WILLIAM MONROE LUNSFORD JR.

William Monroe Lunsford Jr. was the last of ten children of William and Mary Brunk Lunsford, was born July 31, 1879 in Schuyler Co., Missouri and passed away on May 3, 1967 at the Van Buren Memorial Hospital at Keosauqua.

As a small child, he came with his parents to the Milton area where he remained the rest of his life. During the course of his life he had been a farmer, filling station operator, photographer, and piano tuner. At the age of forty years he suffered a serious, crippling back inury(injury). But in spite of this he was active and uncomplaining.

About a year ago while a resident at the Davis Nursing Home in Keosauqua, at his request, he was baptized, following his own confession of the Christian faith, by the pastor of the Milton Methodist Church.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by all of his four brothers and five sisters.

Survivors include one sister-in-law, several nieces(sp) and nephews, other relatives and many friends.

Services were held on Fri. Methodist Church with the day, May 5, 1967 at the Milton Rev. Herbert Phillips in charge.

Interment was in Hubbard Cemetery with Wellborn Funeral Home in charge of arrangements.
