July 14, 1830; in May 1840 his father moved to Wisconsin settling at Lisbon in Waukesha county: on the 4th of July 1852 he was united in marriage to Amanda M Moody who died in 1860, leaving four children; Lewis N; Eddie, Mary and Rhoda, the two latter have also preceded their father to the land beyond. On April 17, 1861 Mr. Bonner volunteered for service and was mustered into the U.S. Army on May 15, 1861, serving his country four years, being honorably discharged from service June 25 1865. He served his first term of his enlistment with the 4th Wisconsin and the second with the 42nd Wisconsin. On February 14, 1863 he was united in marriage to Miss Sarah J Platz and to this union were born eight children; Luella (Mrs. George Harezel, of Denver, Colo.) Leonard T., Orville W, Emerson B Steven T., Cleve C., Frank M. and William J Bonner, all of whom are living. In 1866 Mr. Bonner moved from Wisconsin to Jaynesville, Minn.: in 1872 he came to the state of Nebraska settling in Hamilton county, where he resided until the spring of 1887 when he came to Chase county where he has since resided. After the death of his wife June 7, 1899 he has made his home with his children, for the past several years, at the home of his son L T. Bonner in Imperial, where he passed peacefully away Tuesday evening, Dec 4th, 1923, aged 93 years, 4 months, 20 days, leaving to mourn his absence 10 children, a large number of grandchildren and several great grandchildren: as well as many friends. Grandpa Bonner as he was familiarly known to all the younger generation was one of those grand old men who have always been among the pioneers of all newly settled communities possessed of the courage and sterling qualities which it takes to successfully face all the hardships of the more unsettled parts of the great land of ours, and withal to carry a message of cheer wherever he came in contact with his fellow men. A good husband, father, neighbor and friend; the type of the old school who knew and appreciated the meaning of Friendship. He had often expressed the desire that he might go, when his call came as his father , who lived to the age of 103, had gone, quietly, with no sad farewells, and this wish was granted him it would seem, as he quietly fell asleep. The words written by Tennyson so aptly describe his wishes and their fulfillment. Sunset and evening star And one clear call for me And may there be no moaning of the bar; When I put out to sea, But such a tide as moving seems asleep.
