From the Chatsworth Plaindealer
JAMES W. BIRT
FEBRUARY 24, 1888
Died —Of dropsy, Monday, Feb. 20, 1888, James W. Birt, father of Mr. Jno. M. Birt of this city. Deceased had been almost helpless the greater part of the winter, but death came when least expected, as he was feeling better than he had been for some time. James W. Birt was born in Piqua county, Ohio, March 8, 1813, and had been married three times. Dec. 25, 1812, he was wedded to Mrs. Catherine Waters, nee Overmeyer, by whom he had six children, three of whom survive him. In the winter of 1845-6 he moved with his family to Coscino county, Ind., and from thence, in 1857 to LaPorte county. In 1882 he came to Chatsworth, where he and his wife had since resided with his son, John M., and family. He united with the M. E. church about 1850, and afterward transferred his membership to the Baptist church, of which he continued a member until his death. The funeral was from the M. E. church in this city Tuesday afternoon, Rev. H. C. Birch conducting the services. The relatives have the sympathy of many friends.
Note: Obit does not state burial in Chatsworth-Charlotte Cemetery. I could not find him in Ohio or anywhere else in the U.S., so I am guessing he is buried here.
