Lathrop, Sarah L. Leffingwell, Aug 7, 1841 - Feb 10, 1928
Lathrop, Milo, Sep 19, 1830 - Feb 21, 1916: obit - Milo Lathrop, was born in Lower Sandusky, Ohio, Sept 19, 1830. He was the oldest of a family of four children, three brothers and one sister, one a brother Charles of California being the only survivor of the family.In 1840, the subject of this sketch was brought by his parents to Scott co, Iowa while this state was yet a territory. From the time of his arrival in Iowa until the year 1857, Mr. Lathrop lived and worked with his parents in Scott co, Iowa, on a farm, but in 1857, in company with his brother, G.W. Lathrop, and a half-brother, Anthony Courtright, he moved to Jones co, Iowa, and there under the firm name of Courtright & Lathrop a large grist and saw mill was built.This mill was named the Oxford Mills and the village where this mill was operated very successfully by this firm for a period of about ten years is known by that name at this time.
On March 6, 1862, Mr Lathrop was married to Sarah L. Leffingwell, in Jones co, Iowa. To this union there have been born twelve children, ten of whom survive.The eldest, a daughter, Effie, passed away in infancy and the next a son, Edwin L. followed his sister about fifteen years ago. The names and residence of the survivors follow: M.E. and H.I. Lathrop reside in Oregon; Mary L. wife of Frank Morris, C.H. Lathrop, Sarah Eliza, wife of George Combs, and George A. Lathrop reside at or near New Market; Dr P.L. Lathrop lives at Olathe, Kansas; Dr G.F. Lathrop resides at Detroit, Michigan; Grace E. wife of Clyde Johnson resides near Braddyville and Candace I. wife of Arthur Falk, near Clarinda.There are twenty-three grandchildren and two great grandchildren.
At the breaking out of the Civil War, Mr Lathrop raised a company of volunteers, but owing to the fact that his half-brother and partner were also anxious to enlist and it was absolutely necessary for one to remain in the milling business, he finally yielded to his brother and remained at home. He was captain of a company of state militia and subject to state call during almost the entire period of the war and was at all times a most enthusiastic supporter of the Union cause.
Prior to his removal to Taylor county, Mr Lathrop owned and operated a large stock farm in Jones co, where seven of the children were born. In 1876, he sold out his entire interest in Jones co, and moved to Taylor co, where he has since lived, the long period of forty years. Upon his arrival in Taylor County, Mr Lathrop purchased a large stock and grain farm four miles north-east of New Market, which he operated successfully until the year 1903 when he sold a part of his farm and moved to New Market.
Mr Lathrop and his wife were at one time members of the Presbyterian Church and he was one of the foremost in helping to build the church near his farm but on the transfer of that church to the M.E. Church they transferred their membership to the latter church and have been consistent members since such transfer was made.The life I have briefly tried to describe has been characterized by tireless energy, industry, honesty and in his love and devotion to his wife and children Mr Lathrop was excelled by none, indeed he was one of the most splendid men in his family this writer has ever known.In public affairs where he has lived, Mr Lathrop has never shirked any of his share of the burdens and in all things has been in the fullest sense of the term a public spirited man.The deceased is survived by his wife with whom he lived in the most loving companionship for nearly fifty-four years and the children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren here-to-fore named. These together with a host of friends and acquaintances are left to mourn his death which occurred at this home in New Market, Feb 21st, 1916 at the age of eighty-five years, five months, and two days.
