Sylvester B. Creamer, was born in Baltimore County, Maryland, February 22 1811; departs this life, April 4, 1894; aged 83 years, 1 month and 13 days.
The deceased came with his parents to Belmont County, Ohio in 1815, where he made his home until August 1892. In 1836 he was married to Elizabeth Dent who died 1839. To this union were born two children both living. In 1851 he was married to Susan Scales. To this union were born seven children, five of whom with the mother have preceded him to a better land.
The subject of this sketch was converted and united with the M. E. church when quite young, and has always lived an exemplary Christian life. He was afflicted with paralysis over a year ago and bore his afflictions with unusual patience until the Lord said, "It is enough come up higher." He leaves a sister (Esther Creamer Kinsey), daughter, three sons, and a host of relatives and friends to mourn his departure. We know our loss is his gain, and he now enjoys sweet communion with his Savior. Funeral services were held at the M.E. church in Mentone, Friday, April 6, conducted by Miss Estella Long assisted by Rev. Shelt and M.C. McCormick, after which the remains were conveyed to his former home in Ohio for interment.
