Obituary for George Trux [Trucks]
The Leader-Enterprise [Montpelier, Ohio], 27 August 1925, page 7.
George Trux was born at Montpelier, Ohio, Sept. 23, 1850; died at Lima, Ohio, Aug. 189, 1925, aged 74 years, 10 months and 25 days.
He was a son of Charles and Mary Elizabeth Trux, one of a family of nine children, four girls and five boys.
When just a babe he moved with his parents to the village of Montpelier, where he has lived ever since. Mr. Trux in point of number of years residence, was Montpelier's oldest resident.
February 16, 1873 he was married to Miss Mary Grubbs of Jefferson, Williams Co., O. To this union were born two daughters, Mrs. Louise Nicholas and Mrs. Florence Mann, both residing now at Lima, Ohio.
Mr. Trux was one of Montpelier's most highly respected citizens, a splendid neighbor, a devoted husband, a fond father, in all a most noble character.
He possessed an especial pride in his home town, and many of the buildings which line its streets bear ample testimony of his conscientious, painstaking work as an excellent craftsman.
For years, in a quiet yet substantial way, he has been a devoted and consistent member of the First Presbyterian church.
He leaves to mourn their loss, his two daughters, one grandson, George Nicholas, with other near and dear relatives, and a veritable host of friends. Mrs. Trux preceded him in death by about two years.
The simple, impressive funeral ceremonies were held Saturday, Aug. 21, at 2 p. m. at the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Younce, North Platt St., Rev. Charles D. Castle D. D., his pastor, officiating. Interment was made in Riverside cemetery.
