MONROE CO., OH - OBITUARIES, Vol. 2 [1935]

"John L. B. Latta, 78, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Frank

Turner of Maple Ave. at midnight Monday, death being due to infirmities.

"Mr. Latta had been at the home of his daughter about 18 months. For 27

years prior to that he had been caretaker of the R. E. Emblem estate in

Wheeling, W.VA. Injuries sustained in a fall from a wall on the above

estate was the cause of his coming to Woodsfield for care, as he had

been unable to work since then.

"Besides Mrs. Turner he is survived by a daughter, Mrs. Charles Feiber

of Lewisville and one son in the west. The late Dave Latta was a

half-brother.

"Funeral services were held at the Woodsfield M. E. Church at 2:00

Wednesday, in charge of Rev. Homer Chalfant pastor. Interment in

Oaklawn cemetery."
