From the Gazette for Jan 2, 1919:
Amos Robert Bramell was born near Flemingsburg, Ky, December 13, 1840. He married Sarah M Hocker December 12, 1872. He joined the 12th Kentucky volunteer regiment in 1861 for three months, then re-enlisted for the duration of the war. He participated in the battle of Franklin, the battle of Nashville and the battle of Atlanta, in which latter battle General MacPherson was killed. Through it all he came out unscathed with the exception of smallpox. He was discharged immediately after the close of the war at Louisville, Ky.
He came to Indiana December 25, 1868 - just sixty years to the day to the time of his death. He joined the Methodist church on December 25, 1871 under the ministry of Rev ER Dile.
To the union with Sarah Hocker, four children were born, Ben B, of Washington, DC; Alma Fowler, of Pittsboro; Elva, who died in infancy, and Mabel Arnold, of Lizton.
He suffered a stroke of paralysis five years ago from which he never fully recovered. It had been his custom for the last three years to spend the winter months with his daughter Alma.
He died on December 25 at 9:30 am of heart trouble. He bade goodby to his family three weeks ago, and said he was not afraid to die, but sorry to leave his family.
Funeral service was held at the home of John Fowler, burial at the K of P cemetery, Lizton, conducted by his pastor, Rev SAP Reakes, of Lizton.
