Surnames: Buchanan, Harris Classification: Death Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/5d.2ADI/3537 Message Board Post: New Plymouth Outlook New Plymouth, Idaho Friday, March 18, 1904 D. M. Buchanan, who recently left for Nebraska, and who died at Lincoln, Nebraska, March 4, was a member of the Woodman lodge at New Plymouth and his beneficiary Mrs. Buchanan, is left $2,000. The home paper of the deceased writes of him as follows: "D. M. Buchanan was born in Muskingum county, Ohio, March 16, 1843. With his parents he moved to Wisconsin in 1860 and while living there was married to Clarissa Harris. Unto them were born seven sons, five of whom are still living. He moved to Boone county, Nebraska, in 1880 and settled on a most beautiful piece of school land four miles south of Albion. A few years ago he sold this and not so very long after this the minds of both he and his wife seemed to be so affected that they were sent to the asylum. After a few months he apparently regained his normal condition, came home and then went west. Returning to Nebraska early this year he appeared quite well and rational but in a few days was worse than ever, and was tak! en to Lincoln, where he died March 4th. About three months ago Mrs. B. returned home and it was hoped they could spend the remainder of their days together. But this reunion was of short duration."
