    • LEANDER DRULLINGER
      Leander Drullinger was born in Dark County, Ohio, Feb. 11, 1846, and died at his home southeast of Hartford, June 11, 1912.
      The family moved from their home in Ohio to Randolph county, Ind., when he was a young man. From there, when he was twenty years old, he with his family came to Michigan and located in Keeler township where he resided up to the time of his death.
      He was married to Jennie Swits, of Silver Creek, December 12, 1869,and to this union three daughters were born. He was taken sick sometime ago with locomotor ataxis, and at times was quite a sufferer. Although his death was expected, yet it came suddenly, and on June the 11th he passed quietly away. The funeral services were held at the home, June 14, conducted by Rev. F. L. Niles, and the body was taken to the Keeler cemetery for interment.
