Pleasant, Henry Co, Iowa Wednesday Feb 5, 1896 PETER O'LOUGHLIN DEAD Mr. Peter O'Loughlin, one of the staunch business men of Henry county, a man, who, by natural ability and untiring energy arose from the conditions of a comparatively poor man, to wealth and influence, died at his home in Rome on Sunday evening about 10 o'clock. Mr. O'Loughlin has been an invalid for a great many years, and his demise was really a blessing to him. His case was a peculiar one, and no hopes were entertained from the beginning that he would ever recover. The immediate cause of death was pneumonia. Peter O'Loughlin was born in the County Clare, Ireland, in 1839. While yet a young man he emigrated to America and settled in New Jersey in 1857. In 1858 he came west and settled in Henry county, at Rome, then a stirring village. He received a business education in Burlington and afterward entered the flooring business firm of O'Loughlin Bros. His heart feeling the emotions of love too strong to withstand, his mind naturally reverted to Old Ireland the land of his birth, and the home of his loved one. In 1865 he went home to Ireland and secured his bride. He was married to Miss Margaret Quinn. This good couple were blessed with six children. The elder daughter, the mother's namesake, passed from life a few years ago and left a void in the family circle. The other children, Michael, James, Peter, Jr., Patrick and Marie, were present at the bedside of their father. Mr. O'Loughlin, while in health, before the sad affliction befel him, was recognized as being one of the best financiers and business men in the county. He was noted for his integrity and honor. His word was as good as his bond. His friends were many and true. His good wife, during the whole period of his infirmity has been a noble and true support. Her life must have been sad, but how sweet to think she did her very best. Her reward will be great. The funeral services took place at St. Alphonsus Catholic church this morning, Rev. Father Bassler conducting the services. his remains were laid to rest in the Catholic cemetery. ~contributed by Find A Grave member #46524960
