The Guide Rock Signal (Guide Rock, NE), Thursday, December 24, 1925; pg. 1
Edward Lewis Hagan
son of Samuel and Eleanor Hagan, was born in Tuscorawas (sic) county (sic), Ohio, April 21, 1844. He enlisted in company C of the 34th Regiment of Iowa Volunteers and was honorably discharged at Houston, Texas, August 15, 1865.
On November 10, 1867, at Indianola, Iowa, he was united in marriage to Jane Wood, and to this union ten children were born as follows: Samuel T. of Clayton, Kansas, William D. of Guide Rock, John W. who died August 4, 1919, Mary M. Blackwell of Clayton, Kansas, Marshall G. of Dodson, Mo., Winfield S. who died in infancy, Fred C. of Guide Rock, Mattie Ann who died in infancy, Effie Miner of Guide Rock, and Florence E. Mackey of Broken Bow.
He is survived by four sons and three daughters and his aged companion, with whom he had lived a happy wedded life for fifty eight years. All were present at the funeral. There are thirty-five grandchildren and twelve great-grandchildren. One brother, Alonzo Hagan, is living at Ontario, California. There are two sisters living, Mrs. Sarah Cassiday, Milo, Iowa, and Mrs. Mary Goble, Des Moines, Iowa.
In early life he was a member of the Baptist church. Later he joined the society of friends and then reunited with the Methodist Episcopal church (sic) . He was a constant attendant and habitually took his family with him. He found delight in knowing that his son John, who was killed by lightning, had been a Sunday School superintendent and that on the Sunday before his sudden death had offered a prayer long remembered by those who heard it.
For many years he was a member of the G.A.R. whose ranks are rapidly thinning, there being but three old soldiers left in and around Guide Rock.
He came from Iowa with his family to a farm four and one-half miles north and west of Guide Rock in 1884. The family moved to Guide Rock in 1898. He was a man of strong physique until some three years ago when disease entered his body that caused his death December 16, 1925, at the ripe old age of eighty-one years, seven months and twenty-five days.
He was a man of jovial disposition, kind to his family, a good neighbor, an exemplary citizen. He was ready to change worlds trusting implicity (sic) in his God.
The funeral services were held at the Methodist church on Friday at 2 p.m., Rev. B.F. Eberhart preaching the sermon from 1 Cor. 13.12. Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Yung, Mrs. Glen Bramwell and Mr. W.L. Williams sang appropriate hymns. Mrs. Bramwell sang a solo, "The City Four Square." Mrs. O.C. Lamb played the accompaniment. A large congregation attended the obsequies. Interment was made in Guide Rock cemetery (sic).
The pall bearers were sons of veterans - W.P. and Omer Crowell, Loyd and Russel Farquhar, Ervine and Stanly Woodward. During the afternoon the business houses flew their flags at half mast.
