OBITUARY OF HARRY LIVESAY


Harry Livesay
was born at Fairchild, Mich., Dec. 31, 1876, and lived there for the first 20 years of his life. He then moved to Greenwood, Clark County, where he was married to Katherine Alton on Oct. 17, 1900.


He was employed on the railroad as a brakeman and as switchman and in the course of his work lived at Marshfield, Stevens Point, Fond du Lac and Waukesha. He returned about 20 yeas ago, settling on a farm.


Later he engaged in farming in the town of Fremont and eight years later moved to the town of Grant, where he remained until last May, when he moved to the Town of Weston. He was suddenly taken ill on Sunday, May 22, and rushed to the Neillsville Hospital, where an operation was performed in an attempt to save his life. But death came Friday afternoon as a result of peritonitis.


He is survived by his wife, his mother, Mrs. Harriet Livesay and one daughter, Lenore, Mrs. Robert Riggs of Neillsville.
