George Albert Isely, December 26, 1876 - Oct. 30, 1916

George Albert Isely, son of Mr. and Mrs. Christ. Isely, was born in the town of Washington, Green county, on December 26, 1876. He was baptized May 18, 1879, and confirmed April 5, 1895. His marriage to Miss Sophia Benkert, of Monroe, occurred on May 26, 1904, and to this union four children were born.
Shortly after his marriage he acquired a farm in Adams township, upon which he continued to reside up to the time of his death. He was one of the number to fall a victim to the prevailing epidemic, having been stricken with influenza about ten days before his death. While his condition was considered rather serious at first, it subsequently took a turn for the better and he was reported to be doing so
nicely that the unexpected news of his death came as a severe shock to his many relatives and friends. He breathed his last on Wednesday morning, Oct. 30, between 4 and 5 o'clock. The deceased was a man who stood high in the estimation of those whom he numbered among his friends. He was a loving and considerate husband and father, and, as a neighbor, he was always kind and accommodating. He was a faithful member of the German Reformed church of Washington township, and for a number of years had served the church as a member of the consistory. He was also a member of the church choir.
His remains were interred in the Washington township cemetery on Friday afternoon,
November 1, services being conducted at the house at 1 o'clock and at the grave one hour later. Rev. A. Muehlmeier officiated.
