[alvin] & Rachel Mann, was born on a farm in Athens county Ohio, on April 22, 1867. When nine years of age he came with his parents to Iowa where they located on a farm near Kent. In 1882, the family moved to Clearfield, which was then in the building and were among the first to buy a lot, upon which the father, being a contractor and builder by trade, built a carpenter shop. Mr. Mann worked with his father until he finished school and when the family removed to Gravity, “Sella” as he was best known, started a shop of his own. Later he returned to Clearfield where he worked for Hartman Brothers and then as a partner of Wilbert M. Long in the Hardware business. For several years he was employed by Brown-Camp Hardware Co. at Des Moines—but again he came back to Clearfield. In 1919 he moved to Shenandoah where he was employed by the Cooper-West Furniture Store for twelve years. At the end of this period he retired from active business, moving back to “the old town” that he might spend the remainder of his life among old time friends. About six months ago, he began to fail in health and death came on Tuesday, July 2, 1940. Mr. and Mrs. Mann joined the Clearfield Methodist Church during the pastorate of Rev. D. B. S. Prather. He was married to Clara Hartman, August 22, 1888. To this union were born three sons and one daughter. The wife and mother passed away October 2d, 1909 and the daughter, Helen Mann Wilson, on January 9th, 1932. On July 8, 1913, he was married to Mrs. Maude Porter Waring, of Denver, Colo. He is survived by his wife; by three sons—Leo of Portland, Oregon, Harry R. of Hiawatha, Kansas, Clare F. of Council Bluffs, Iowa; by two brothers, Fred W. of Lincoln, Neb. and Sylvester, of Des Moines, Iowa. There are also two stepdaughters, Mrs. Mabel Hartley of Mingo, Iowa and Mrs. Ruth Sandquist of Berwick, Iowa; and one stepson—Porter Waring of Denver, Colo. These, with grandchildren and a host of friends, mourn his departure. Funeral services were held at Clearfield Methodist Church at 2 p. m. on Friday, July 5th. The floral offerings were very beautiful. A mixed quartet sang and the pastor, Rev. M. O. McKenzie, spoke from the text, “Have faith in God.” Interment was in the Clearfield Cemetery. [Note: His Iowa State Death Certificate gives his birth date as April 22, 1867.] Contributor: Julia Johnson (47176433)
