George Handy was born in the town of Parma, Monroe county, N. Y., January 6, 1829, and came with my parents to Steuben county, Ind., in the fall of 1846 living at Pleasant Lake through the following winter, then moved to the township of Brockville, at that time, now changed to Fremont, locating on section 13, remaining there until the spring of 1900. Since that time have lived in the village of Ray. On October 15, 1851, was united in marriage to Eliza Hathaway To this union were born four children, three of whom died in infancy. Sept. 20, 1858, my wife followed her little ones through the gateway of death leaving me with one child and many friends to mourn our loss. March 9, 1859, I was united in marriage to Martha Brawn (sic). To this union were born three children, one of whom died in early life. November 24, 1896, my wife left the world of trials for that land beyond leaving me with two daughters and one son, Henry S. Handy, Lida Duguid and Mary McTaggart with whom I am spending the closing years of his life. In the year 1864 there was a Baptist church organized in Clear Lake, Indiana, of which I was one of the constituent members and I can say that it gives me pleasure to meet with the few who are trying to hold up the standard of the Lord. I can say with the poet: I love thy kingdom Lord, The house of thine abode; The church our blessed redeemer saved With his own precious blood. (Written by himself, Feb. 5, 1906) After an illness of fourteen weeks, on the morning of November 1, 1918, with his two daughters and their husbands at his bedside, the "silver cord" broke and his spirit took its flight to meet the loved ones gone before and the Christ whom he had loved and served so many, many years. Aged 89 years, 9 months and 25 days. He leaves to mourn his departure two daughters, their husbands, one daughter-in-law, his son, Henry Spencer having preceded him on Feb. 22, 1918, six grandchildren and fifteen great grandchildren besides many near relatives and a host of friends. He was a great temperance worker and a charter member of the prohibition party. His sterling christian character made him beloved by all who knew him. Funeral services were held at the home Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. Mr. Cutler of Bronson, Mich., a former pastor of the Clear Lake Baptist church officiating, assisted by Rev. E. M. Rhoades, of Pleasant Lake, the present pastor. The choir furnished music. Interment in the Ray cemetery. .pdf of source
