William was my g.g. grandfather. I found William's obituary at Clearfield Historical society. Here is what it says....William H. Wagoner died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. James Wood, in Chest township, March 31, 1903, aged 84 years. He was born at Middletown, Cumberland County, on the 30th of January 1819, and was the son of William and Mary Wagoner. On the 12th of September, 1839, he was married to Miss Katherine Rorabaugh. To this union were born twelve children. One son and five daughters survive him: Henry Wagoner, of Sylvis; Mary A. Young, of Patton; Filinda Wood, of Five Points; Adeline Michael, Five Points; Sarah E. Gallaher, Oil City; Emma Gallaher, Flinton. He has 43 grandchildren and 66 great grandchildren. He was converted in 1841, and was a constant member of the Evangelical church.

sorry this is the rest of it.We miss the in our home, dear father.

We miss thee from thee place.

A shadow o'er our life is cast.

We miss the sunshine of thy face.

We miss thy kind and willing hand.

Thy fond and earnest care.

Our home is dark without thee.

We miss thee everywhere.

This was from the Raftsmen Journal 3 June 1903.

I created a new profile for the William in TN and changed this to the William in PA. I copied the TN specific profile items to the new profile and removed them here so it is cleaner.
