Amos Wells Thomas was born at Shiloh, N. J., October 14, 1822, and died at Milton, Wis., September 4, 1900.
When Bro. Thomas was nineteen years of age he gave his heart to Christ, and became a member of the Shiloh Seventh-day Baptist church, where he has for fifty-nine years remained a faithful and worthy member, though he has spent the last four years of his life in Milton with his son, Prof. Walter Thomas, and his only daughter, Miss Nettie. On February 5, 1846, he married Miss Abigail S. Ayers. Seven children came to this home, five of whom are living. Sister Thomas preceded him to that better country by seven years.
Some four weeks ago he received a sun-stroke, and gradually sank away until he fell asleep to awake in that better land. His son and daughter came with the remains to Shiloh. Services were held in the church and the body laid to rest beside the wife and mother. Sermon preached from Isa. 33: 17, "His eyes shall see the King in his beauty."
