Obituary Online notes for Frederick Alvah INGLE Sr.
The Winchester (IN) Democrat, November 26, 1925
Frederick Ingle, son of William and Rachael Ingle, was born near the village of Harrisville, in Wayne township, Randolph County, Indiana, August 28th, 1843, and departed this life November 5th, 1925, at the age of eighty-two years, two months, and seven days.
He was of a family of twelve children, all of which except Fred having long since left the old home community, he having spent his entire life in Randolph County, also continuously on a part of the old home farm where he was born, with the exception of a few years spent in Winchester.
September 5, 1862, he was joined in marriage with Catherine Welch. To this union were born five sons and one daughter. The daughter and three sons preceded him to the life beyond, while Grant and Solomon survived.
The wife of his youth departed for the Heavenly Clime April 16, 1884. He was again joined in marriage with Fannie Yunker December 14, 1892. This union was blessed with the coming of two daughters, both of whom, with the wife and mother, remain to mourn their loss. He became a member of the Harrisville Christian church, August 22nd, 1866, and was buried with christ in baptism the same year.
He was also a member of the Knights of Pythias at Union Cit, and the Knights of the Golden Eagle at Harrisville.
He leaves to mourn their loss, his faithful companion, two sons, two daughters, eleven grandchildren, ten great grandchildren and four sisters, besides many more distant relatives and a host of friends.
It would be useless for the writer to dwell on the life and service of the deceased. His life has been an open book in the community, read and known of all men. He served his church many years as Deacon, and the Sunday school as superintendent in all of which he was faithful and loyal, but he has now gone to reap the reward for which he labored. Gone but not forgotten. Dead, but more alive than he ever was before. Therefore shall we not love and serve the God he loved and served, that we may have like joy with him in the eternal city? While his illness was of a distressing nature, he is now gone where sickness, sorrow, pain and death are forever unknown. 470, Frederick Ingle
