Notes from Paul Hawkins:
Was a farmer til death.
Died at the E. Eklof home in Hermitage, services by Rev Richert, funeral by J.R.Lucky funeral home.
Both he and his wife are buried in the Tillery Cemetery near the old home at Elkton, Mo.
Helped his son Andy build the home in Weaubleau, Mo.
He moved from Texas to Kentucky, in boyhood and on 26 Feb 1871, was united in marriage with Mary Elizabeth Peden, who died 19 Jan 1926. They had 10 children. He moved to Missouri in 1881 and settled Southwest of Elkton where he lived until 1925 when he and his wife came to live with one of their daughters, Mrs. Eklof. They were members of the Elkton Baptist church and moved their membership to Victory when they came to Hermitage. He was very religious and attended services on a regular basis. He often would in his younger days, take his team from the plow when services at church, to let them rest, and on foot with the younger child on his arm, walked four miles to the church.
