• Notes

  from "The Monongahela (PA) Daily Republican", 18 Feb 1895 (newspapers.com) Mr. James Woods, an aged and highly respected resident of Elizabeth township, Allegheny Co,. died Friday afternoon. Although he had been in delicate health for two or three years, it was not thought he was dangerously ill. His death, therefore, was a surprise and a shock to his many friends. Up to within a few day of his death he was able to go about through the house. Mr. Woods was well known to all the older citizens of the community and was recognized as one of the most honorable of men. He represented the third generation of a family of the early settlers of Western Pennsylvania, his grand-father having taken out the patent on the land which has ever since been the home of the family. He was in his 74th year, the dae of his birth being March 5th, 1821. He leaves a wife and grown up family. His oldest son Dr. John S. Woods is a prominent physician of Kansas City. William H. and Joseph B. are farmers and live on the home place. Lizzie is the wife of Mr. John C. Carothers, a prosperous farmer near West Newton, Bertie, the youngest of the family married Mr. R.C. Crowthers, a wholesale coal agent of Cincinnati, O. The funeral services will be held at the family residence at 8 o'clock to-morrow Tuesday, Feb 19th. Interment at Fell's church, the family burying ground. In the passing away of James Woods, the community loses one of its most upright citizens, and a large circle of friends will mourn his death.
