Obituary

4 December 1926

Obituary: The obituary for Jacob was recorded on 4 December 1926. Jacob Coughenour, 83 years old, for many years a resident of Layton, died yesterday morning in the home of his daughter, Mrs. Anna Bates in the White Front apartments, North Pittsburg Street. The deceased had been making his home with his daughter since last September and on Monday suffered a stroke of paralysis. Mr. Coughenour was a resident of Layton for the past 33 years and since the death of his wife four years ago, had been making his home with his daughter in Layton and in Connellsville. He was born in Altoona April 3rd or 8th (hard to read, crease in paper), 1844. In 1868, he married Miss Anna Swope and to that union were born two sons and a daughter, Mrs. Anna Bates of Connellsville, Alex Coughenour and William Coughenour of Cumberland, the latter two deceased. After the death of his first wife he married Miss SARAH CORNELIUS and to that union were born two daughters, Mrs. Stella Richter and Mrs. Allie Edwards, both of Layton. He was a life long and consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal Church and served as superintendent of the Church in Layton for fifteen years. He was well known in his community and highly respected by all. Funeral services will be held in the home of Mrs. Bates on Saturday afternoon at 12:30 with services in the Methodist Episcopal Church in Perryopolis at 2:00 o'clock. Internment will be made in Mount Washington Cemetery of the same place. (December 3, 1926) Connellsville Courier.¹
