Mr. Caskey spent his early childhood on the farm completing the grad school, after which he attended Amity college for two years, at College Springs six miles south of the old home. He united with the Clarinda congregation of the Reformed Presbyterian church in early manhood. Coming to Oklahoma in 1901 his membership was transferred to the Billings congregation. He engaged for a short time in the draying business in Billings giving this up to take charge of the North Valley school which he taught for two and one-half years. He continued to teach in Noble and Garfield counties for several years. In the fall of 1905 he took a homestead in Beaver county. He was united in marriage on June 24, 1908, to Caroline Klufa to which union six children were born, one dying in infancy. After marriage they made their home on the homestead in Beaver county where he continued to teach school and farm. Leaving Beaver county in 1914 he moved to Helena where he operated a flour mill for six years. In 1920 he moved to Enid and from there to North Enid in 1921 where he resided until his death.

He became afflicted with mastoid infection in1920 which inflicted severe suffering. He underwent three operations for this trouble which left him in a weakened condition, from which he never fully recovered. In this affliction he did not complain, leaving all to the Heavenly Father in whom he was taught to trust in childhood. We who are left know that we mourn not as those who have no hope and let us pray that we may be as well prepared as he to meet our Creator when the summons comes. Besides the widow of the home he leaves five children, Ruth, Eugene, Thelma, Lorene and Lawrence to mourn his loss. Father and mother, one brother and one sister preceded him in death.

| 2935 | Obituary from Find a Grave and Kim Thompson: Prominent Farmer Is Laid to Rest. In the death of James Wallace Baird, which occurred September 27th (1923), the community suffers a real loss. He was one who could be depended upon, clear spoken, and ever ready to help those in need. His kindly counsel will be greatly missed. He was born September 18, 1847, in Louisa County, Iowa, and died at is home near Mediapolis, Iowa, nine days after his seventy-sixth birthday. On April 7th, 1871, he was united in marriage to Mary Ann Walkenshaw and had lived in the home where he passed away, fifty years.

Baird, who passed away in 1910. The remaining children are: Mrs. Minnie L. Carithers, Edmund A., Merrill W., Oliver E., Ralph E., Oscar M., Mrs. Lena May Robertson and Mrs. Blanche U. Thompson. Early in life he joined the Sharon Reformed Presbyterian church where, in after years, he served faithfully as deacon, and to the end of his life he was treasurer until failing health made it impossible, Mr. Baird was to be found regularly at the church he loved on the Sabbath day. Those who were bending over him in his last moments caught his last words "The Almighty has power." Funeral services were conducted at Sharon church and he was buried at Sharon cemetery, Saturday, September 29, 1923. Morning Sun News-Herald, 4 Oct 1923 | Baird, James Wallace (I390)

| 2937 | Obituary from Find a Grave and Kim Thompson: The Morning Sun News-Herald. Mrs. Catharine McElhinney-Baird was born near Londonderry, Ireland, August 10th, 1822. She departed this life April 14th, 1900. When about 3 years old she came with her parents to the United States, and after residing a series of years In Pennsylvania and New York; emigrated to Iowa, with the rest of the family, where they arrived April 15, 1840. She lacked a single day of having lived in [outside?] the state 60 years. She was married to John Baird in Philadelphia, March 12, 1840. Mr. Baird's death occurred on July 4th, 1881, so that she lived in widowhood almost 19 years. She was in the truest sense of the word a mother. Five sons and six daughters live to mourn her death. One child died in early life. Her grandchildren number 29, and her great-grandchildren, 3. She was eminently practical in all her life work. "She managed her affairs with discretion." She loved her church devoutly, and understood the principles upon which It stood. She attended church when it cost her much effort, and when she felt unable to go any other place. During her last illness, her mind was unusually clear; her anticipation of the approaching end was with a quiet faith, a comfortable hope, a well grounded assurance. In herself she saw nothing on which to depend. In Jesus Christ she saw all that her soul desired. Her end came painlessly and peacefully, like the light of the morning-star that does not set but melts away into the clearer light of the eternal day. "Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright for the end of that man is peace." The funeral was attended by a vast concourse of people and among the mourners were a large number of early settlers. We note year by year how their number is being diminished. The emigrants are again emigrating -- this time to a land where infirmities of age, and sickness, and sorrow, and separation are words unknown. May their posterity be as true to the right and as loyal to duty as the fathers and mothers were. "Show thy work unto thy servants, and thy glory unto their children." | McElhinney, Catherine (I657)

| 2938 | Obituary of I.B. Caskey Isaac Beniah Caskey was born in Green county, Alabama, December 23, 1948, and died at his home three miles east of Billings, Saturday, February 26, 1910, at the age of 62 years, 2 months and 3 days, of a complication of troubles. When he was but two years of age his parents moved to Cook county, Illinois, where they lived for seven years. They then moved to Clarinda, Iowa, where Mr. Caskey grew to manhood, and at the age of twenty-four years was united in marriage to Nancy E. Andrews. To them were born thirteen children; eight sons and five daughters, all of whom are living except one son who died in infancy. Those living are Samuel J. and George A. of Beaver, Oklahoma; Mrs. A.W. Hensleigh of Superior, Nebraska; Mrs. M.A. Black of Idana, Kansas; Mrs. B.C. Terry of Billings; Edith E., Clyde J., William I., Joseph A., Albert B., Glenn J. and Beth J., all at home. Mr. Caskey moved to Oklahoma in 1901 from Clarinda, Iowa, and purchased a farm miles west of Billings, where he resided several months, when he purchased and moved onto the farm that has since been his home. In these nine years of residence here he grew into a wide acquaintance, as evidenced by the large gathering of friends at the time of his burial on last Tuesday afternoon. To know Mr. Caskey was to appreciate his worth as a man. At the age of twenty-five he was chosen as an elder in the Reformed Presbyterian church of Clarinda, Iowa, of which he became a member in early youth. In 1904 he was chosen elder of the R.P. church of Billings, in which relationship he continued till death. All mourn his departure but “his works do follow him” and that blessing will continue to be enjoyed by his church and the community. The sympathy of a host of friends goes out to the sorrowing ones.

She was a faithful and consistent member of the Presbyterian church to the end. Her life stands as a grand testimony for rightousness. Twenty-two years ago her husband was afflicted with partial paralysis, and for two years she had to feed him with a spoon and all these years she has faithfully ministered unto his wants. She is now at rest with her Lord; we are sometimes in doubt whether or not our friends have made a good exchange of worlds, but in Margaret Shields there is no room for doubt. The funeral services on Monday were conducted by Rev. J.A. B. Oglevee who had been her pastor for six years at Perry. A large number of sympathizing friends attended these last sad rites.
