  • Notes 
    • Kinney - In Prairie Ronde township, Thursday, Jan 6th, (1898) D. C. Kinney, aged 74 years. Deceased was born in Huron Co., Ohio and came to Michigan in the year 1853 (this probably should read 1835), located on the farm where he lived and died. By industry and good management he cleared up one of the best farms of several hundred acres in the township. In 1853 he was united in marriage to Caroline Webb, and this union was blessed with four children, two of which, with the wife and mother, survive him. Mr. Kinney was one of the pioneers of the township. His funeral, on Sunday, under auspices of Schoolcraft Lodge of F. & A.M., of which he was a member of 35 years, was the largest in attendance ever known in that community, over 100 buggies by actual count being in the procession. The services were conducted by Rev. D. H. Reiter, at the home, and scores of people were unable to get in the house.
