MRS. CIV. CREATH
IS YEARS OLD.
WAPELLO co PIONEER HONORED
ON BIRTHDAY AT HOME
NEAR AGENCY.

The following article written by
friend tells of the 66th birthday cele.
bration in honor of Mrs Creath,
mother Of Dr.. W. E. Creath:
Mrs. Geo. w. Creath, living two and
one-half miles east of Agency City,
celebrated her 66th birthday anniver-
sary by having her children and grand
children join with her in family din
ner at their residence. Mrs. Creath
enjoys the rather unusual distinction
of living on the exact site Of the log
cabin home where her father camped
when first coming to Iowa from lndi
ana in 1S43.
Mrs. Creath was a daughter of Rev.
Reuben and Sarah Myers, known to
most early settlers as uncle Reuben"
and Aunt Sallie" Myers. They were
married in Indiana came overland by
OK team in 1S43 and settled on the
farm now occupied by their only
daughter, who was born in the old
log cabin in 1S4S, grew to womanhood.
receiving her early education in the
Ashland public schools and finishing
in the Ping seminary located in Ash
land, at that time quite fair town,
having banks. hotels, splendid stores,
churches and schools, modern railroad
advancements on either side leaving
Ashland isolated from these ad-
vantages sounded the knell for the
old town. One by one the houses and
stores have disappeared till nothing
remains but the Methodist church
and the district school,
In 1865 Malissa J. Myers was united
in marriage to Geo. w. Creath. who
had just finished four years Of service
for his country being in the 4th regi-
ment Iowa cavalry, veteran volunteer
service, enlisting under Capt. D.. F.
Winslow and Col A. B. Porter for 3
years and participating in Falls Ferry,
Mo-, Helena, Ark, Miles Creek, Jack
son, siege of Vicksburg and other
noted engagements. He was honorably
discharged in December 1863 and re.
enlisted for second years, serving
to the close of the war and getting
honorably discharged in Aug. 1865.
To this union were born six chill
dren two daughters, Mrs A. M.
Acton and Mrs. J. T. Black and two
sons, VIM E. and Thos M. are still
living, two daughters having died in
their early childhood.
These four surviving children are
married and have families of children
who gather round the home fireside
on the birthday anniversary Of each
of the parents. On Dec. 8, 1913
similar .festal home coming was cele-
brated being the 18th birthdate of the
esrher, G. w. Creath On this occasion
bae entire family of children and
grandchildren we're present. The
usual birthday cake with IS lighted
candles was the center of attraction
while the rounds Of good things to
eat caused the guests to forget the
candles. With this family custom
is established to meet no less often
than the birthday anniversary Of the
parents.
