Camp was born Oct. 20, 1856, in Defiance county, Ohio, on the Grandfather Camp homestead, and died at his home east of Edon, O., on Feb 25, 1928, aged 71 years, 4 months and 6 days. He was the eldest of a family of four children born to Henry and Catherine Jones Camp, the other three being Samuel H. Camp, of Pleasant Lake, Ind.; Emanuel A. Camp, who departed this life June 10, 1901, and Mary E. Zimmerman, of West Unity, O. His mother passed away on Nov. 20, 1910, and his father on June 14, 1912. At the age of 12 years he moved with his parents to Williams county, on a farm that was a dense woods, where he helped his father clear the land that is now known as the J. E. Camp farm. He drove the oxen and helped to lay the corduroy road that once led from the farm to the Ingram schoolhouse, which road is now the stone county farm road leading into Edon. "Ed," as he was commonly known among his friends, was of a retiring nature, a good disposition, and a kind neighbor. He was a hard worker, a careful manager, and his stock, land and buildings are a proof of the good care they received at his hands. After the death of his brother Emanuel, his young widow, Rosa, remained in the Camp home, where she has faithfully and lovingly cared for Father and Mother Camp until they passed away, and has now remained to keep up the old home until this day. To her this older brother-in-law seemed more like a father, and no sacrifice was thought too great, if she could bring pleasure to him, for whom she kept house so many years. In the last few months when failing health came upon him the kind hands of this sister-in-law ministered to his every need, night and day. There remain to mourn their loss, one brother, Samuel H. Of Pleasant Lake, Ind., who bears a double grief, his own wife having slipped away at the same time; one sister, Mrs. Mary Zimmerman, of West Unity, O.; his faithful housekeeper and sister-in-law, Mrs. Rosa Camp, besides many other relatives and friends. It is sad that one we cherish Should be taken from our home, But the joys that do not perish Live in memory alone. All the years we spent together, All the happy golden hours, Shall be cherished in remembrance, Fragrance sweet from memory's Flowers. Heaven retaineth now our treasure, Earth the lonely casket keeps; And the sunbeams love to linger Where our darling brother Sleeps. The funeral service was conducted from the home by Rev. Roy C. Vandegriff and Rev. S. M. Smith of Edon, and interment made in the old family burying ground at Farmer Center, O., on Feb. 29, 1928. Card of thanks.- Friends and neighbors, words have failed us to express sincere thanks to one and all for the much-needed work, words and those beautiful flowers, tokens of love; to Bros. Vandegriff and Smith; to the Meyers undertakers, for kind and patient service. O, how much, we can not express in words in our sad home, of God's will be done. May you all receive a blessing from our Saviour, is our prayer. Mrs. Rosa Camp, Edon, O. Mr. And Mrs. J. M. Zimmerman and family, West Unity, O. Mr. Samuel Camp and family, Pleasant Lake, Ind.
