Death of George H. Youngblood
Mr. George H. Youngblood, a well known (can't read) of North Alton, died at the family home Friday evening at 6:20, aged 70 years. Mr. Youngblood was born in Hesse Darmstadt, Germany, and came to this country when 13 years of age and settled in New Jersey. The following year he came west and took up his residence near Elsah on a farm. In 1880 he moved his family to Joplin, Mo., where he started a livery stable. Later he returned to North Alton and lived the last ten years of his life. Twelve years ago he was stricken with paralysis as the result of being shot during the war while attempting to arrest some Knights of the Golden Circle near Newbern. Mr. Youngblood was then a constable. He became helpless during the last ten years of his life. He leaves eight children, five sons and three daughters, all grown: George, Louis, William, Jacob and Frank Youngblood, of North Alton, Mrs Albert (sic) Carman, of Joplin, Mo., Mrs. J.M. Robinson, of Texas, and Mrs. Richard Strong of North Alton.
The funeral will be from the family home on Sunday to the Evangelical church, services will be held at both places and interment will be to city Cemetery.
