JACOB ALLMAN, 21 Feb 1846 - 19 Oct 1912.

                      JACOB ALLMAN
   Was born Feb. 21st, 1846, near Montpelier, Ohio, and died 
Oct. 19, 1912, at his home in Orland, Indiana, aged 66 years, 
7 months and 28 days.  He was united in marriage to Harriet 
Friend, Dec. 21, 1871.  To this union were born four 
children, three daughters and one son.  One daughter passed 
from earthly life nineteen years ago.  The greater part of 
his life was spent on a farm near Montpelier.  Five years ago 
he removed to Orland, and shortly thereafter erected his 
beautiful little home in which his last days were spent with 
his life companion.  He was stricken down with disease June 
17, of this year, and since that time has been a great but 
patient sufferer; quiet and unassuming, given to service for 
others, devoted to his home and family, industrious, honest 
and faithful and a loving husband and father.  These are the 
chief characteristics of the life just closed.  He leaves a 
wife and three children to mourn for his companionship.  He 
was a life-long member of the Methodist church.  The 
beautiful life thus closed had much of suffering but its end 
is sweet peace.
