| 22205 | I67 | Strickland | Solomon | Between 1735 and 1742 | Aft 1818 | 0 | In Bruce Howard's book about the Pace family, he notes (pg 137-138) that Solomon and Amy resided at his plantation on Turkey Creek for many years and (this) is where most, if not all of their children were born. The area where they lived was near the Franklin, Wake, Nash county line, or in the southwestern part of Nash County. They were already living on their farm when the new county was created and in the year 1778 he applied for and received a grant for land which adjoined his farm: Nash County Grant Book, Caveat no. 256 Solomon Strickland enters 250 acres of Land in Nash County, on both sides of the great branch of Turkey Creek above Barniby Barrons, Running so as to Include the Improvements he now lives on. 31st Dec. 1778. The family lived here until 1786, when they and some of his brothers loaded up their wagons, herded together their stock, and moved to the State of Georgia. Solomon sold his 700 acres of land for 100 pounds of gold and silver on November 4, 1786 to Stephen Young (Nash County, N.C. Deed book 1, p. 342). At the time they came to Georgia the parent county in which they settled was old Wilkes County, which was later broken up to form Elbert and others. Two of the brothers, Solomon and Jacob were in Elbert, and Isaac, Henry and Matthew in the lower part of Franklin, which in 1796 became Jackson County. Solomon during that same period purchased land in Jackson upon which he was taxed, although he physically resided in Elbert. In "Foxfire 7" edited by Paul F. Gillespie, 1982, Plate 12 (p 74) shows the 12 original members of the Lystra Primative Baptist Church as Timothy Carrington (Minister), Winifred Carrington, Solomon Strickland, Amy Strickland, David Robertson, Amelia Sorrells, William Davis, John Mearon(?), Mary Mearon, Pony(?) Williford, Nancy Williford, and Juda Williford, and was dated 15 January 1803. Howard Parham, the only remaining member of the Lystra Primitive Baptist Church, recounted its history (p 71): "The church was first built over in Oglethorpe County (GA) across the river. It was and still is a Primitive Baptist church. The people moved over to this place and this building was built in 1820. They built it close to a spring so they wouldn't have to dig a well and close to water for a baptisizing hole. My granddaddy got baptized [in that hole] with ice on the banks. He wanted to be baptized then and didn't want to wait till the water got warm. [After they moved] they changed the name from Skull Shoals to Lystra. So this building is about 150 years old. They were still fighting Indians when the church was established. At that time, there was no community and no roads. The most members they ever had, according to my records, was fifty. They only have one member now and that's me. They had slave members there and a balcony set up for the slaves. They didn't sit down there with the (white) people. Once they turned a slave out for beating his wife. The women sat on one side of the church and the men sat on the other. [They] always did that. They had foot washings up until they quit having services. Every year in August they had communion and foot washings. We always called that Attracted Meeting. We had a three-day meeting in August and foot washings on one day." In PACE OUR COLONIAL ANCESTORS, Bruce Howard wrote that in 1805, the clerk of the land office in Jackson County, who apparently had a keen eye and a bit of a sense of humor, listed Solomon, Senior as "Solomon (Bit nose) Strickland." This was because he has apparently got into a knock down, no holds barred fight with someone around this time period, and that someone may have got the better of him and bit a plug out of his nose and probably broke some bones (p 139). Before leaving Elbert County and moving into the easter portion of Jackson County (circa 1805), Solomon made a deed of gift to certain of his children, disposing of his wordly property. Howard speculates that "he was quite a rounder and a good hand at drinking his own whiskey...(and perhaps) thought he was about to die" Howard went on to note that he did not intend to leave the impression that Solomon was one of little morals...he was an educated and energetic man and a very successful planter of the well-to-do class in the South. This eastern portion of Jackson was severed in 1811 to form Madison County. Solomon ratified the earlier gifts he made in Elbert County in 1813, while living in Madison County. The deeds of gift are reproduced below: Deed Book A, p. 83 Georgia Madison County Be it known that I Solomon Strickland of the County & State aforesaid did on the fourteenth day of July in the year of our Lord Eighteen hundred and four make and execute an Instrument of writing commonly called a deed of Gift wherein I gave to my children, to wit: Ephraim Strickland, Unah Thompson, Barshebah Strickland, Linny Strickland (now Linny Ware), Ezekiel Strickland and Nancy Strickland Certain property therein named which is of record in the Clerks office of the Superior Court of Elbert County all of which property in and by the said deed of Gift they were to be possessed of after the death of myself and my wife Amy Strickland, having previously given to each of my other children, to wit: Henry Strickland, Barnabus Strickland, Milly Higginbotham, Hardy Strickland, Solomon Strickland, Polly Carter and Jinny Bridges, as Sum equal to that Given to each of those named in the aforesaid deed of Gift.

| 22206 | I1145 | Strickland | Solomon | Between 1766 and 1770 | 1843 | 0 | An article entitled "Solomon Strickland of Henry County, Georgia" by Nancy Cornell appeared in Vol 6, No 2 of the STRICKLAND SCENE newsletter, and is summarized below: Solomon Strickland lived in Wilkes County, Georgia in 1790 per the County Tax Digest. He put in a claim for stolen horses in Elbert County, GA in 1802. In 1804, he was given land in Elbert County by his father. Though this "Deed of Gift" is no longer extant, it is referred to in a later deed written by his father in Madison County, Georgia in 1813. Solomon was still in Elbert County when he drew land in Baldwin county in the 1807 Georgia Land Lottery. He was one of the first settlers in old Randolph County (now Jasper County, GA). The earliest record of him in Jasper is in May 1808, six months after the county was formed from a part of Baldwin County. This record, titled "Stock Marks" includes Solomon Stricklin. By July 1812, Solomon has become a Justice of the Inferior Couty. Military records at the Georgia Department of Archives & History shows Solomon served as a Private in Capt. Joshua Hagerty's Company in November 1813. In Wiley A. Clements booklet, published 1921, and titled HISTORY OF HENRY COUNTY MAY 1821-1921 states: "Among the very first to come to the County were John Glenn, Solomon Strickland, and Wiley Heflin who settled on the Towaliga River..." In HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS OF GEORGIA, Rev. George White's brief description of Henry County includes a list of the first Superior Court Grand Jurors and includes S. Strickland. From a list of the "Members of the General Assemblies of Georgia, 1777-1958," We find that Solomon Strickland was elected the first Representative of Henry County in the year 1822. He served this two year term alone, and in 1825 was elected along with John Griffin, evidently to fill a vacancy left by Thomas C. Bennine. Military Records at the Georgia Department of Archives & History list Solomon Strickland as a Colonel in Henry County from July 17, 1823 to April 20, 1824. For the rest of his life, he was referred to by many as Col. Strickland. Wiley Jones James, Solomon's grandson, in a letter dated November 27, 1919, gave the following general description of the family: "The Strickland family are scattered everywhere and all claim to be kin-folks. They cannot be excelled for bravery, but are not as strident and cautious (as others). Politically, they were Whigs, and hated to be defeated on anything and loved their ancestry. Their religion was divided between the Baptist and Methodist. My Mother had three brothers who were missionary Baptist Ministers. Their names were Barnabus, Ephraim and Bedford." It is apparent Solomon was a fairly wealthy man, and one who was respected by his acquantances. During this period of time, a mans wealth was primarily judged by the amount of land and the number of slaves he owned. In the Henry County 1831 Tax Digest, Solomon is listed as owning 14 slaves and 500 acres of 2nd quality land on the Towliga River, as well as owning one "big" carriage. Not everyone owned a carriage, so perhaps this is an indication of his wealth. The 500 acres was his "home" or main plantation, and he also owned an additional 1500 acres of third quality land on the Towliga River. The 1837 Henry County Tax Digest states Solomon still owned 500 acres on the Towaliga River, and 11 slaves. No record has been found of Solomon's marriage to the mother or mothers of his children. Traditon says he married (1) Frances Diamond and (2) Peggy Diamond. His wife was still living in 1830, but died sometime prior to 5 June 1839, when Solomon married again to Hulda Ann Hardwick of Butts County, GA. Solomon and Hulda had no children. In the Pace Society of America quartertly bulletin, No. 132, dated June 2000, Jane Shelton Strickland writes that Solomon m. Frances Diamond who experienced travail of her husband who fathered a child by her niece, Margaret (Peggy). This is documented in Jasper County, GA Court Records. The records in the Henry County Ordinary's office shows that on September 4, 1837, Solomon Strickland applied for guardianship of his grandchildren, and it was approved by the court. He was "hereby appointed Guardian of the persons and property of Frances Eliza, Mary Ann Paulina, Nancy Susan, Enoch Solomon and Barnabus Bedford Solomon, minors of Bedford Solomon, deceased." He had been granteded temporary guardianship March 30, 1837. Children not listed in his will but known to have been his children were: Barnabus Strickland and Nancy Ann James. Petitioners of a caveat against Solomon's will on May 9, 1844 were Elijah Strickland; John P. Buckalew and Darkas (Dorcas) his wife; Alfred Buffington (who married a Lavina Strickland), Barnabus Strickland; and John P. James and Nancy Ann, his wife.

Following this trouble, John moved his family to Orange. Dee Strickland moved back to Sabine County and married Luvenia Walker.

The younger children who attended the Wright school northeast of town, had, as usual, been dismissed at recess time and Luella and her little cousin, Katie Striffler, had started for home. Mr. Andrews, a neighbor, was coming to town with a load of baled hay and the little girls took hold of the back of the wagon box and trudged along behind. Soon after Luella went around to the side of the wagom and placed her school book which she had been carrying, upon the rig between the bales of hay. It slipped to the ground and she leaned forward to pick it up and must have fallen, for the hind wheel of the heavily laden wagon passed over her little head completely crushing the upper portion. One of her limbs was also broken and her foot crushed. Death was instantaneous. The man on the wagon had seen the little folks on the way home from school, but drove on unconscious of the awful accident which had happened, not hearing their voices on account of the rattle of the wagon passing over the hard ground. His first intimation that anything had gone wrong was when his attention was attracted by the cries of Katie who ran screaming to tell her mother what had happened. The accident took place almost directly in front of the homes of Samuel and Solomon Striffler, and the parents of the little girl were among the first to know the horrifying facts. Tenderly the tiny form was carried into the home which she had left so shortly before, but the little spirit had taken its flight. Anna Luella was the fifth child of Mr. and Mrs. Solomon Striffler, who reside one mile east and one and one-fourth miles north of town. She was six years old last October and an exceptionally sweet and intelligent little girl. She was born on the farm where her parent still reside and for almost a year she has attended the Wright school. The funeral services took place on Sunday morning in the Evangelical church, Rev. W. Bergey officiating. He preached from the text recorded in Psalms 16:6---"The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a godly heritage," and spoke many words of comfort to the grief striken family. He was assisted by Rev. J.W. Fenn. The pall bearers were four of the playmates of the little dead girl: Seva Withey, Ella Wallace, Hallie Spurgeon and Carrie Hurley. The floral tributes were profuse and very beautiful, the casket being completely hidden from view by flowers. The remains were interred in Elkland cemetery. Besides her parents, she leave three sisters, Alice, Alma and Edna; and three brothers, Frank, of Detroit, and Leonard and Louis. The sympathy of the entire neighborhood and village goes out to the stricken family in their deep sorrow over the sudden loss of their loved one.

We are called upon this week to announce the death of Christian Striffler, who passed away at this home, three miles east and one mile north of Cass City on Monday afternoon, February 6, 1911. Mr. Striffler had been in poor health for some time, but his condition was not alarming to his friends until a few days prior to his passing away. The end came peacefully and quietly, typical of the life the aged man had lived. Christian Striffler was born December 8, 1827 in Germany, and while yet a young man came with his parents to America to seek a livelihood in a foreign land. The family located at Lancaster, New York, at that time the home of his future wife, also. Mrs. Striffler, previous to her marriage, went to White Pigeon, Michigan. She was joined there by Mr. Striffler, where they were united in marriage July 3, 1856. Her maiden name was Mary ROMMEL. After their marriage they returned to Lancaster for seven years, when they again decided to make their home in Michigan, locating near Sturgis. In the year 1877 they came to Cass City where several of Mr. Striffler's brothers resided and soon after purchased the farm which is now the old homestead, and where together they have toiled for more than thirty years. By hard work they gradually converted the wilderness into a nice farm. Mr. Striffler ans his wife are loyal, consistent Christians, and members of the local Evangelical church. They were converted under the labors of Rev. Mueller and at that time united with the church of their choice. The house was blessed with eight children, two of them, Christian and Mrs. S.G. BENKELMAN preceding the father to the homeland. The remaining children are: Samuel W. of Argyle, William D., Mrs. Charles PATTERSON, Mrs. H.L. McDERMOTT, Solomon, and Mrs. Edward HELWIG, all of whom resided in this vicinity. One brother, John Striffler, of this place and sixteen grandchildren, also survive him. The funeral services were held at the Evangelical church Thursday afternoon at half past one o'clock, the pastor, Rev. J.A. Schweitzer officiating. The pall bearers were his three sons, Samuel, William, and Solomon; and three son-in-laws, H.L. McDERMOTT, Charles PATTERSON and Edward HELWIG. The interment was at Elkland cemetery.

May 11, 1888 From Salome Striffler, George's younger sister The men have been working near the river these two weeks, when the weather was so they could plow. Today they were sowing oats. Pete Burg helped mother with the garden. I let the deer out one evening and he ran around the house in the orchard and garden and tracked the garden all up. We got him back in. The report around is that Adam Benkelman was coming home. We were so glad to think they were going to be here again, then we were disappointed to hear it was only Minnie Burg's talk. It seems odd to not see you, with a book under your arm or in the morning see you come from upstairs. Mother wants to know how far it is from church, are are there any girls in your neighborhood? Your fat sister, "Baby Elephant Jumbo", Salome June 7, 1888 From Mary Striffler, cousin. to George at Lathrop, Delta County, Michigan I took dinner from Mrs. Weydemeyer yesterday and glad to learn that Home is in camp with you now. You mention you live in the most newsless part of the earth. It strikes me that you take on the habit of a hermit without much remonstrance. The second annual institue of the M.E. Sunday School convened at Cass City, June 5. We hear that Anna Peterson is dead. Eventually she died of after effects of operation to remove a tumor. Mr. Klump is expected to hold quarterly meetings in the German Church next Sunday. August 29, 1888 From Ella Wallace to George Do you not almost wish you were back here. We all miss you. I suppose you have long since found the squaw whom you proposed getting for a housekeeper during the summer. It is dull here. My naughty sister has not come home yet. I see Mary and Gus, but not often. I have been raising kittens all summer for the chivaree. I was out East for a drive the other night and I really pitied Sam when I saw how far he had to walk. September 11, 1888 From I. A. Fritz to George Would like to know how you like the north woods. Do you have a church, if you do not, how do you pass your Sabbaths. I saw Mr. Weydemeyer and he said we are thankful to receive your assessment. Ben McCune will leave for conference. The assessment plan has worked very well. Of course, you have heard that I was married. Yes, I have settled down and am happy we have gone to housekeeping in the rooms in connection with my office. She is a stranger to you. I first met her in Carsonville, 3 year ago. Her name was Anderson. Dr. Blair left this morning for his home in Canada. October 19, 1888 From his parents, John and Mary (Benkelman) Striffler You say you might go West. I don't know why you would, in the winter, and get lost in one of the blizzards. Got a letter from John Wheelock, he says hundreds of people coming every day looking for work and can't find any. Wages are low, work scarce. D. Morrison told me the same the other day that his boys writes the same. Mrs. Benkelman said that Denver, Col is full of people looking for work. We just thrased last week bout 560 bu. of wheat, 800 bu. Oats and 121 bu. buckwheat on the V. Sta. Some of our Pear trees was loaded so that the limbs bent to the ground and such an apple crop. You didn't tell us how much you get a month or how you get your pay. JOHN STRIFFLER I would expect you home pretty soon now if you're talking of going West. It is hard to have only one boy that is big enough to help his Father and him way off working for other folks when there is so much to do at home. Of course, if you can do lots better, I don't want to say come home. MA November 18, 1888 William Bien, friend and future brother-in-law What are you doing in upper Michigan? Is it the homestead we spoke of? The Biography below, of George Albert, is copied from "History of Michigan" by Charles Moore, Volume IV, The Lewis Publishing Company, Chicago, 1915 https://archive.org/stream/historyofmichiga04moor/historyofmichiga04moor_djv GEORGE A. STRIFFLER. He whose name initiates this paragraph is not only one of the representative business men and landholders of Tuscola county but is a native son of the county and a scion of one of its best known and most honored pioneer families. Here he was reared and here he has found abundant scope for personal achievement along normal lines of enterprise. He is the leading implement dealer at Cass City, one of the thriving and attractive towns of this section of the state, and as a citizen and business man he is well upholding the honors of a name that has been most prominently linked with the development and upbuilding of Tuscola county. George Albert Striffler was born on a pioneer farm in Elkland township, Tuscola county, Michigan, on the 16th of March, 1864, and the place of his nativity is one mile east and one mile north of Cass City, his present place of residence. He is a son of John and Mary (Benkelman) Striffler, the former of whom was born near Lancaster, Erie county, New York, of German lineage, and the latter of whom was born in the kingdom of Wurtemburg, Germany. The father was reared to manhood in the old Empire state and there he learned the trade of carpenter. In 1859 he came to Michigan and numbered himself among the pioneers of Tuscola county, where he obtained a tract of wild land, in Elkland township, and where he instituted the reclamation of a farm of forty acres, in the meanwhile finding much requisition for his services as a carpenter, at Cass City and other points in this section. He was numbered among the very early settlers of the county and he erected, for William Clark, the first frame store-building in Cass City, besides having done much other important work tending to advance the upbuilding and progress of the village and county. He was identified with lumbering operations for a number of years and threw himself fully into the strenuous work involved in the development of a new country. He has ever commanded inviolate place in popular esteem and he is today honored as one of the sterling pioneer citizens of the county in which he has long maintained his home and in which he has served in various township offices. He was born March 15, 1833, and his devoted wife, who was born May 22, 1839, was summoned to the life eternal on the 4th of May, 1913; he is now living retired in Cass City. Of the seven children, six are still living: Emaline is the wife of Archibald Mark, and they reside on the old Striffler homestead; George A., of this review, was the next in order of birth; Salome, who resides in Cass City, is the widow of William Bein; Miss Martha has supervision of the domestic economies of her father's home, in Cass City; Esther is the wife of William R. Kaiser, of this place; and David A. is now a resident of Columbus, Georgia. George A. Striffler was reared on the homestead farm and well recalls the conditions and incidents of the pioneer days in Tuscola county. After attending the district school he continued his studies in the public schools of Cass City, and he was about thirty-two years of age when he went to the city of Detroit, to learn the trade of steam-fitting, in the Michigan Central car shops. He completed his apprenticeship and then returned to Cass City, where he has since been successfully engaged in the implement business, as the successor of his cousin, Jacob H. Striffler, who founded the enterprise many years ago, so that it is the oldest business of its kind in Tuscola county, even as it is the largest in Cass City, with equipment and facilities of the best type. The original firm was J. H. Striffler & Company, and the present firm was first Striffler & McDermott and is now composed of George A. Striffler and Charles E. Patterson. The firm deals in all kinds of farm implements and machinery as well as in buggies, carriages and wagons, the trade of the concern being widely disseminated and its reputation being of the highest. Mr. Striffler has recently completed in Cass City a handsome and thoroughly modern house of twelve rooms, the same being the family home and one of the most attractive in the village, even as it is one of the most hospitable,a center of much of the social activity of the community. An appreciable part of the timber utilized in the erection of this building was taken from land owned by Mr. Striffler and is of growth that has been made since the disastrous forest fires which swept this section in 1871. Mr. Striffler himself found satisfaction in assisting in the sawing of the logs into the lumber and shingles for his fine new residence. Like other representatives of the family Mr. Striffler stands exponent of progressiveness and public spirit, and he is one of the loyal and liberal citizens of his native county. He was a Republican until the formation of the Progressive party, in 1912, when he transferred his allegiance to the new organization. He has not been ambitious for public office but has served as township treasurer. He is affiliated with the local organization of the Knights of the Maccabees, and his wife, who is a leader in the social life of the community, is a member of the Woman's Literary and Study Club, besides being a devoted communicant of the Protestant Episcopal church. In the year 1900 Mr. Striffler wedded Miss Cora Belle Home, of Manitowoc, Wisconsin, where she was born and reared, and they have one son, Ervine Albert, who was born in Cass City, on the 27th of March, 1906. Cass City Chronicle Friday, October 18, 1940 Page Four Mr. and Mrs. W.R. KAISER of Detroit, David STRIFFLER of Columbus, Georgia and Miss Martha STRIFFLER were Sunday guests at the G.A. STRIFFLER home. All the guests returned to Detroit Sunday evening. David STRIFFLER returned to Cass City on Tuesday and is spending the week with his brother, G.A. STRIFFLER, and other relatives. Miss Martha, who has spent a few weeks with her sister, Mrs. KAISER, in Detroit, returned to Cass City with her brother Tuesday. Cass City Chronicle Friday, July 13, 1945 Page One G.A. Striffler Died Here Friday At Age of 81 Years Conducted an Implement Business in Cass City For 45 Years George Albert Striffler, retired business man of Cass City, passed away at his home in the village on Friday morning, July 6. He was 81 years of age. Born in Elkland township, the son of John and Mary Striffler, on March 16, 1864, he had spent the greater portion of his life in this community. Mr. Striffler entered the business ranks of Cass City as a partner of the late J.H. Striffler, pioneer implement dealer here, on Nov. 1, 1899. The business was conducted under the name of J.H. Striffler & Co. for one year when J.H. Striffler sold his interest to the late Hector L. McDermott and the firm name was changed to Striffler & McDermott. This partnership continued for 12 years. From the time Mr. Striffler conducted the business under his own name until Dec. 29, 1944, when because of failing health he sold his holdings to Copeland & Munro, he had been in business here for 45 years. Mr. Striffler served the village as trustee, was village president for two years, and township treasurer on two different occasions. He was a past master of Tyler Lodge, F. & A.M., a member of the Cass City Community club and the Michigan Implement Dealers' association, and belonged to two hunting clubs, the Canada Creek Ranch Hunting club near Atlanta and the Lost Lake Woods club near Lincoln. The deceased is survived by his widow, the former Cora Belle Clark, whom he married on Nov. 29, 1900, at Manitowac, Wis., and a son, Irvine Striffler, of Marysville, Ohio. A brother, David Striffler, of Columbus, Ga., and a sister, Mrs. W. R. Kaiser, of Detroit also survive. Funeral services were conducted at the Presbyterian church by Rev. Melvin R. Vender, the pastor, Sunday afternoon.

| 22300 | I3028 | Striffler | Jacob | 31 Mar 1819 | 24 Sep 1895 | 0 | Supervisor of Elkland Township from 1888 through 1891, and President of Cass City in the last years of the 19th century. (Source: Peck) Bonnie Margaret Jacobs, in her 1981 unpublished manuscript, wrote that Jacob and his brother John Striffler "decided they'd join the migration west and they had heard of the opening territory of Michigan and the potentially good farm land there. Sight unseen, they bought land for two farms at $2 per acred and set out with their families for their new home in 1859....the trip was reasonably easy the first part of the way. They could catch a boat from Buffalo to the Michigan shores and from there, wagon on to their new land....they found the forest so dense that there was no way to get to the land they had purchased. Disgusted and disappointed, they were prepared to return to Lancaster. But the men in Watrousville [now Caro] advised they not to be so foolish. It was good farm land---once the trees were harvested and a part of each land sale seems to have included a provision that the price of the land did not include the pine that stood on it. Lumbering rights were held by large lumbering companies and the Strifflers could expect to be able to establish their homes by the next spring. So the two young families remained in Watrousville for the winter. Fortunately as well as being experienced farmers, the men were accomplished coopers. So they supported themselves by the making of barrels and buckets through the winter and finally were able to get thier land the next summer." (pp. 151, 152, and Jacobs cites both the "Memoirs of John A. Benkelman," along with interviews with Elsie Buehrly Anthes, Leonard Striffler and Mrs. Ben Schwegler). He and Louisa were charter members of the Evangelical United Brethren Church in Cass City. Cass City Enterprise September 27, 1895 About midnight, Monday, Jacob Striffler, living two miles east and north of town, breathed his last. He had resided here since 1860, and labored hard to make fruitful what was then a wilderness, not without succes. The funeral took place yesterday at the Evangelical Church, Rev. C.W. Ross officiating and being assisted by Rev. J.W. Fenn. The pall bearers were from among his associates and were also pioneers. The attendance was large and the services impressive. Deceased was born March 31, 1918 at Kirrberg, Germany (formerly France) and fell asleep in Jesus at his home September 24, 1895, aged 76 years, 5 months, and 23 days. In 1830 he came with his parents to America and located near Buffalo, NY, he moved to Watrousville, Mich in 1859, and he came her one year later. Early in life he converted to God, became a member of the Evangelical Church, lived a devoted Christian life and was true until called from labor to reward. He also served in a capacity of a class-leader for many years. Mr. Striffler leaves a sorrowing wife, two sons and two daughter (two sons and two daughters precededd him to the better land), three brothers, one sister and a large circle of friends. May God grant all a happy reunion in heaven. (Transcribed by Melinda McLemore Strong, Spring 2007) |
