EARLY HISTORY OF WOODSTOCK
from the marble monument erected to her memory by loving hands. Soon after his wife died he removed to Kansas, where he went down like a shock of corn fully ripe and fit for his Master's use, honored and respected by all who knew him. He was the son of Abraham and Loretta Osborn, who were reared amidst the perils of Revolutionary times. They came from their old home near Ithaca, New York, at an advanced age, with their son, Samuel, and settled on section four, about the year 1836. Grandfather Abraham was a soldier of the Revolution, and Grandmother Loretta was one of those who escaped the massacre at Wyoming.
