm on which he was born. He was the youngest son of John McCreight and Anna Powell-Bryan, his mother having been married to Jesse Bryan in 1821. To the first union were born six children, Eliza, John, Luke Rachel, Sarah and William Bryan, now deceased. To the second union were born five children: Washington, Elizabeth, Nancy, Harrison, and Joseph C. McCreight. The latter being the last of the large pioneer family. Jos. C. McCreight was married to Miss Phoebe Brackney. Daughter of Wm. Brackney of St. Johns, O. in 1869. To this union were born five children; John H. Ella May, Wm. A, Ida Mary and LeRoy McCreight, who still survive the father and mother. Some years after the death of Phoebe McCreight, he was united in marriage to Mrs. Laura Hern, widow of John W. in 1895 near St. Johns, O. No children were born to this union. He leaves to mourn his departure, his widow, three sons and two daughters; one step-son and three step-daughters; nine grandchildren. He was a member of the M.E. church at St. John, Ohio. He was ill a long time and was prepared to go when his Maker called him. He was a good man; honest and upright with his neighbors and ever ready to do a good deed. He was a volunteer veteran of the Civil War, and now has gone to meet his comrades, where warfare is no more. He was a kind and indulgent father, and will be missed by his neighbors and his family. We hope the family will bear their great sorrow with fortitude and when the Death angel calls for them they will greet him in that “Mansion not made with hands: where sorrow never is ; where pain is no more; where joy, and gladness fill the souls of all. He has gone beyond the river. He is free from grief and pain; Let us grieve not for our father, For we know he lives again. After the funeral services by Rev. Frisbie the remains were interred at St. Johns, O., Thursday, November 20 1919. Wapakoneta Daily News Nov. 21, 1919
