SOVINE BOY DEAD
Joseph, Six-year-old Son of Mr. and Mrs. John Sovine Died Today.
At an early hour
Had Been Ill Long With Tuberculosis of the Skin
Sad Case.
A sad death was recorded this morning at 6 o'clock, when Joseph, the little six-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. John Sovine, well known residents of Thirteenth street, passed into the better world. The little fellow had been ill for some time with tuberculosis of the skin and another skin affection which seemed to baffle the skill of the physicians, and death which came this morning was a welcome relief from his suffering. The heart-broken parents survive. He also leaves two sisters, Esther, aged eight, and Maude, aged two.
The funeral will be held Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock from the Washington church and interment will take place in the Ray Cemetery.

Thank you for the kind words, Barbara!
So many people have helped me in my hunt for ancestors that posting these obits is a small "pass it on."
My thanks go to Tim Singleton, the Decatur Daily Democrat, and the staff at the Decatur Library. Without them none of the obit posting would be possible. It is good to know that they have been of some help to other researchers!

Hi,
You might try looking at the family trees on ancestry.com which is free. I found several submissions on the family of Samuel Morningstar who married twice; Josephine Morningstar being from his 2nd marriage. Found in 1860 and 1870 census in Blue Creek twp., Adams Co., IN
Hope this helps.
