THOMAS JOB

Banner Times, July 17, 1890

Thomas Job died last Friday after an illness of several weeks. He leaves a wife and nine children to mourn his loss. Mr. Job was born in Wayne County, IN in 1812 and was a son of Samuel and Rachel (Call) Job, natives of North Carolina and of English-German ancestry. Mr Job came to this country in 1827, and with the exception of a few years spent in Missouri this has been his residence ever since. He was married in Floyd township in 1831 to Miss Mary Gibson, who died in 1834, leaving one child, Louis, now living in Missouri. In 1835 Mr. Job married Nancy M. Ellis. They have eight children from this union. Mr. Job was a well respected farmer. He started in life poor and endured hardships and privations which the pioneers all went through and all he has, has been obtained by the sweat of his brow. The neighborhood will miss a good neighbor and the county a good citizen. In politics he affliated with the Democratic party. His family has the sympathy of the entire community.
