Levi HAINES was born in New Jersey, on June 5th, 1801. In 1810 with his parents he moved to Champaign county, Ohio. Here he grew to years of maturity, and on May 10, 1828 was married to Miss Abigail RICE.

Ten children were given to this union, four of whom survive the father. In 1853 he with his family, moved to Grand Meadow twp, Clayton county, Iowa. For the past eleven years he has been residing in this place.

For 20 years he has been a sufferer from rheumatism. It crippled him severely, so that for the past 8 years he has been obliged to use canes or crutches. He had been a powerful man, pssessed of a stong constitution. A faithful, tender wife cared for him through all the years of his decline.

On Monday evening May 8th, he breathed his last. On May 10th, the 52nd anniversary of their wedding, the widow laid his remains away in their last resting place.
