Obituary Notice in "The True Republic" (7 Jul 1880), Neillsville, Clark County, WI

Mr. Rensalear Tuttle, aged 90 years, 10 months and 28 days, died at the residence of his son, in the town of Weston, July 15, 1880. Mr. Tuttle was born in Connecticut. He lived many years in Ohio, and came to Clark county about 7 years ago. He leaves two children, a large number of grand children, and a goodly number of great grandchildren. Funeral services took place at the Hyslip school house last Saturday forenoon, and were attended by many friends and relatives of the deceased. Rev. W. T. Hendren conducted the services. The age of 93, nearly 94 years, is more than the common measure of life. Indeed, we believe Mr. Tuttle was, with one or two exceptions, the oldest person in the county.
