OBITUARY
John TALLMAN
Memorial of Mr. John Tallman.

Another os the honored pioneers of Jones county has been transported.On Sunday July 30, Joh n Tallman left his pain racked body to lieburied Forest Chapel cemetery and entered upon th e reward of a wellspent life.

Mr. Tallman was born April 1, 1823, in the state of Ohio, in that partof Fairfield county no w called Franklin. Although he was theyoungest of eleven children who grew to manhood, h e survived all ofthem except two sisters.

August 30, 1843, at Canal Winchester, Ohio, he was married to LucindaLowe, a native of Balti more County, Maryland. The space betweenAugust 30, 1843, and July 30 1893, approaches the cy cle of fiftyyears very closely.

Soon after the birth of their oldest child, James Henry Tallman, inthe year 1845, Mr. and Mr s. Tallman moved to Iowa Territory, settledin what is now Rome Township, Jones County, and h ave since done theirfull share in forming the character and institutions of a prosperousan d happy country. Into their thrifty home in Rome township camenine Tallmans, who were respe ctively christened; Nathaniel C., ReubenK., Elizabeth, Winfield, Jane, Rosa, Augeline, Cyma ntha and WilberE. These ten children had become heads of families during the lifetimeof th e ancestor, and all save the one deceased daughter were presentat his funeral.

At the beginning forty-eight years ago, Mr. Tallman could call butforty acres of Rome townsh ip soil his own, when $1.25 was the currentprice per acre. Later in life his farm exceede d three hundred acres.As one by one the ten children left the paternal roof, each was endowed by the father with enough property to serve as a firm support to anindependent existence.

Mr. Tallman never was known to seek for preferment of any kind, yethis fellow citizens kep t him for many years in positions of publictrust. He did his full share as road supervisor , school director,trustee and assessor. While some of his sons were in the field duringth e great rebellion, for three consecutive years Mr. Tallmanrepresented Rome township on the b oard of supervisors.

His religion and politics mingled freely. He prayed politically andvoted religiously. He w anted to be long to a church and politicalparty that had a mission for good. His desire wa s to spread thegospel and elevate mankind. He was the uncompromising enemy to theenslaveme nt of any human lives. Hence it goes without saying that hewas a Methodist and a Republican . In his latter days his hostilityto the rum traffic was so intense that he refused to tak e anymedicine containing a drop of alcohol, and the prohibition ticket wasthe truest emble m of his political sentiments.
