• Notes

  John Eby, "was born October 1st, 1840. He is married to Elizabeth Lawson and has a family of six children, two boys and four girls. He resides in Elkhart, Indiana, U.S., where he is engaged as a minister of the Gospel in the United Brethren Church. In his calling he is doing a good work for the Lord, having been very successful as a minister. Sinners are converted and brought to the Lord through his labors, and the people of God are generally greatly refreshed in spirit while listening to his able sermons." Eby, Ezra E. (1895).
