Washington Rupe died at his home in Cheshire Twp on October 18th, 1888, aged 79
years 4 months and 17 days. The subject of this sketch was born in East Virginia, June 1, 1809,emigrated to Ohio with his parents in 1812, settling in Gallia County, where he has since lived. He married Elizabeth Rothgeb May 12, 1837. They were the parents of eleven children, eight of whom with the aged companion and mother, survive him. He was stricken with paralysis one year ago, from which he never recovered, though he was up and around until a few weeks before his death. He professed faith in Christ in 1851, and united with the Second Kyger Free Will Baptist Church. He ever tried to live an upright, consistent Christian life, and his brethren feel that truly a strong pillar in the church has fallen. His funeral services were held at the church October 20th, which was largely attended, and his mortal remains were laid in the churchyard, (beside those who preceded him) in resurrection hope. Funeral services by Rev. W. J. Fulton.
