Excerpts from "A Genealogical History of the Eubank Family" by Oren Emmett Eubank:
"Joseph and Rosana (Rohrer) Eubank had 11 children, one of whom, Ellen,
passed away at the age of 2 years, 2 months and 29 days. The ten remaining
children all lived to maturity and marriage."
The oldest son of this couple was Aaron Eubank, who married Lusadia Swaim,
his second wife, and parents to Arthur. Aaron Eubank was married three times.
Now quoting from the above mentioned book: Page 28 ~
"Arthur L. Eubank, the son of Aaron and Lusadia (Swaim) Eubank, left his father's
home at the southeast corner of the intersection of Sherman Avenue and Ohio
Street in Marion, Grant County, Indiana, in the year of about 1899, when he was
about 30 years of age, going by horseback to the State of Colorado.
He worked for a gold mining company near Telluride, in San Miguel County,
Colorado, for several years as a tram man, after which he was employed by
the Western Power Company at Illium, Colorado, and his job was to walk the
Illium Flume.
He slipped on the wet flume and fell, injuring his spine, causing paralysis,
which caused his death.
There is no available record at this time, December 12, 1967, of the date
of his death.
Little more is known about him other than a type-written paper that was
written by someone at the time of his death; that was sent to Floyd Ketner,
a cousin of his and mine, and mailed by Floyd to this writer in December of
1967, 36 years after the accident.
The supposition is that he, Arthur, never married. A facsimile of the above
mentioned paper appears herein."

"Through inquiry by the writer to the Montrose Funeral Home, at Montrose,
Colorado, as of December 29, 1967, I received the following information.

Montrose, Colorado. He passed away Oct., 8th,, 1931, at St, Lukes

"ARTHUR L. EUBANK DIES AS A RESULT OF A BROKEN BACK"
"A. L. Eubank, who for the past 15 years has been in the employment
of the Western Colorado Power Company in this Section, in the capacity
of flume patrolman, passed away at St, Luke's Hospital, Montrose, Colorado
at the noon hour, Thursday, Oct., 8th.
While walking the flume, three miles above Ames last Friday, Mr. Eubank
slipped and fell, breaking his back. Every effort was made to save his life,
but his spine was so badly injured, that nothing could save him,
0. G. Cowan of Illium was with him at the time of the accident.
Dr. C. S. Mollohan was immediately summoned and Mr. Eubank was
rushed to the hospital at Montrose, the doctor and Alva Otto making
the trip with him.
He had been paralyzed in the lower part of his body since the accident
and had not been relieved of this condition, although everything possible
had been done to help him.
An intricate operation was performed by Dr. Robert G. Packard, one of the best surgeons in Denver, who was brought to Montrose by the power company.
Three vertebras were broken in the lower part of Mr. Eubank's neck.
He was 56 years of age at the time of his death. Funeral arrangements will be
made as soon as his sister and brother-in-law arrive from Nebraska.
Other survivors are a brother who address is unknown and two uncles,
one residing in Michigan, and one in Oklahoma."
