General Notes: Husband - Rev. William R. Yearick

---

He was a minister of the Reformed Church, but was crippled through rheumatism, and died at the age of sixty-three years.

At the age of fifteen rheumatism claimed him as a victim, after which time he was a constant and a patient sufferer. At the age of twenty-seven he entered the ministry, and, although crippled from the very outset of his duties, he managed to serve his people up to about 1880. His zeal was remarkable, and for a number of years, although suffering more bodily pain than is usually allotted to man, he preached from a chair, being carried to and from the church by some of the members of his congregation. He was still living in 1883, and, although a helpless invalid, his mental faculties remain unimpaired.
