Obituary on March 10, 1910 from the Dansville Express newspaper: "The Late Nathan Moose Born In 1818 and Died in 1910

Mr. Nathan Moose of Sparta died Wednesday, Feb. 23, 1910 at 2:30 p.m. On Wednesday, Feb. 16, he was taken suddenly ill with violent chills followed with digestive disturbance. Before being seized with the chills he walked from the kitchen to the sitting room without aid of a cane, carrying it under his arm, at the same time eating a fresh fried cake. Seating himself on the couch, he was then taken with chills. Dr. F.R. Driesbach was summoned, and after a thorough examination, he found indications of gangrene in the left foot and limb. Mr. Moose was not confined to his bed more than two days, but his sufferings were intense, even with the strongest opiates to alliviate the pains. Mr. Moose had reached the advanced age of 91 years 4 months and 5 days. He was born in Northumberland County, Pa., October 18, 1818. At the age of three and a half years, his parents, Jacob & Catherine Bachman Moose moved from Pennsylvania to Sparta, the date April 30, 1822. His father purchased and settled on the farm now owned and occupied by Rev. Seymour E. Moose, three fourths of a mile north of Reed's Corners. Jacob Moose was the first settler by the name of Moose in New York state. The long tedious journey was made by wagon. When they arrived at Mauch Chunck, Pa., the wagon upset and Nathan was found underneath a large bureau about 7 feet tall, which he has kept as an old relic in his possesion for more than half a century. He was the seventh son without a daughter when his father Jacob Moose arrived in the town of Sparta. Consequently his mother had him assist her in doing the housework and being smaller in stature than his brothers, he was called the puny boy of the family. When quite a lad he had attacks of asthma which affliction was never fully overcome. His parents considered him to be the only puny or delicate child of their 12 children. Yet his powers of indurance were often times recognized. Before 45 years of age, he survived typhoid fever 3 times and pneumonia 5 times. Nathan Moose was of German decent, a descendant from an exceptionally strong, robust, constituted family. 9 brothers and 2 sisters having preceded him to the spirit world. Nathan being the last one to die of the late Jacob Moose children, whose names are as follows: Peter, Enoch, John, Joel, Reuben, Charles, Nathan, Maria, Daniel, Levi, David and Sally. Nathan Moose's parent's were German Lutheran's, they were devoted to the Christian faith and doctrine and as long as life permitted, grandfather Jacob read his German bible and offered a prayer daily in the German language. Many very interesting adventures died the deceased relate of early hardships and privations. For he has braved the labors of an unsettled country. He possessed the elements of a hero, has removed the wilderness and supplied its place with fields industry and opened up the rich and fertile lands to the advantage of mankind. He remarked a short time ago the fact that he had resided eighty-eight years within half a mile of the spot where he settled with his parents when they moved to Sparta from Pennsylvania, which is a longer period of time than any other person living or dead had ever resided in the town, as they were older than he, when they came to Sparta. The major part of his long and eventful life was spent in farming. His brothers were blacksmiths, excepting Daniel, who was a minister of the M.E. Church. In 1847, at the age of 30 years, he in partnership with his brother David, purchased the farm of David John's, a short distance of his fathers farm. The two bachelor brothers enjoyed their new home with their sister Maria as housekeeper.

About this time, a grocery store with a saloon was opened three fourths of a mile from their rural home at Reed's Corners, all kinds of intoxicants were freedly indulged in by their associates. The question uppermost in their mind was how shall we rid the community of the curse- the saloon? Nathan, with his brother David, visited the new store and saloon, one memorable evening for the express purpose of inducing the proprietor to give up selling of intoxicants, their arguments went to no avail. David was no coward and as he possessed an indomitable will, a characteristic trait in the family, he was to have his way and not to be rebuffed off. He advanced toward the proprietor, having straightened his figure to it's greatest height (being 6 feet tall) and powerfully built, and he politely informed him that he had sole the last glass of liquor at Reed's Corners. He at once began to clean out the saloon, the bottles were smashed, whiskey and beer barrels were opened and the contents run down the road like a river. Six men with the proprietor interfered in the destroying of the liquor, but they were all easily handled by this powerful man who successfully carried on the work of abolishing the first and last sallon ever in existence at Reed's Corners. When he finished the work, he left for home with a threat to the saloon keeper what he might expect would happen if he opened another saloon.

In the yar 1855, at the age of 30 years, occured the death of his brother David, who died suddenly of apoplexy. The farm was afterwards owned by Nathan. He was united in marriage with Matilda A. Reed of Sparta, the eldest daughter of the late John Reed & Rebecca Platt Reed, Aug. 8, 1850. She was of a merry, large hearted, generous nature. It was his great good fortune to have a dutiful and loving companion, who had inherited fine musical talent from her French mother. She was educated in vocal music of her day. Possessing a remarkably clear, sweet voice. She devoted er talents to do services of the choir for 40 years and contributed this gift to private and public entertainments. The saddened and sorrow hard to bear, the loss of his beloved estimable wife was realized June 15, 1895. She was deeply devoted to her husband and her name is a perfume of sweetness and blessing. Deceased seldom mentioned her name without a silent tear drop stealing down his cheek, speaking in language more eloquant than words, how deeply he revered the rememberance of her name. The needy never turned away from their home empty and all worthy objects received their cordial sympathy and support.

In April 1889, he purchased the home of the late Conrad Hamshere estate west of the Dutch Reformed Church in Sparta and moved to said place, May 1st, 1889. After the death of his wife he lived one year alone, after which time his eldest grandson, Morgan A. Moose and newly wedded wife came to reside with him. In 1903 he moved back to the old farm, occupied by his son Albert M., where he remained the rest of his life.

The funeral services were held in the Reed's Corners Church on Saturday at 12 o'clock, Feb. 26, 1910, the 21st birthday anniversary of his oldest granddaughter, Mrs. Dosia Weber May. The services were conducted by Rev. Hargrave of the Scotsburg and Sparta Methodist Church, the test 116th Psalm, 5th verse "Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his Saints".

Deceased leaves three children: David T. and Albert M. and Mrs. Elisha T. Webster of Webster Crossing; three grandsons, Morgan A., Nathan C. and Erwin S. of Sparta; two granddaughters, Mrs. Dosia Webster May of Springwater and Mrs. Bertha M.

Notes:

Joel was a farmer, carpenter and worked with the railroad for years. Alice Moose Oaks wrote of Joel, "He worked for Dad(Ted Moose), when we were young children. One day he was planting cabbage seedlings, stopped to look back to check on the straightness of the row, he saw Mary(Alice's older sister) a little was behind him, industriously pulling out each plant along the row. She got spanked- right then! He often stopped in just before we went to bed. He'd take us on his lap and recite 'This Little Pig' pulling our toes and cracking them as he said it. I dreaded the cracking of my toes, but liked to sit on his lap. Finding us in our night clothes when he came in is quite likely why Mary got the nickname of 'Bedbug' from Joel. In the summer of 1970 we called on Joel where he lived with his son, Claude, (since 1935). With poor vision and poor hearing to hamper his recognition of us, he knew at once when Mary said, 'This is Bedbugs!' We had a nice visit. His memory was very good. He was 91 years old at the time."

Obituary for David Ray Weidman
With hearts full of love and deep gratitude, we announce the passing of David Ray Weidman, who went home to be with the Lord on February 5, 2026. David was the kindest, sweetest, most loving, faithful, and generous man there ever was, and his life was a true reflection of Gods grace and goodness.
To know David was to know warmth, humility, and unwavering kindness. He had a gentle spirit and a heart that put others first in all things. He loved deeply, gave freely, and served quietly, never seeking recognition or praise. His generosity extended far beyond material thingshe gave his time, his encouragement, his wisdom, and his love without hesitation.
Davids faith was the cornerstone of his life. He walked closely with the Lord and lived his faith daily through compassion, patience, forgiveness, and steadfast trust in God. His life was a testimony, not just in words, but in actions. Those who knew him saw Christs love through the way he treated others and the way he loved his family.
David was a devoted and loving husband to his wife, Cher Weidman, and a proud and devoted father to his children, Heather Knight, Autumn Ritter, and his beloved late son, Sean Weidman, whom he carried in his heart every day. His greatest joy was his family, especially his grandchildren, Makhenna Knight, Cooper Ritter, and Adalyn Ritter, whom he adored beyond measure. He was a constant source of love, guidance, and encouragement, and his presence made everyone feel safe, valued, and deeply loved.
He is also lovingly remembered by his brothers, Mike Weidman and Doug Weidman, and his sisters, Gail Weidman and Karen Weidman, along with many extended family members and friends whose lives were forever touched by his kindness and faith.
Though our hearts are broken by his absence, we do not grieve without hope. We take comfort in knowing that David is now healed, restored, and reunited with his son Sean in the presence of his Savior. We cling to the promise of Scripture:
Well done, good and faithful servant. Matthew 25:21
Davids legacy of love, faith, generosity, and quiet strength will live on through his family and all those who were blessed to know him. He will be deeply missed, endlessly loved, and never forgotten.

Services will be held at Darby Funeral Home Chapel on Thursday February 12, 2026 at 5:00 PM
