OBITUARY
Oliver H. Harvey was born August. 23rd, 1827 in Herkimer, New York, died December 23rd, 1894 at his home five miles north of Urich.
He was the fifth child in a family of six children, two of which survive him. He received a common school education at home, afterward attending the Whitestown Academy at Whitestown, N. Y..
The greater part of his life was spent on a farm. He moved to Illinois in 1847, but one year later returned to New York. He was married to May E. Harter, January 4th. 1852. Two children were born to them, Otis M. Harvey and William H Harvey. These children were left motherless at an early age.
The deceased was again married to Elizabeth C. Hartly April 10, 1860. Three children blessed this union, Albert H Harvey, Mary E. and Joel G. Harvey,. The mother and two sons still survive him.
In the spring of 1867 he again came west and located on the farm where he resided at the time of his death. He had been a sufferer from rheumatism and for the last thirteen years had been confined to his chair. He united with the Baptist church in 1879. He freely conversed upon the subject of death and ever expressed a willingness to go.
In the death of Mr. Harvey was lost an affectionate husband and parent, but the loss of those left behind is his gain. We have no hesitancy in saying from the evidence he left be hind, that he has gone to that city where invalid chairs are not used and where pain in this world are now straight.
The funeral services were held at Brushy Chapel and were conducted by Rev. H. Willey and son.
The remains were followed to the Urich cemetery by a large concourse of friends and laid to rest.
