AN OLD TIME CITIZEN GONE-
William Fellers died at his home in Lincoln on Monday night, after an illness of several weeks, following an operation for internal hernia which was performed on the 9th of December, and the remains were brought to Table Rock for burial on Tuesday afternoon.
Mr. Fellers was one of the first settlers of this community, coming here in 1856, locating on a farm near what afterwards became the village of Table Rock; here he lived until he moved to town where he engaged in the mercantile business with his son Marion, later, another son, W. C. being associated with them, the father retiring from the firm. He was a successful farmer and stock raiser, and an excellent business man, and he accumulated a competence.
He was born in Duchess county, New York, November 11, 1834. In 1855, he was united in marriage to Susana Freeman, to this union seven children were born: Osman W. Fellers, Table Rock; Marion N. Fellers and Anna M. Jones, Genessee, Idaho; Willis C. Fellers, Table Rock; Minnie Strickland, Keewane, Illinois; Mattie J. Smith, Kansas City; Lulu E. Fellers, deceased. His wife died May 8, 1893.
On November 11, 1895, he was united in marriage to Mrs. Iantha J. DeArnold, and until March 1, 1905, they made there home in Table Rock; at that time they moved to Lincoln, where the family still resides.
The body was brought to Table Rock Tuesday, accompanied by the widow, the daughter and her husband Mr. and Mrs. McKelvie, Dr. J. F. Kemper, Rev. George M. Gates and Rev. P.O. Johnson. The funeral services were held in the Methodist church, Dr. Kemper being in charge and addresses made by Dr. Kemper, Dr. Johnson and Rev. Gates, all former pastors of the deceased. The remains were buried in the Table Rock cemetery.
In the death of Mr. Fellers another of the early settlers of Table Rock has passed away; one whose rugged honesty won the friendship of all who knew him. He was always interested in the welfare of our town and contributed of his means in many ways to aid in its improvement, and his death causes grief to the entire community.
His 2nd wife is Iantha (Groves) Fellers- #38265831
