BRIGGS, JOHN
NAPLES NY FEB
4, 1891
John Briggs was born in Milo, Yates county, April
5, 1802, and died at Bloods, January 26, 1891. He was one of
a family of nine children, only two of whom, Mrs. Ann Bartholomew,
of this place and Hon. W.S. Briggs, of Penn Yan, survive
him. He was a grand speciman of the early pioneers who are rapidly
passing away. In his early life he submitted to great privations
with heroic fortitude, but always preserved amidst these hardships
the sweet amenities of life, and left grand legacies of a good
Christian character. He retained his mental and physical powers
far beyond many of his years, and was emphatically a grand, noble
Christian man, loved and respected by all who knew him. In May
1825, he married Miss Ann A. Green, and to them twelve children
were born, seven of whom survive him. In 1840 he moved to Naples
and settled in Garlinghouse where he resided for more than forty
years, filling many responsible positions both in church and
State. His funeral was held at the schoolhouse January 28, Rev
J.H. Masten officiating, assisted by the Revds, S. Wright and A.
Norton. The unusually large concourse of people at his funeral was
a marked attestation of his worth. His remains rest in our
cemetery (Garlinghouse) here beside those of his companion who
preceeded him twenty years ago to the "Land Beyond." [Submitted by

SCOTT,
GAD
Naples NY 23 Mar 1894
Obit: The
venerable GAD SCOTT died at his residence (which is also that of
his son Albert Scott) last friday, 16th, at the advanced age of 87
years and 9 months. The deceased had been a resident of Geneva a
little more than forty years, previous to which he lived several
years at Dresden. He was one of the most faithful, exemplary
and active members of the M.E. Church, taking a prominent part in
exhortation and prayer whenever laymen were priviledged to be
heard in the services. Fluent in speech, earnest and impressive in
invocation to God, it was ever impressive and profitable to the
soul to hear him. Mr. Scott was very abstemious in his habits
throughout his entire life. It was his proud boast that
intoxicating beverages of no kind had ever passed his lips, nor
did he know the taste of tobacco in any form. To such abstinence
and moderation in everything he attributed his great longevity and
uniform good health. He was ill only two or three months prior to
the final summons hence. The machinery of his organism had utterly
worn out. The grim messenger when he came found him fully prepared
to follow. The deceased was the father of twelve children, just
one half of whom, three sons and three daughters, survive. His
funeral was held last Sunday, his beloved pastor Rev. W.H. Giles,
officiating. Internment at Dresden.
