Shubal Julian, who settled in Wayne County in 1813, quietly passes away.

Died on March 12, 1886, at his late residence in Cadis, Henry County, Indiana, Shubal Julian, aged ninety-four years, less one month and two days, his birthday having been April 14, 1792.

At his death he was the oldest man in Henry County, and one of the oldest inhabitants of the state, in the county, having settled in the territory in 1813, and thenceforward having been a citizen, first of Wayne, and then of Henry County.

Shubal Julian belonged to a large and well-known family, who were descended from the French, settled first in South Carolina, whither they fled when expelled from France on account of their religious views. Subsequently the family removed to Virginia, settling near Winchester, where they continued to reside until after Braddock's defeat, when, to avoid trouble with the Indians, they removed to Guilford County, North Carolina.

Isaac Julian, the father of the subject of this notice, had twelve sons and daughters , all of whom, together with himself, at various times between 1808 and 1815 made their home in Wayne County, Indiana, except his two oldest sons.

Shubal Julian was an upright man, a Christian gentlemen, fond of books and well informed, he was a good talker, a pleasant companion and a welcomed visitor everywhere. He was beloved by all who knew him, and no man in the community in which he lived, it is safe to say, would be more missed or regretted than he will be. He was the grandfather of Mrs. Dr. Hasty and Mrs. Barth of Indianapolis, and the uncle of George W. and Isaac Julian, formerly of this city.
