This post was contributed to the Crawford County Chapter of OGS by Kristina Stearley as part of the Florence Siefert Scrapbook in 2010.
The scrapbook is compiled from undated, unidentified newspaper clippings involving events in the lives of Crawford County citizens living in or having connections to New Washington, Tiro, Shelby, Sulphur Springs, Chatfield, Bucyrus, Ashland, Mansfield, and other areas. Only minimal spelling or punctuation corrections were made. Unreadable areas are shown by underlines, dots &/or question marks. This collection has been scanned, “optical character recognized” (OCR’d), proofed, then coded for HTML by volunteers of the Crawford County Chapter of the Ohio Genealogical Society. Since the copies are not of the best quality errors may have been made. Please contact us if you find corrections needing to be made or can verify any missing dates which could be added.
Henry Shutt, a pioneer of this county, died at his home in Sandusky township last Tuesday, aged about seventy-five years. Mr. Shutt was one of the best known men in that part of the county and hadn’t an enemy in the world. His presence in any company, was always hailed with delight on account of his lively wit and genial humor, which never failed him. His youthful spirit was his priceless possession to the last, and many are the friends who will miss his sunny, happy presence.
