SAMUEL S. AUNGST, died at his home in Jefferson Township, about three miles west of Independence, Monday night, April 7, 1884 at 12:30 o'clock.
The funeral takes place this Thursday at Four Corners Church, north of Independence. The friends will meet at the home of the deceased at 10 a.m. The services will be conducted by Rev. Henry Keller.
Mr. Aungst was the son of George Aungst, who was born in Pennsylvania and in his early boyhood moved to Virginia; here he married Elizabeth Zimmerman, and the subject of this sketch was born to them April 11, 1805. When he was six months old his parents moved to Pickaway County, Ohio, and after the war of 1812, they moved to Jefferson Township, and his subsequent life was spent in that part of the country.
Mr. Aungst married Catherine Spayde, November 7, 1829, and five sons and seven daughters were born to them, all of whom are living, except a son who died in infancy.
Farming was his chief occupation and his course in life was such as to gather many steadfast friends.
He is another pioneer who has seen this country change from a dismal forest to blooming fields, but the power that spares not has visited him and he is among us no more. He lacked four days of being 79 years old.
