Henry AULT, aged 96, Fulton county's oldest citizen, died at his home on west Eighth street Thursday morning at 5:20 o'clock, a victim of senility. Mr. Ault, a veteran of the Civil War, who was born in Ohio, October 30, 1826, and had been a [citizen of this] city since 1863, had been fairly active in recent years despite his advanced age, retaining well all of his faculties except his hearing, until this winter when he became confined to his home. He was not really ill, but continued to sink from day to day until death finally overtook him.
Surviving are the widow, Mrs. Lucy AULT, to whom he was married 13 years ago, three daughters, Mrs. Geo. ADAMS and Mrs. William BAILEY of Fulton county and Mrs. Frank BARCUS of this city and one son, Joseph AULT, of Warroads, Minn. His first wife died July 19, 1902.
Henry Ault was born in Belmont county, Ohio in 1826. He learned the trades of carpenter and millwright early in life, following this trade for a number of years.
In 1854 he removed to Huntington county, Indiana and enlisted at Indianapolis with the boys in blue of Company H, Forty-seventh Indiana infantry. This regiment was attached to the army of the Potomac. After 13 months of active service he was discharged from field duty on account of disability, and transferred to the hospital service, acting as hospital steward at Camp Wycliffe, Ky. By order of the division surgeon he was given command of Hospital No. 2 at Louisville, Ky., and later was placed in charge of the convalescent corps, returning home with some of "the boys."
Henry Ault was married in 1849 to Susanna FRECK, a native Fairfield county, Ohio and a daughter of Joseph FRECK, a farmer of German descent. Their children were, Eva, wife of William J. BAILEY of Leiters Ford, Mary H., wife of George ADAMS, north of Rochester, Joseph F. [AULT], former resident of this city and Lilla, wife of G. F. BARCUS, of this city.
