Stephen Radford (d: 1902)
#1:
Stephen Radford died at his home in Riceville, Iowa Sunday morning, January 12th of Bright's disease. He was one of the early settlers of this section having located about four miles southeast from LeRoy in 1855 where he resided until a few years ago when he and his family moved to Riceville.
The very sudden death of his wife on February 22, 1901 was a severe shock to him. Three sons and five daughters survive. Many other relatives and friends will miss this true and trusted man.
Interment will be at Riceville on Tuesday, January 14th.
