He died Thursday morning at his home south of the city. Mr. Bolton had been in very poor health for some months, his original illness and enfeebled condition being aggravated some weeks since by a slight stroke. Mr. Bolton was a native of Tennessee, having been born near Knoxville, April 13, 1828. He was the son of Peter and Saloma (Coffman) Bolton, who were pioneer residents of Tennessee. The parents, who were of English and German descent, left Tennessee, coming to Indiana when Thomas was about three years old. They located on a farm in Union county and after residing there for a number of years, moved to Franklin county and resided there until death claimed them, the father dying in 1846 and the mother in 1871. When 31 years of age, Thomas left Franklin county and came to Tipton county, locating on the farm where he died. The original purchase consisted of 80 acres bought of Isam Cloud of Hamilton county, the price being 1500. It was bought on a credit of five years, the deferred payments drawing ten per cent interest. In 1852, prior to coming to Tipton county, Mr. Bolton was united in marriage to Sarah E. Evans, daughter of a seaman, who sailed the ocean off the coast of Maryland. In the home they made for themselves in the wilderness, she made a good help mate for him, enduring hardships and privations in the new life. Their first home was a one room log cabin, 16x16, built from round logs and no nails were used in its construction. The roof was made of clapboards, held in place by the weight of poles across the top. The one lonely window was covered with a greased paper to admit the light. Here on this farm they reared a family of eight children six of whom are living at the present time. Peter Bolton, Saloma, wife of Frank Smith, of Tipton, Laura, wife of J.C. Ludlow, near Sharpsville, Ida, wife of John Laudig, south of Tipton, Jennie, wife of David Robinson of Indianapolis and Martha, who makes her home with her parents. Mrs. Bolton died in September 1892 from a stroke. Mr. Bolton had added to his original farm until he has 120 acres of the finest Tipton county land. The log cabin gave place to a modern commodious brick residence, this being recently destroyed by fire.
