The deceased was born in Connecticut, near the seashore, April 9th, 1782. He removed with his parents while yet a child, into the State of Vermont, where he grew to the estate of manhood, engaging in agricultural pursuits upon the Green Mountain slopes. hi the spring of 1805, having attained his majority, he with some associates, was seized with the emigration fever, and they took their journey westward in search of a better country. He and some of his kinsman finally settled in the town of Richland, Oswego County, near what is known as the Col. Meacham Hall, where they chopped and cleared a patch of ground and built a log cabin, planted some crops, and in the fall returned to their homes and Vermont. On the 6th of December of the same year, he was married to Adah Harmon. In the spring of 1806, himself and wife, in company with some others, returned to their new home in the wilderness, as Oswego County at that time was all a howling wilderness, boasting a population of five families and three townships. He remained in the town of Richland until 1816, when he removed to the town of Ellisburg, Jefferson County, where he bought and cleared a farm and built a house, in which he lived until his death. He was the father of twelve children, eleven of whom grew up to be men and women. Seven are still living, and six of them were present at the funeral, which was largely attended at the old family residence, on the 18th. About forty grandchildren and a large number of great-grandchildren are still living, scattered over118 the States and Canada. Four sons and three daughters are still living. The sounds are William E. and Joel H., both living in Ellisburg; Timothy and Dr. Judson, of Syracuse. The daughters are Mrs. John Meacham, of Pulaski; Mrs. Willard Salisbury, of Belleville, New York; Mrs. Selina Williams, of Medford, Ontario. And thus has closed a long and eventful life. Having finished his life mission, he has gone to his reward. His naturally strong mind continued perfectly clear, until within a few hours of his death. He was able to look back over almost a hundred years of the worlds history. | Brewster, Ephraim (I19643)

| 16208 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, April 29, 1886 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Boylston - Martin Moore, a cousin of Dewitt Moore, committed suicide on Thursday of last week, by hanging himself with a rope attached to a tree in a small piece of woods back of Dewitt's house. The deceased had been subject to insanity for a number of years and has been twice to the asylum. For a year past he has been considered sane enough to remain at home. He leaves a wife and three children. His wife has not lived with him for some time. The funeral services were held at the Wesleyan Church on Sunday, April 25. A large concourse of people was present. The affair created a great excitement in the neighborhood where the act was committed. Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, April 29, 1886 Sandy Creek News - Sandy Creek, New York - Suicide of Martin Moore - On Friday Martin Moore committed suicide on the farm of D. C. Moore, about three miles east of here in the town of Boylston. The suicide is attributed to poor health and insanity, which had troubled him more or less ever since he was 15 years old. He had been in Utica asylum for treatment and had been confined in the county asylum twice and had only been released last fall. Since then he had not lived with his family, which had scattered, but had lived among his friends and relatives. For a month or so he had been stopping with a cousin, Mr. D. C. Moore. On Friday morning he was about his usual and about eight o’clock when he was last seen, Mr. Moore left him at work in the barn, while he went into the field. About 11 o’clock a man came to purclia.se some potatoes and Mr. D. C. Moore told him that he would find Martin in the bam, who would get them for him, but he could not be found. When Mr. Moore came up to dinner he was still missing. Mr. Moore’s suspicious being aroused he found on investigation that a rope which usually hung in the bam, was missing. After going to the residence of Palmer Cross, a brother-in-law of Martin Moore’s and failing to find him there a thorough search was begun for him. He was found in the woods about a quarter of a mile from the house suspended in a tree about 20 feet from the ground and in such a maimer that if there had been any foliage on the tree it is not at all likely that he would have been discovered. It seems that he had tied a rope about his neck with a common slipknot; then threw the other end of the rope over a limb and tied it to his left arm. The body was left in a tree and Coroner Caldwell of Pulaski sent for. But he was in New York, and about night the body was taken down and conveyed to the house of Palmer Cross. The funeral took place from the Wesleyan church in Boylston and was largely attended. The deceased was 40 years of age and leaves a wife and three children. | Moore, Martin E. (I67987)

| 16209 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, April 29, 1886 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Died - In Utica, April 20, 1886, Ezra Pride, aged 71 years, 10 months and 16 days. Another of the old landmarks is gone. Mr. Pride, in his early boyhood lived in South Richland, where L. Nicholson does now, that was his father's home. In September, 1837, at the age of 23, he married Miss Octavia Root, a lady of loveliness of character, and of superior intellect. They lived where L. Brown does now, near Holmesville on the farm that for about a half a century has been known as the Pride farm. To them were born three daughters, Mrs. J. N. Cloyes, of Utica, Mrs. J. S. Emery and Mrs. John Douglass, of Holmesville, and two sons, J. F. Pride, of Pulaski, and J. W. Pride, living in a distant part of the state. In August, 1871 the farm passed into the hands of the elder son, and Mr. and Mrs. Pride removed to Utica. In the following February, Mrs. Pride died, and her remains were brought to South Richland for interment in the family burial lot. It seems as though such as Mrs. Octavia Pride can ill be spared, but "He who sees the end from the beginning" does right. Later, Mr. Pride married a widow, of Utica, with whom he lived a few years, when she died, leaving him a widower a second time. A few years ago he married Mrs. Minerva Rockfellow, a former resident of South Richland, who still survives him. His funeral was held in Utica, and his remains were brought here and interred. His children, relatives and neighbors met at the depot and accompanied the dead to his last resting place. Mr. Pride was a useful member of society and was looked up to by his neighbors. He was for some time chorister of the Baptist church choir, and his daughter, Amelia, was organist. He has a long time been an invalid, and his death was not entirely unlooked for. Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, April 29, 1886 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - South Richland - The remains of Ezra Pride were brought to Holmesville this afternoon and deposited in the cemetery east of Champlain's Corners, where all the Pride's are buried.

| 16210 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, April 30, 1874 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Casket - Weed - In Richland, April 1874, Nancy Weed, aged _ years. Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, May 7, 1874 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Obituary - In Richland April 21, 1874, Nancy Weed, aged 87 years. The deceased was born January 5th, 1787 in Suffield, Connecticut. In early life she removed with her parents to Pawlet, Vermont where they remained until 1807, when they came to this place. Her father, Deacon Thaddeaus Harmon was one of the first Deacons of the Congregational church in this place and was present at its organization in Pawlet, Vermont before the colonists came to this state. In 1811 she married Deacon Nehemiah S. Weed, a name honored in the memory of men and the history of the church, for his devoted, earnest and benevolent life. In May 1815, she united by profession of faith with the Congregational church of this place. Conscientious, devoted, exemplary, her life has been one of pre-eminent prayerfulness, no press of care, duty or of labor could make her forget or neglect the hour of her secret devotion. Her relations to God, her creator and redeemer, constituted the paramount interests of her life. The very anxieties that sometimes beclouded her peace showed only more clearly that the fact that her whole soul, every thought and energy given to the duty of God. The text chosen by herself for her funeral discourse was taken from the words of Job, "I know that my redeemer liveth." This was the silent song of the heart in all the steps of her earthly pilgrimage. Above the troubled waters of death it sounded the notes of a joyful victory at last, and the soul that shrunk from the shadow and the chill as it approached the dark valley found even in its darkness the brightness of an eternal presence; its faith realized, my redeemer liveth. | Harmon, Nancy (I63492)

| 16213 | Newspaper Obituary - Thursday, April 4, 1861 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Died - In this town, March 14th, of cancer, Mrs. Esther E., wife of Lewis C. Clark, aged 44 years. Sister Clark became the subject of saving grace at an early age, and soon united with the M. E. Church, of which she continued a faithful member for 29 years, when in holy triumph she was called to join the church, triumphant above.

Her name will live like sweet perfume in the household, in the community and in the church of God.

Jones, aged 32 years. The deceased was born in the town of Richland; was married at the age of twenty-two; became the mother of three interesting boys, two of whom still survive to lament more keenly in mature years their irreparable loss. Being rational only at intervals it is impossible to know the extent of her sufferings. The prompt attendance of physicians and efforts of affectionate friends and neighbors all proved unavailing. The sympathy of the entire community in connection with the bereavement and obsequies called forth the deepest gratitude from the deeply afflicted husband. Quite a number of friends besides the father, mother and mother-in-law of the deceased, witnessed the extinguishment of the vital spark. By request of friends, Rev. W. C. Johnson made a brief address and offered prayer as we all stood in the presence of death. The funeral service was one of marked interest. Gathering at the residence, remarks and prayer were offered by the before mentioned, W. C. Johnson, and a large number of the neighbors accompanied to the house of the parents of the deceased, in Mexico. The discourse was delivered by Rev. J. H. McGahen from John vii, 46, "Never man spoke like this pain." Thus we followed to an early grave the young mother, the faithful wife, the beloved daughter and the earnest friend.

She had picked but a short time when a violent thunderstorm came on and she made haste to reach the house. Her father and mother were anxiously watching her return, and when about 20 rods distant from the house, a tremendous crash was heard. Mr. and Mrs. Martin were partially stunned by the shop. On recovery, Mr. Martin looked for his daughter, and not seeing her, he at once past out of the house and around the corner of a fence that was New York, and there he found Mrs. Kelly dead, lying with her face to the ground. On examination, he found that the electric current struck her on her right breast, passing downward to the wrist of the right hand, and from that to her foot, tearing the shoe on that foot to _, the current then passing into the earth. My future remains shortly after they had been brought to the house, and could discover no discolorations except on her right cheek, which probably will was caused by her following face downward. It is supposed that the electric current was attracted by a new pan that she had in front of her with her left hand containing her berries. Mrs. Kelly was 22 years of age and leaves a husband and a little boy some eighteen months old, as well as an aged father and mother, upon whom this unexpected dispensation of Providence will fall was unusual severity. Mr. and Mrs. Martin, have now lost their all, as Elizabeth was the last and only child living up to this date of a family of 14 children. Redfield, August 13, 1870. | Martin, Elizabeth (I80532)
