| 4606 | from "The Hoxie Sentinel", 17 Sep 1896 (posted by Karen de Sanno on findagrave.com) NINETY YEARS OLD On Saturday, August 15, 1896, a number of invited guests assembled at the home of his youngest son, W.P. Woods, to celebrate the 90th birthday anniversary of William J. Woods. Among those present: Mr. & Mrs. J.W. Toothacre, Mr. & Mrs. O. Hasen, Mr. & Mrs. J.S. Conard, Mr. & Mrs. Linias Fogle and family and Mrs. S.A. Pratt. After dinner congratulatory letters were read from James S. Peairs, of Shenandoah, Iowa, who said that he was 83 years old and that he and Mr. Woods were the only living members of their families of 18 persons. The Pierce branch of the family are still living on the old farm in Pennsylvania, which has been in possession of the same family without a break for 132 years. It was purchased from the Indians on a Tommyhawk right in 1776, the amount paid was leather for a pair of moccasins, by Elisha and Joseph Peairs. J.S. Peairs has the first deed in his possession which was all written in old style copper plate hand. The name is spelled Peairs there, although it is called Pierce now. Mr. Woods was born on that farm at Round Hill Church and learned to walk at Fort DeQuesne, now Pittsburg, where they had fled from an Indian scare. A Presbyterian church was built on the land, has been rebuilt twice, first of logs, then frame and now brick. Mr. Woods has been active in public life. He published the Galesburg Free Democrat at Galesburg, ILL., before the war and spent his money and time for the emancipation of the Negro. He helped build Amity College at College Springs, Iowa, and was a trustee of that institution for 10 years. He has voted the Republican ticket for 40 years and sees no reason why he should change now. Of course, he is for McKinley and Hobart, wound money, protection and prosperity. from "The Hoxie Sentinel" 1 Oct 1896 (posted on findagrave.com) A mistake in the Sentinel of September 17, in an article headed "Ninety Years Old."

| 4615 | from "The Iowa County Advertiser", 16 Dec 1909 (posted on findagrave.com) James M. Woods one of the old and respected pioneers of this section and one of the few surviving veterans of the Civil War answered the unexpected call of the angel of death here, Tues morning, Dec 7, 1909. The funeral took place from the family residence Thursday morning. Requiem Mass and services were held at St. Joseph's church. Interment at St. Joseph's Cemetery. The deceased was born in Indiana, Nov 8th, 1842. He began his journey west in early years, arriving in Iowa with a railroad construction gang when he was only twelve years old. The fact that he was with this gang would suggest that he began to rely upon his own energy and labor at an early age. His coming to Iowa 57 years ago, he came when this territory was nothing more than a wilderness. His experience in this country would correspond with those on the frontier. He has experienced all the trials and struggles with which the older settlers were forced to undergo. Mr. Woods was among the few of the surviving veterans of the Civil War. He entered the services of Uncle Sam at Burlington enlisting in Company E, 35th Iowa Infantry, and served his country for three years. His love for his country and patriotism were of the highest. He was married to Catherine Lantry at Marengo, Iowa Aug 27, 1873. To this union were born ten children who with a loving wife survive him. The children are Mrs. R.F. Bevins of Petersville, Iowa, Mrs. D.W. Dwyer, Mrs. Henry Kuhny, Miss Kate and Thomas of Cedar Rapids, Mrs. Lou Swope, of Broken Bow, Nebraska, Miss Mary of Des Moines, J.B. of Gregory, SD, and Chas and Willie at home. Beside these he is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Griffin of this place, Mrs. Cleo Peppers of CA, John of OK, Marion of this county, Vall of Chicago, and George near Des Moines. As a friend and neighbor he was all that could be expected of the most true. He was ready and willing to lend a helping hand to those in need, he was courteous, honest, truthful and faithful. While he was raising of a large family, yet world came to him as a pleasure and enjoyed life. He carved his words and spoke of nothing but what he knew to be true, he weighed question concerning him and his interest and those of his fellow man, and once arrived at a decision could not be moved by nothing but reasonable evidence. He plied out of his government, bowed submission to the Catholic Church and carefully interested himself in the welfare of his family. He goes to his Eternal home leaving kind words on the lips of those who know him and sympathy for those who survive him. | Woods, James Marion (I18043)

| 4632 | from "The Janesville Daily Gazette", 30 Dec 1878 (newspapers.com) The editor and proprietor of the Beloit Graphite, Mr. Frederick E. Filmore, died at his home in the city Saturday evening the 28th inst., of inflation of the bowels. Mr. Fillmore had been a resident of that city less than three years, but during that time by an upright and manly course and by untiring industry and his chosen profession, as a journalist, had won for himself a large circle of friends, who to-day mourn that his young life and the promise it gave of so much usefulness in the world has been so suddenly cut short. One week ago he was summoned to Janesville, to testify on the Mack trial, and taking a severe cold he was, on the following Monday prostrated with the disease, which so quickly terminated his life. Mr. Fillmore was married to Miss Eva Tuttle, a most estimable lady out of Beloit, only three months ago, and the happiness which seemed to fill each life by this Union was of Mark significance; and the grief which now fills to overflowing the cup of the trusting young wife, widowed before the dawn of wifehood was hardly realized, it's too deep and sacred, and fitting word, to be told. The tender sympathy of many hearts goes out to her today, as well as to the mother, the father, the brothers and sisters, whose family circle has now for the first time been entered by the stern messenger – death. Mr. Filmore's remains will be taken to Marengo Illinois, his former home, today for interment. What will be the future of the Graphic we cannot predict. Mr. Fillmore had labored hard to make his paper a success, and had more than met the expectations of his friends. The Fraphic has been a live, spicy local paper, and if dropped out of sight now it will be a matter of regret to many. | Fillmore, Frederick E (I26599)
