Husband of Annette Wells

Son of Stephen Giles and Angeline Zeh

OBITUARY :
JAMES S. ZEH, for the past 35 years a well known and respected citizen of Oneonta, died at 3:40 o'clock Friday afternoon at his home, 11 Tilton avenue. He had been in failing health for more than a year and since the holidays had been confined to his house.
The cause of death was Bright's disease.
The funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon at half past two o'clock at his late home. Rev. Dr. Charles S. Pendleton of the Main Street Baptist church will officiate, and the body will be placed in the vault in the Plains mausoleum, for interment in the family plot at Glenwood.
The deceased was born 60 years ago and was a son of Stephen and Nancy Zeh of Schoharie county.
He was married in 1880 to Miss Annette Wells of Colliersville and about four years afterwards moved to Oneonta, which had ever since been his home.
He was by occupation a carpenter and wood-worker, and the quality of his service is indicated by tbe fact that he was for 18 years continuously with W. H. Woodin, for 13 years with Briggs & Miller and the Briggs Lumber company, and thereafter until failing health compelled his retirement, with McFee & Borst.
Mr. Zeh who was the last of a family of six children, is survived by his wife and by several nieces and nephews, resident for the most part in Cooperstown and Davenport.
He was a man of most exemplary character, devoted to a remarkable degree to his home, a good friend and neighbor and a thoroughly able, satisfactory and conscientious workman. Particularly he was respected in the immediate neighborhood of the home where for 26 years he had resided; and the wife of more than 40 years will have their heartfelt sympathy in her bereavement.
