ROBERT BAIRD BINGAMAN
Robert Baird Bingaman, son of Christian and Amanda Bingaman, the youngest of a family of ten children, was born August 23, 1874 in Monroe county, Iowa. He passed peacefully away Thursday, November 28, 1940, at the University hospital in Iowa City after an illness of three months which wasn't thought serious until a few days before his death, at the age of 66 years, 3 months and 5 days.
He was united in marriage to Elsie Josephine Molesworth on March 15, 1899, at the home of her parents in Lucas county. To this union twelve children were born all of whom are living except one, Christian M., who died in infancy.
He is survived by his companion of forty-one years and children, Alfred Bingaman, of Los Angeles, California; Mrs. Lois L. Channell of Rio Linda, California; Mrs. Mary L. Sanders, of Knoxville, Iowa; Mark D. Bingaman, of Washington, D. C.; Mrs. E. Marie Burgett, S. Lowell Bingaman, Paul C. Bingaman; Mrs Mildred O. Wright, Mrs. Ina V. Garland, Mrs. Eathel L. VanZee and Dorothy Joy Bingaman, of Chariton; also thirteen grandchildren, Virginia, Alan, Dale S., Leila Rae and Ned Bingaman, of Los Angeles; Elsie, Junior and Dillman Channell, of Rio Linda; Margery and Marlene Burgett, of Chariton; Connie Mae Sanders, of Knoxville; Betty Bingaman, of Chariton; and Robert Lester VanZee, of Chariton; two brothers, Daniel C. and James F.., and one sister, Rachel A., of Chariton, and many other relatives and friends.
His wife and children remained at his bedside constantly administering all that loving hands could do. His entire life was spent on a farm in Monroe and Lucas counties with the exception of three years, two in Kansas and one in Oregon. His interests were always in his family and church. He was a devoted husband and kind, loving father and will be greatly missed by all who knew him.
At the age of nine years he was wonderfully saved at the Oakdale M. E. church and later united with the church. He received the blessings of entire sanctification at the camp meeting under the ministry of B. S. Taylor at the age of twenty, which experience he enjoyed and proclaimed to the end. Later he received a call to the ministry and was always ready to do pastoral and revival work when called.
In 1912 he helped organize and build the Nazarene church at Chariton of which he was a charter member. His faithfulness to the church was shown by his active service in all departments of the church and Sunday school.
Largely attended funeral services were held Sunday afternoon December 1, at 2:30 o'clock at the Nazarene church in Chariton, conducted by District Superintendent Rev. Hardy C. Powers, of Des Moines assisted by Rev. and Mrs. R. R. Rehfeldt, of Burlington, and his pastor, Rev. Harold Thon, of Chariton. Interment was in the Oxford cemetery.
