| Obituary - Jerome W. Bryant passed away
at his home in Sullivan, Pa. at 9:30 p.m., Sunday, March 28, 1926. Death
was due to a complication of diseases from which he had suffered since
October. He was born in 1850. The eldest of four children of the late William
and Lois Richmond Bryant. He passed the entire seventy six years of his
life on the farm where he was born. In 1903 he was united in marriage with
Miss Stella Barnard of Rushville NY, by whom he is survived; also one brother,
Isaac, of Mansfield survives. He was an active and faithful member of the
Elk Run church, with which he had been associated many years. He was interested
in all things pertaining to his community and a large number are left to
miss his staunch and loyal friendship. (Note - Jerome was not born
on the farm where he died. He was born in Armenia Township and moved to
Sullivan about 1854. At least he was in the 1850 Armenia census at age
one, and his father was of Armenia when he bought the family farm from
his sisters in 1854. JMT) |
