Departed this life at his home in Jefferson township, Lee co, Iowa, May 14, 1884, William Hurd Griswold, aged 80 years.
Mr. Griswold was born in Fairfield, Herkimer county, NY, April 8th, 1804. He came to Iowa in the spring of 1850, dwelling on his farm in Jefferson township in 1852, which was his home until his death.

He was the father of ten children, six of whom are still living; he also had fifty grandchildren and three great grand children. He was a consistent, thorough, earnest member of the protestant Episcopal church, and was confirmed, with his wife,who survives him, in 1888. The funeral services were held in St. Barnabas church, Montrose (of which he was one of the founders, giving freely of his money and aid in its erection) together with a Requiem Celebration of the Holy Sacrament according to primitive custom and the use of the Catholic church for --years.

Highly esteemed by all his neighbors and friends, his course well and nobly run, he fell asleep in jesus, whose precious body and blood he had received a few days before, having the testimony of a good conscience: in the communion of the Catholic church; in the confidence of a certain faith; in the comfort of a reasonable, religious, and holy hope; in favor with Thee our God, and in charity with the world" "Give Eternal Rest to him, Oh Lord; and may Light Perpetual shine Upon him."



In the village of Alloway, by David Peterson, Esq. on Thursday the 17th inst., Mr. William Griswold, to Miss Sally Underdunk. "Wayne County Patriot and Lyons Advertiser" No 23- Vol. VII Wednesday, Oct 25, 1828
