Reading Times Aug 7 1891, p. 4 ```````````````` In White Bear, Robeson Township, Mordecai Beard, aged 65 years, 1 month and 16 days. The relatives and friends are respectfully invited to attend the funeral from his late residence in Robeson township, at White Bear, on Monday morning, at 10 o'clock. Services and interment at St James Lutheran church, Geigertown. Reading Eagle Aug 9 1891, p.6 In the 1860 census record his wife is Elizabeth with children Elva and Sarah(Sally); in 1870 his wife is Maryann nee Morris, children Elva, Cameron(Simon), and Annie. Elizabeth must have died after birth of Annie in 1865 and 1870. Mary nee Morris was his wife when he died and there was no issue given in her obituary. Son Simon is given with a mother of Mary Kohler in his death certificate; probably should be Elizabeth Kohler. Research pending.
