OBITUARY

Daniel Salyars was born in Shenandoah Co., Va., December 22d 1806. When he had reached the age of five or six years his parents moved to Kentucky, near Lexington. Soon his mother became a widow with five children and moved to Guernsey county, Ohio, settling on the land then on the frontier in the midst of a dense forest of heavy timber with her three sons and two daughters. Here he was brought up at hard work, felling timber, making a farm and raising grain until he was twenty-two years old, when he was married to Jane Bright, March 24th, 1828.

They moved to Morocco, Ohio, where in 1843 his wife died, leaving him with eight children. Some time after this he united with the Christian Church, of which he has ever since been a member. Some time after this he married again and moved to Illinois, then back to Ohio, then to W. Va., and then to Iowa, where he remained until Sept. last, when he came to Windsor on a visit to his daughters, Mrs. E. B. Phillips and Mrs. S. Glassburn; concluding to stay through the winter, he was taken sick and lingered until April 7th, when he died at S. Glassburn's and was interred in Laurel Oak Cemetery at the age of 75 years, 3 months and 15 days. E. B. P.
