Notes |
- Bleam.--Dilman, son of Jonathan and Margaret Bleam, was born in Waterloo Co., Ont., June 9, 1858, and came to Michigan with his parents in 1875. They purchased the farm in Bowne that has since been his home with the exception of about three years' residence in Canada. He was united in marriage to Littlian Elizabeth Spaetzel in Waterloo Co., Ont., in the fall of 1889. To this union were born four children, 2 daughters and 2 sons. The eldest daughter, Mrs. Adeline Overholt, died in Feb. 1914. Dilman was a member of the Mennonite Church since his early manhood. He was known and respected throughout this entire vicinity and for many miles around. He will be mourned and greatly missed as a good neighbor and friend. After a week's illness he passed away at his home December 26, 1926; aged 68 y. 6 m. 15 d. He is survived by his devoted companion, one daughter, two sons, nine grandchildren, one sister, one brother and a large number of other relatives. Funeral services were held at the Bowne Mennonite Church conducted by the brothern Ira S. Johns and Aldus Brackbill. Tex. (which was chosen by the family) Jno. 3: 16
