"J. B. is the youngest of the family [of John S. and Sarah (Reed) Deeter], and has devoted his life to farming: his early education was limited to the common school; his energy and industry, directed by his skill, has made his career as a farmer a success; he finds his religious creed in the German Baptist Church, of which he and his wife are consistent members, and in which he has held the office of Deacon since he was 22 years old. He was married in October, 1873, to Angie Younce, of Union Township; she was born in November, 1854, and is the daughter of Larkin Younce. A son and daughter have been the issue of this union."
