*****************************************
Jobe E. Place, a pioneer resident of this vicinity, succumbed at 4 o'clock Tuesday morning at his home on Oconto Avenue, the cause of death being complications arising from old age. Mr. Place, who had been ailing for the past several months, had been confined to his bed for two months and his death was not unexpected.
Decedent was 85 years of age; having been born in Chittenden, Vermont, July 25, 1834. He was a son of Lyman and Susan Jackson Place, who were born in Saint Lawrence County, New York.
In October 1851, he came to Peshtigo, entering the employ of the Peshtigo Lumber company with whom he remained until 1857. During this year he purchased 160 acres of land in section N, Grover township, where he took up his residence. At this time it was all timber land and in the midst of a dense forest, without roads or any improvements, only a trail of wilderness. He labored diligently, cleared the land and erected a substantial residence.
In the big Peshtigo Fire of 1871, the home, cattle and all his belongings were destroyed. He began his work anew and erected new buildings and worked his 160-acre farm to a good state of cultivation. Mr. Place has seen all the growth and development of Marinette County and is well and favorably known, always being kind and genial to his many friends. He was supervisor of Grover township for many years. He was a resident of Marinette County for sixty-nine years and removed to Peshtigo from Grover twelve years ago, when he retired from farm life.
