  17. ↑ "George A., son of Selim Van Cortland and Margaret Cogswell, was bornJan. 2, 1854, at Lakeport, Midhigan, and departed this life at his homein Pleasant Lake, Ind. June 16, 1922, aged 68 years, 5 months and 14days. The deceased came to this county about 60 years ago and has beena countinuous resident ever since. About 30 years ago he moved with hisfamily from near Salem to Pleasant Lake, where he has taken an activeinterest in the affairs of this village. Those things that would makethe community better he has stood for, he has been a familiar figure atall of our special gatherings and in his work as a vetinary going in andout among the farmers he is remembered for his straight forward honestdealings with his fellow men and to say that he will be missed isputting it too mildly.
    Brother Cogswell united with the church of the United Brethren inChrist of Pleasant Lake, during the pastorate of Rev. McCloe and was amember at the time of his death. He was also for many years a member ofthe Masonic fraternity.
    On Jan. 27, 1876, he was united in marriage to Martha Ritter and tothis union were born three children, Mrs. Earl Tuttle, of Angola, Mrs.Sol Tuttle, of Pleasant Lake and one who died in infancy. Besides thetwo children and wife he is survived by one brother, Lester Cogswell,Auburn, three sisters, Sabra Harpham of Pleasant Lake, Martha Pattison,of Wyandotte, Mich., Kate Klink, of DeQueene, Arkansas, and two grandchildren, Chester Tuttle and Bertha Jean Tuttle.
    The immediate cause of his death was a stroke of appoplexy and when itcame he seemed to realize that his end had come. We shall miss BrotherGeorge from our village streets and from this community but in a bettercountry we expect to meet him again. Funeral services held at the latehome in Pleasant Lake and burial at Mt. Zion, Rv. F.B.Parker,officiating clergyman."
