OBITUARY - Woodson Martin [Provided by Marilyn Kirkpatrick .. from filmed copy of 'The Western Light' newspaper, Vol.3,No.25 dated December 19, 1877..State Historical Society of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa.] Died on the 4th day of Dec. 1877, at his residence in Shueyville, Johnson Co., Iowa, Woodson Martin, in the 81st year of his age. Father Martin was born in Nelson County, Va. June 18, 1797. In early manhood he moved to Augusta county, that state, where by honest industry and honorable dealing he secured the confidence and respect of his neighbors. In 1815 he removed, with his family, to Upshur county, West Va., where he resided eleven years. In 1856 he, with most of his family, came to Shueyville, where, among former neighbors, surrounded by most of his family, he lived respected to the time of his death. Father Martin lived many years without a saving interest in Christ Always friendly to religion, respecting God's house and his people; supporting the cause of Christ as he had means, he yet suffered his companion and a number of his children to enter the Christian church without him. But a few years since, during a series of meetings in the church at Shueyville, he came, tottering under the weight of years, a penitent to the altar of prayer. After seeking for several evenings, he professed to have found the "pearl of great price." The writer of this notice, conversed with him, in reference to his prospects beyond the grave, a few days, and again only an hour, before his death, when he said that all was right. Thus, at the eleventh hour, he entered his Masters vineyard, and is gone to receive "whatsoever is right." On Thursday, he was buried in the Shueyville grave yard, by the side of his companion, who preceded him a few years. J. E. B
