OBITUARY.

Francis Dayton Tift.

The death of Francis Dayton Tift, formerly a resident of this city, occurred on Sunday at his home in Lakewood, Providence. Mr. Tift was 77 and was born in Jewett City, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Stephen Tift. His father was a native of North Stonington and his mother’s maiden name was Wilcox.

Mr. Tift followed the mill business and was a loom fixer, working in mills in Jewett City, Baltic, and this city where he lived at the falls. At one time he was foreman of the William M. Williams company at the Falls. Abut 35 years ago he lost part of one of his hands in a mill and after this he lived for a year in Kansas. For about the last 20 years his home has been in Providence.

Mr. Tift enlisted in Norwich for three months’ service in the war and served his enlistment with credit. He belonged to the G. A. R. and was particularly interested in its work.

Mr. Tift was the last of his family, but he is survived by his second wife who was Nellie Buckley, and whom he married about 20 years ago. His first wife’s name was Mack and she was a resident of Norwich. The only close relative of the deceased besides his wife is a nephew, F. P. Perkins, of Montville.

Frank and Anna were married in September 1859. After 33 years of marriage and the birth of their three children, Anna filed for divorce. The newspaper announcement reads as follows:

Anna J. Tift brought suit today in the same court [district court] asking for a divorce from her husband, Frank D. Tift. She states that she was married to defendant in September, 1859, but since the marriage he has been guilty of extreme cruelty to her, and four years ago abandoned her and has refused to live with her since.17

The divorce was granted later in 1892.18

Funeral.

John H. Tefft.

There was a large attendance Monday afternoon at the funeral of John H. Tefft, held at 2 o’clock from his home on West Town street. Rev. E. P. Phreaner, pastor of the First Methodist church, was in charge of the service. The comforting words of our God shall never pass away, he said. I think I can hear our friend say as an old sildier [sic], I have fought the good fight, I have kept the faith. Happy the one who can say I have won. This battle of life has its suffering side. God has added the bitter with the sweet. We are made holier by the trying, testing times. Even more than a soldier of his country he was a soldier of the Lord. His clear and true witness accorded with his life. He has finished his course and has won in the last fight through the Captain of his salvation. He has answered the last roll call and is in the ranks of those before the throne. In closing was read “Father, in Thy gracious keeping leave we now Thy loved one sleeping.”

The Hymns Lead, Kindly Light, and There’s a Holy and Beautiful City were sung by Miss Hazel Miller. The choice of flowers included from the family three beautiful forms; clusters of carnations and roses, lilies, purple and write [sic] iris, and pansies from relatives and friends. Members of the G. A. R. were in attendance and acted as bearers. Mr. Tefft served in the Civil war from 1861 to 1865, a member of the 18th Conn. Regiment.

Burial was in the family lot in Maplewood cemetery, where a committal service was read at the grave. The bearers were Henry Hovey, F C. Geer, H. L. Muzzy and James McKee. Those present from out of town were Mrs. Luella Tefft of New London, Mrs. Annie Chapman of Norwich, Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Tefft and Mr. and Mrs. Louis Tefft of Montville, David Groves of New Bedford, Mass., Mr. and Mrs. McLaughlin, Mrs. Sharkey and George Blake, all of Jewett City, Mrs. Hutchinson from Meriden.

Cornelia and Gilbert’s marriage apparently broke down and culminated in Cornelia leaving the household in scandalous fashion, as told in an article in The Chenango American:131

Elopement.—The Wife of Mr. Gilbert Crumb, a respectable citizen residing on Mechanic Street in this Village, yesterday eloped—if this term may be applied to an open, defiant departure from her husband’s house and home, with Mr. Oliver Holcomb, who is the husband of an excellent and handsome wife. Their present whereabouts we have not learned.

Mrs. Crumb was about 23 years of age—and she leaves behind her an only child, a little boy five years old. Holcomb had been a border in the house of Crumb. Many persons will remember him for his feats in wrestling.

We passed Crumb’s house this morning, he was disposing of his furniture preparatory to breaking up house keeping and removing. He looked, what indeed he is a wo begone, wretched man, whose cup of bitterness and affliction was full--and unto whom comfort and happiness were to be, henceforth, strangers.

As Mr. Crumb was always a kind and indulgent husband, this exhibition of criminal infidelity on the part of the lady can be accounted for only through the hardiness of the times, which makes hard cases of many people—or through that spirit of mutability to which feminality whether in a state of singularity or connubiality, is proverbially subject. --Norwich Reporter.

Ellen and Hiram are buried in Plain Township Cemetery, Bowling Green, Wood County, Ohio.130, 141

A biographical sketch, published just a year after his death and presented below, provides interesting details of his life, family, and his wife’s family.139

Hiram Cunning, deceased. Among the men who have been instrumental in the development of the rich resources of Wood county, the subject of this sketch held no unimportant position. He operated one of the model farms of Washington township, and was numbered among the popular citizens of that section. Born in Ridgefield township, Huron Co., Ohio, May 7, 1842, he was a son of Hiram and Keziah (Raymond) Cunning, with whom, at the age of twelve years, he came to Wood county. The schools of Washington township afforded him his educational privileges, and he remained on the home farm until twenty years of age.

After the breaking out of the Civil war, Mr. Cunning enlisted, August 9, 1862, at Tontogany, in the 111th, O. V. I., under Col. Bond and Capt. McGowen, of Perrysburg, and was mustered in at Toledo. He was placed on provost-guard duty, and after participating in a number of skirmishes was discharged at Columbus, Ohio, April 8, 1863. On returning to Wood county, he lived on his father’s homestead until 1865, when he purchased his late farm of eighty acres, which had been partly cleared, but which he greatly improved, setting out an orchard, and small fruit trees and shrubs; besides general farming, he also raised stock for his own use. In politics he voted the straight Republican ticket; served as school director two terms, and for a number of years was cemetery trustee. He affiliated with Walter A. Wood Post, No. 48, G. A. R. , of Tontogany, of which he was senior vice-commander; and also held membership with the K. O. T. M., Tent No. 147, of Tontogany. On August 23, 1896, Mr. Cunning died suddenly.

Mr. Cunning was married February 22, 1872, to Ella Tefft, a daughter of L. P. and Phoebe Ann (Adams) Tefft, and to them have come four children: Oreanna, born February 8, 1874, became the wife of S. I. Landers, an agriculturist of Plain township, Wood county, and died of consumption September 28, 1893; Hiram T. was born December 5, 1875; Flavilla was born March 13, 1879; and Irene Myrtle was born July 30, 1883. The three youngest children are still at home. On both the paternal and maternal sides Mrs. Cunning is descended from Gen. Greene, of Revolutionary fame. Her mother’s maiden name was Sprague, but as her father died when she was quite young, she took the name of Adams, that of her step-father, who was a descendant of President John Quincy Adams. She belonged to the Sprague family of New York. Mr. and Mrs. Tefft were married in May, 1851, and four children blessed their union—one who died in infancy; Florence G., who died while young; Lorin P., also deceased; and Mrs. Cunning, who was born in Perrysburg, Ohio, January 20, 1854. Her father was a member of the “Squirrel Hunters,” and during the Civil war manifested his patriotism by enlisting in the Union army as a member of the “hundred-day men.”
