James McCaustland, one of the early settlers of Quincy, Adams Co., died very suddenly at his home in San Jose, Calif. on Thursday Dec 11, 1902 and was buried in Shelby, Iowa on Dec 19. He had been afflicted for many years with rheumatism, which was the immediate cause of his death, it having reached his heart.
Deceased was born in County Tyrone, Ireland, Oct 7, 1822 and emigrated to America in 1846. He settled at Quincy in 1855, in 1876 moved to Shelby, Iowa where he lived until 1899, when he moved to San Jose, Calif.

In Wisconsin, he married Luannia Winn and of the eleven children born to them seven survive. The two youngest Myrtle E and Daniel E accompanied their mother on her sad day from San Jose and the oldest son Elmer J came from Ithaca, New York to Shelby to attend the funeral.

The funeral was at the house of John S Potter, an old time friend and neighbor. A short and very appropriate service was conducted by Rev Irwin and the body was followed to its last resting place by many friends and old neighbors.
