| Notes |
- The following obituary was transcribed from the Everett Press and Leader, September 23, 1892, and published on the internet at http://www.pa-roots.org/data/read.php?52,239181,239181 and available in 2010:
W. C. Ashcom, the subject of this notice was born in Woodbury, Bedford county, February 6, 1854, and died in his home in Riddlesburg, this county on Sunday September 18th, 1892 in the thirty-ninth year of his age, of Typhoid pneumonia after an illness of two weeks. He had not been in good health for several months and feared that he would not live long and had prepared his wife in some degree for the sad departing, by advising her what to do in case his fears were realized. He was compelled to take his bed on Monday, September 5th, with a severe attack of heart trouble; being very weak and contracting a cold, Typhoid pneumonia intervened and on Sunday the 18th inst, he calmly fell asleep. Mr. Ashcom was married November 25th 1883 to Miss Ettie Morgan, of Johnstown who with a son and daughter are left to mourn the loss of a kind and loving husband and father. He was a son of Hon. C. W. and Mary A. Ashcom of that place and a brother of Hon. E.S, F.J. and Ada Ashcom and of Mrs. W. Lauder, of Riddlesburg, Mrs. J.R. Akers, of Philadelphia, and Mrs. William Kelly, of Vulcan, Michigan.
The esteem in which he was held by those who knew him was evinced by the fact that all the business places of Everett and Hopewell were closed on the day of the funeral. The funeral services were held on Tuesday in the M. E. Church at Riddlesburg, conducted by Rev. J. R. Dunkerly, assisted by Rev. J. A. Wood and Rev. W. H. Schuyler, of Everett, Rev. C. W. Karnes of Clearville and Rev. I. N. Moorehead, his former pastor and friend of Lewisburg, who preached the funeral sermon.
A special train kindly furnished by General Manager Gage, conveyed the remains with the friends to Everett where he was laid to rest in the Everett Cemetery. The Knights of the Golden Eagle of Hopewell and Everett, of which order the deceased was a member, attended the funeral. The sympathy of the entire communtity goes out to the bereaved widow, the fatherless little children, the aged parents and the brothers and sisters, in this hour of their bereavement. May he rest in peace.
