George W. Shiveley died at his home in Nemaha early Monday morning, September 8, 1902, age 59 years, 9 months and 14 days. He has suffered for some time from heart disease, which caused his death. A few weeks ago he went to Omaha and consulted specialists, but they gave him no relief. He realized that death was near and made his arrangements accordingly.
Mr. Shiveley was born in Adams county, Ohio, Dec. 25, 1842. He was married to Miss Paulina J. Nelson in 1864. To this union were born, four of whom died in infancy. His first wife died in 1874. In 1875 he married Mrs. Susan Robinson. To this union six children were born, four boys and two girls, all of whom survive him. He leaves a wife and eight children.
Mr. Shiveley was a man of integrity and was highly respected. He moved on a farm in Aspinwall precinct about twelve years ago, living there until last year, when he bought property in Nemaha and moved here.
The funeral services, conducted by Rev. T. C. Diltz of Brownville, were held at the Prairie Union church on Tuesday, September 9, 1902, and the remains laid at rest in the cemetery at that place. The bereaved wife and children have our sympathy.

Woman Is Called To Life Eternal
Mrs. Susan I. Shiveley Has Been Summoned
Aged Resident Of Nemaha Passed Away After Short Illness And Leaves Family And Friends To Mourn Her Going — Had Lived Here Many Years
Mrs. Susan I. Shiveley of Nemaha passed away at her home at 1:35 o’clock Sunday afternoon after a brief illness of six days. Some five years ago Mrs. Shiveley had a severe illness and although she partially recovered her health was so impaired that she was unable to withstand the attack of pneumonia which developed following a severe cold.
Mrs. Shiveley had been a resident of Nemaha for 28 years and of the state for 43 years, having lived on a farm three and one-half miles southeast of Nemaha previous to moving to town. She had done much for the betterment of the community in which she lived and will be sadly missed by all.
Susan I. Hall was born in Adams county, Ohio November 18, 1851 and departed this life December 29, 1929 at her home in Nemaha at the age of 78 years, 1 month and 11 days.
She was one of ten children. In 1870 she was married to W. H. Robinson. Two children were born to this union, M. R. Robinson of Lone Jack, Mo., and one daughter, Mae, who died in infancy. After the death of her husband she was married to George W. Shiveley on January 4, 1875 and six children were born to them.
In 1886 she moved with her husband and family from Ohio to Atchison county, Mo. In 1890 they moved to a farm in Aspinwall precinct in this county where they resided until 1901, when they moved to Nemaha, where she lived until her death. Her husband died in 1902.
Mrs. Shiveley is survived by her six children, M. R. Robinson of Lone Jack, Mo, G. W. Shiveley of Portland, Ore., J. A. Shiveley of Nemaha, C. P. Shiveley of Dell Rapids, S.D., Mrs. Ellen R. Sanders of Brookings, S.D., Mrs. Ora O. DeLong of Afton, Iowa, and two stepsons, J. W. Shiveley of Odessa, Mo, and J. L. Shively of Auburn and by 19 grandchildren and 6 great grandchildren. Other members of her family who survive are her sister, Mrs. Mary Robinson and brother, George Hall of Greenfield, Ohio. She united with the Christian church when a girl and remained faithful to her belief all the years of her life and always willing to do her part in her quiet, unassuming manner. Although her children were more than anxious to have her with them she wanted to be in her own home and during her last illness she remarked that she was so glad that she was in her own home. Her great joy was in doing for others. Among the noblest deeds of her life was the adoption of Roy Brown, and orphan child for whom she tenderly cared until he died at the age of 17 years. She was a wonderful mother to her children and grandchildren and a neighbor to everyone. The sympathy of the community goes out to the bereaved family, who miss her greatly.
The funeral was held from the Christian church in Nemaha Monday afternoon and was largely attended by old friends and neighbors.
