Rock Springs Rocket no. 35 July 17, 1914
Death of Estimable Citizen
William James Kellogg, who departed this life on Thursday, July 16th, was born in Laramie April 27th, 1874. He came to this city about twenty years ago and was engaged in carpenter work on the City Hall which was then building, and later he became associated with the Rock Springs Lbr., of which he was manager for fourteen years.
He was married to Miss Evaline Parker June 17, 1903. In July of 1904, his health became poorly and he went to Salt Lake to consult a specialist, and his illness was diagnosed as diabetes, and since that time he had grown gradually worse. During the past few years his health changed from a seemingly improved condition to a serious condition and his friends marveled at his grit in getting around, when any one else not half so ill, would have lost courage. The almost total loss of his eye sight in the winter, was a sad complication in his illness.
In the past two weeks before his death, he had intervals of intense suffering and then would be out again the next day. Two days before his death he was out for an auto ride, but from that time on his suffering was intense until a merciful God called him to his rest at 7:30 a.m.
Deceased leaves a widow and a son Clyde, ten years old; a mother, Mrs. Geo. Biscom; three sisters, Mrs. J.H. Anderson, this city; Mrs. Harry Clark, Kemmerer; and Mrs. Harry Britton, Los Angeles, Calif., and four brothers, Robert, George, Sam and Howard.
Deceased was a member of lumberman’s order, known as the Hoo Roos, also the Knights Templas and Elks, and the latter will conduct the funeral services which will be held on Sunday afternoon from the Congregational church at 2 o’clock, Rev. F.C. Lewis preaching the sermon. Music will be furnished by the Elk’s Quartette.
Deceased, when in normal health, was one of the city’s most enthusiastic residents, boosting for the good of the community, and seeing things in a broad minded manner. His death will cause a genuine regret to all who knew and were associated with him.

Rock Springs Miner no. 29 July 18, 1914
WM. J. KELLOG ENTERS INTO REST
After an illness of nearly ten years duration from an incurable malady, Wm. J. Kellogg passed peacefully away at an early hour Wednesday morning. While everyone knew that his condition was critical, he had been about almost up to the last moment and his friends hoped that he might once more rally, as he had done so often in the past.
Mr. Kellogg was born in Laramie April 17, 1874 and had spent his entire life in this state. He came to Rock Springs in 1896 and for the first five years he worked at the carpenters trade in this city. In 1898 he became manager of the Rock Springs Lumber Co. which position he held up to the time of his death, although during the last few years he had been relieved of many of his active duties. Under his direction the company has had a most successful career and many of the best buildings in the town were erected under his supervision. On June 17th, 1903 he was married to Miss Eva Parker, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Parker, of this city, who is left with one son, Clyde, to mourn the loss of a kind husband and father.
About ten years ago Mr. Kellogg became a sufferer from diabetes and since that time he has traveled to all parts of the country and has consulted many eminent physicians in the hope of relief, but nothing could stay the ravages of the disease.
Mr. Kellogg was highly esteemed by the business men of Rock Springs by whom his loss will be sincerely mourned. He is survived bya mother and four brothers, George, Robert, Sam and Howard Kellogg, all of this city, and three sisters, Mrs. J.H. Anderson of Rock Springs; Mrs. Harry Clark, of Kemmerer; and Mrs. Harry Brittian, of Los Angeles.
The funeral services will be held at the Congregational church on Sunday afternoon at two o’clock, conducted by Rev. F.C. Lewis. Mr. Kellogg was a valued member of the B.P.O.E. and the K. of P. and each of these orders will attend the services in a body.
