DEATH OF JOHN LINAWEAVER

Another good citizen departed this life at his home in Vernon township, Thursday, April 15, 1909, in the person of John Linaweaver, aged 68. He had been in poor health for some time, the result of paralysis. His wife and two children survive. The funeral, which was largely attended, was held from the residence Sunday.

(Photocopy of this obit is located on page 149 of Obit Book "A" found in the Van Buren County, IA Genealogical Society's collection at the Keosauqua Public Library in Oct 2000. Name of newspaper and date of obit not given.)

I have photo taken 7/99 of tombstone in Wolfe Cem, is a newer double stone: John Joshua Born Nov. 4, 1844 Died Apr. 15, 1909 & Vilinda Bradford Born Sep. 22, 1847 Died Jan. 7, 1915 (looks like new stone was put on older base that says LINEAWEAVER).

Obituary of John's wife, Vilinda, found elsewhere on this forum.

Would like to exchange information on this family.
