He moved early in life with his parents from New York to the State of Michigan. During the War of the States, he enlisted in the 6th Michigan Infantry, was transferred and served at Mobile, Alabama, in heavy artillery. He was a loyal member of the G.A.R. He was united in marriage with Josephine Lewellyn, on January 2, 1870. He came to Kansas in 1876 and has resided in or near Burlingame since. He has for many years been a member of the M.E. Church, at Burlingame, and an active Mason for over fifty years. He is survived by his wife, Josephine Lewellyn Hepworth, and children as follows: L. G. Hepworth of Manhattan, Kansas; C. H. Hepworth of Topeka, Kansas; Mrs. Nicholas Bird of Anthony, Kansas, Marion Hepworth of Peoria, Illinois; Cora Hepworth of Topeka, Kansas and R. G. Hepworth of Burlingame. and two brothers H. C. Hepworth of Burlingame; one sister, Mrs. Edith Mounts of Tonkawa, Oklahoma, and ten grandchildren. The funeral service took place Sunday afternoon at 2'30 o'clock from the Methodist Episcopal Church. The Rev. J. W. R. Clardy of Topeka, a former pastor and old friend of the family preached the sermon. He was assisted in the services by Rev. H. H. Fowler. A quartette choir consisting of Mrs. W. H. Hakes, Miss Bess Miner, Irwin McCutcheon and E. L. Sutherland sang "He Leadeth Me." Miss Bess Miner sang "Crossing the Bar" at the church and "The Soldiers Last Song" at the grave. The Masonic fraternity had charge of the services at the grave at the close of which Clarence Chatfield sounded "Taps." And thus endeth the chapter for another brave defender of his country and highly respected pioneer citizens of this community. Democratic in politics, a man of stern decision, yet tempered with a spirit of absolute fairness, his life socially, politically and in business way has always been such as to afford no reproach to his character. Mr. Hepworth's citizenship dates back almost fifty years, and all during that time he was active in every cause for the betterment of his community, state or nation. He never flinched what he considered a moral duty, no matter how hard or distasteful the task. Burlingame, KS Enterprise Chronicle-March 15, 1923 Contributed by Thomas Hotchkiss
