_______________________________________________________________________

(From his brother James's obituary) James lived in Kansas until the
spring of 1895, when he and a younger bother Joe, left by way of a
horse and buggy for the state of Iowa, to make their home with an
aunt, Mrs. Mosier, who lived on a large farm near Lebanon. Another
brother, John, soon joined them. (Gladys Hervey Beggs told the story
as if the three brothers all came to Iowa together.)

Per Merilyn Hervey Wiley - 2019

Ricky passed away in Iowa City University of Iowa Hospital after surgery earlier in the day for Herschsprings, a segment of the Bowel that has no nerves to tell you to move your Bowels, Dr, ordered to give the baby an enema as he hadn't moved his Bowels, that blew a hole in the Bowel so by the time Jim and his Parents drove him to Iowa City Ricky already had Peritonitis Infection and then went through Surgery, he must have been a fighter to go through all that and made it 8 hours after till passing, I turned right around and wanted a Baby and that's how we had Linda a year later in March and the world and us wouldn't know what to do without her, she is a lively one and you certainly know when she is around ❤
