George Ogle Litherland was born in Friendsville precinct, Wabash county, Illinois, December 26, 1833. He was married to Sarah Jane Fite March 20, 1856. To this union were born six children, four boys and two girls: Mary E. McFarland, Wm. F. Webb D., Joseph T. and Leah L. Leighty, all of Wabash County, Illinois, and Clinton W. of Muskogee, Oklahoma. He united with the Christian church over 49 years ago, and has been a consistent member ever since. He was a devoted father to his family and a loyal member of the church. His wife and oldest son William F., preceded him to the grave. His health began to fail some three or four years ago. About one year ago he suffered a slight stroke of paralysis, from which he never fully recovered, and he has had several reocurrances of the attack, the last one coming just two days before his demise.
From this he never regained consciousness, and passed away October 1, 1910 - aged 76 years, 9 months and 5 days. Besides his family he leaves two sisters-Mrs. Mary Prout, of Allendale, ILL., and Mrs. Harriett Couch of Mt. Carmel, ILL. - eighteen grandchildren, seven great-grandchildren, and a host of friends to mourn his departure. Funeral services were held at Adam's Corner Christian church, Tuesday, October 4th, conducted by Elder J.E. Moyer. Interment in Adam's Corner cemetery.
