| 13856 | True Republican, 15 June 1910 George E. Stafford, a resident of Sycamore and vicinity for over 59 years and widely known, died at his home on North California street on last Sunday night at about 11 o'clock. He had been feeble the last year or two, but was able to be out doors and was frequently on the streets. He did a little work in the hot sun in the garden on Friday and this affected him seriously. He took a short walk that evening, and when near his home, was suddenly taken with dizziness, fell over backward and struck his head with violence on the pavement. He was taken home at once.

He was a man of sound judgment, force and decision, and his good management and application to business resulted in the accumulation of a large property, which includes several hundred acres of DeKalb county land. In 1884 Mr. Stafford and family removed from Cortland to Sycamore, and here he had ever since made his home. He successfully dealt in live stock, being associated for some time with James Dayton of this city. Later he dealt extensively in western sheep. Mr. Stafford was married on November 17, 1858, in the town of Cortland, to Christina, daughter of Peter and Isabel Young. To this union were born two children who survive: Mrs. Emily Lattin and Frank G. Stafford. Mrs. George Stafford departed this life on June 9, 1903. Mrs. Lattin with her two daughters have been making their home with Mr. Stafford. The son resides with his wife in Sycamore, and has been engaged with his father in the livestock business. The only other member of the immediate family who is surviving is a brother, Dr. Isaac Stafford, a resident of Pony, Montana. George E. Stafford was respected for his good judgment and ability to secure results. He was a good neighbor and had many acquaintances and friends all over the county. The funeral services will be held this Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock at the home, Rev. F. W. Millar, officiating. The interment will be in Elmwood cemetery. | STAFFORD, George Edgar (I30781)

| 13866 | True Republican, 15 June 1910 George E. Stafford, a resident of Sycamore and vicinity for over 59 years and widely known, died at his home on North California street on last Sunday night at about 11 o'clock. He had been feeble the last year or two, but was able to be out doors and was frequently on the streets. He did a little work in the hot sun in the garden on Friday and this affected him seriously. He took a short walk that evening, and when near his home, was suddenly taken with dizziness, fell over backward and struck his head with violence on the pavement. He was taken home at once. Hemorrhages ensued, and he gradually failed to the end. George E. Stafford was born on September 22, 1831, and was therefore nearly 80 years of age. He was a native of Preston, Chenango county, N.Y., and a son of Isaac Stafford, a native of Vermont, who became a resident of DeKalb county, Ill. The son George arrived in Cortland township, this county, in 1857. At the age of 24 years he became the owner of a farm in that township. He was a man of sound judgment, force and decision, and his good management and application to business resulted in the accumulation of a large property, which includes several hundred acres of DeKalb county land. In 1884 Mr. Stafford and family removed from Cortland to Sycamore, and here he had ever since made his home. He successfully dealt in live stock, being associated for some time with James Dayton of this city. Later he dealt extensively in western sheep. Mr. Stafford was married on November 17, 1858, in the town of Cortland, to Christina, daughter of Peter and Isabel Young. To this union were born two children who survive: Mrs. Emily Lattin and Frank G. Stafford. Mrs. George Stafford departed this life on June 9, 1903. Mrs. Lattin with her two daughters have been making their home with Mr. Stafford. The son resides with his wife in Sycamore, and has been engaged with his father in the livestock business. The only other member of the immediate family who is surviving is a brother, Dr. Isaac Stafford, a resident of Pony, Montana. George E. Stafford was respected for his good judgment and ability to secure results. He was a good neighbor and had many acquaintances and friends all over the county. The funeral services will be held this Wednesday morning at 10 o'clock at the home, Rev. F. W. Millar, officiating. The interment will be in Elmwood cemetery. | STAFFORD, George Edgar (I30781)

| 13867 | True Republican, 3 February 1932 The Grim Reaper of Death has again claimed one of our most esteemed and respected ladies in his ever busy harvest of earthly souls. Many hearts were saddened to learn of the death of Mrs. Emily Lattin last Friday night at 11:15 o'clock at her home, corner of East Exchange and Walnut streets in this city. Mrs. Lattin is another of DeKalb county's early residents, whose life has formed a connecting link with the past and present history of this community. She has lived through the important decades, which, in passing, have witnessed those rapid changes, so prominent in the transformation of this part of the state from the pioneer region to the improved type of today's modern civilization. It is her type of sturdy and noble womanhood, which has made possible a greater DeKalb county and Sycamore a finer place in which to live. Mrs. Lattin was a lady of gracious attainment and modest refinement. She possessed many admirable traits of character. Her treatment of others was invariably characterized by her generous consideration. She had that tact and power to so transmit her kindliness of spirit and her sincerity of purpose to those about her, until her friendship became a most realistic and vital expression of her good will and sympathetic understanding of human nature. The hospitality of the Lattin home was fulfilled to the greatest measure of cordiality, imaginable. She was a home maker, mother, neighbor and friend, whose memory will be cherished by relatives and friends alike, as a sacred treasure and inspiration for years to come. She recognized the truth of universal brotherhood and individual obligation, and was most active to express her loyalty to her heart's belief. Failing health has compelled her to relinquish her interests outside of the home for some little time. About two years ago, the family realized that Mrs. Lattin's health was failing, and while everything that medical science and tender care could provide was done, the seriousness of her condition continued to assert itself. For the past seven months, she has gradually failed, though able to be about and enjoy visiting with her friends, until just a few days before the end came. Her two daughters, Mrs. Glen Thurston and Miss Frances Lattin have been most devoted and tender of their mother in her illness. Emily Stafford, daughter of George E. and Christine Young Stafford, pioneers of Chenango county, N. Y., was born July 2, 1860, and died January 29, 1932. Her life began on the Ohio Grove farm which she owned at the time of her death. This land has always been in the possession of the family since 1848, when the land was deeded from the government to Mrs. Lattin's grandfather, Peter Young. The family still retain the original deed, signed by James K. Polk, eleventh president of the United States. Miss Stafford received her education in the Sycamore schools. She lived in the parental home until she married. Her marriage to Charles A. Lattin of Sycamore was solemnized Oct. 10, 1883. Mr. and Mrs. Lattin settled on the Lattin farm, one mile west of town. Three children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Lattin: Sadie, who died in 1890 at the age of four years; Zaida, wife of Glen Thurston of Ohio Grove, and Georgia Frances, kindergarten teacher in the Sycamore public schools, both survive. Mr. and Mrs. Thurston make their home on the farm where Mrs. Lattin was born in Ohio Grove. Miss Frances has made her home with her mother, and their congenial companionship and unselfish devotion, each to the other has filled their home with many pleasant and memorable associations. Two grandchildren, Miss Dorothy Thurston of Chicago and Donald Thurston of Ohio Grove, also survive. An only brother, Frank Stafford, passed away six years ago. Mr. and Mrs. Lattin resided on the Lattin farm until 1901, when they built a home on East Exchange street and moved to Sycamore. Mrs. Lattin has made her home in this same residence since that time, only for an interim of years, when she was called upon to care for her father and mother in the sunset of their lives. For the past twenty years Mrs. Lattin has resided in this home where she passed away. Mrs. Lattin was a member of the Universalist church and was never happier than in her church affiliation and activity. The funeral services were held from the late home Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, Dr. H. S. Roblee officiating. Mrs. Cliffe sang beautifully, "That City , Foursquare" and "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere." Interment was in the family lot in Elmwood cemetery. Many from out-of-town came to pay their last tribute to this estimable lady. This number included Mrs. Gordon Hicks and Mrs. Winthrop Miller, both of Chicago, Mrs. Julius Ingwersen of Milwaukee, Mr. and Mrs. Pillinger of Lombard, Mrs. Will McGirk of Graf, Iowa., Mr. and Mrs. Tom Robertson, Mr. and Mrs. Will Whitney, Mrs. Ann Robertson, Charles Robertson, Mrs. D. J. O'Brien and Miss Grace Vincent, all of DeKalb, and Miss Olive Bowman of Hinckley.  | STAFFORD, Emily E. (I30783)

She has lived through the important decades, which, in passing, have witnessed those rapid changes, so prominent in the transformation of this part of the state from the pioneer region to the improved type of today's modern civilization. It is her type of sturdy and noble womanhood, which has made possible a greater DeKalb county and Sycamore a finer place in which to live. Mrs. Lattin was a lady of gracious attainment and modest refinement. She possessed many admirable traits of character. Her treatment of others was invariably characterized by her generous consideration. She had that tact and power to so transmit her kindliness of spirit and her sincerity of purpose to those about her, until her friendship became a most realistic and vital expression of her good will and sympathetic understanding of human nature. The hospitality of the Lattin home was fulfilled to the greatest measure of cordiality, imaginable. She was a home maker, mother, neighbor and friend, whose memory will be cherished by relatives and friends alike, as a sacred treasure and inspiration for years to come. She recognized the truth of universal brotherhood and individual obligation, and was most active to express her loyalty to her heart's belief. Failing health has compelled her to relinquish her interests outside of the home for some little time. About two years ago, the family realized that Mrs. Lattin's health was failing, and while everything that medical science and tender care could provide was done, the seriousness of her condition continued to assert itself. For the past seven months, she has gradually failed, though able to be about and enjoy visiting with her friends, until just a few days before the end came. Her two daughters, Mrs. Glen Thurston and Miss Frances Lattin have been most devoted and tender of their mother in her illness. Emily Stafford, daughter of George E. and Christine Young Stafford, pioneers of Chenango county, N. Y., was born July 2, 1860, and died January 29, 1932. Her life began on the Ohio Grove farm which she owned at the time of her death. This land has always been in the possession of the family since 1848, when the land was deeded from the government to Mrs. Lattin's grandfather, Peter Young. The family still retain the original deed, signed by James K. Polk, eleventh president of the United States. Miss Stafford received her education in the Sycamore schools. She lived in the parental home until she married. Her marriage to Charles A. Lattin of Sycamore was solemnized Oct. 10, 1883. Mr. and Mrs. Lattin settled on the Lattin farm, one mile west of town. Three children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Lattin: Sadie, who died in 1890 at the age of four years; Zaida, wife of Glen Thurston of Ohio Grove, and Georgia Frances, kindergarten teacher in the Sycamore public schools, both survive. Mr. and Mrs. Thurston make their home on the farm where Mrs. Lattin was born in Ohio Grove. Miss Frances has made her home with her mother, and their congenial companionship and unselfish devotion, each to the other has filled their home with many pleasant and memorable associations. Two grandchildren, Miss Dorothy Thurston of Chicago and Donald Thurston of Ohio Grove, also survive. An only brother, Frank Stafford, passed away six years ago. Mr. and Mrs. Lattin resided on the Lattin farm until 1901, when they built a home on East Exchange street and moved to Sycamore. Mrs. Lattin has made her home in this same residence since that time, only for an interim of years, when she was called upon to care for her father and mother in the sunset of their lives. For the past twenty years Mrs. Lattin has resided in this home where she passed away. Mrs. Lattin was a member of the Universalist church and was never happier than in her church affiliation and activity. The funeral services were held from the late home Monday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock, Dr. H. S. Roblee officiating. Mrs. Cliffe sang beautifully, "That City , Foursquare" and "Beautiful Isle of Somewhere." Interment was in the family lot in Elmwood cemetery. Many from out-of-town came to pay their last tribute to this estimable lady. This number included Mrs. Gordon Hicks and Mrs. Winthrop Miller, both of Chicago, Mrs. Julius Ingwersen of Milwaukee, Mr. and Mrs. Pillinger of Lombard, Mrs. Will McGirk of Graf, Iowa., Mr. and Mrs. Tom Robertson, Mr. and Mrs. Will Whitney, Mrs. Ann Robertson, Charles Robertson, Mrs. D. J. O'Brien and Miss Grace Vincent, all of DeKalb, and Miss Olive Bowman of Hinckley.  | STAFFORD, Emily E. (I30783)
