William A. Bancroft
Died Sept. 11, 1884, W. A. Bancroft, aged 55 years, six months and 27 days.
The deceased was born in Gibson, St. Lawrance county, N. Y., and was married to Miss Mary Ann Millward, June 27th, 1850.
Ten years after he moved to Lamoine, Ill., where he resided until 1870, when he moved to Chesterton.
He was the father of 13 children. Eleven of whom are still living. His wife died July 14th, 1882, which left him disconsolated, but he endeavored to keep the young members of the family together, struggling as best he could; but at last his heath failing, they were forced to separate; he taking up his abode with Mr. Hineline, his son-in-law, who has provided for him, and at whose house he died after suffering several months from heart and other difficulties.
He was always a hard worker and at one time quite well situated, but misfortune prevailed, and a large family kept him in reduced circumstances. He worried much lest he should become a burden to anyone, especially when he believed there was a large inheritance due him, which others were wronging him out of, probably hastened his end.
For many years he was a leading member of the M. E. Church, and a Sunday school superintendent, during which time he exhorted from the pulpit.
