From newspaper obituaries of Julius Sylvanus Sisson:
"The community was again saddened when the news of the death of Mr. J. S. Sisson came Friday, following that of his wife which had occurred three days before.

Both of these elderly people had been taken ill with flu and Mr. Sisson, not realizing that both were seriously ill, had been caring for Mr.s Sisson for more than a week, when both were taken to the hospital.

He left Iowa with his parents when eleven years old, in a covered wagon for Kansas, and grew to manhood there on his father's farm. Early in life he had a desire for an education and after finishing the grade school and high school, he went to Baker University and secured a job as janitor of that institution, working his way through school.

Mr. Sisson had learned the barber trade and worked at that trade nine years in Cameron and Maysville and part time with his brother Lee."

"He was united in marriage January 8, 1879 to Miss Alice Trim. The wedding occurred at Ottawa, Kansas and it is said that Mr. Sisson walked seven miles through the deep snows to claim his bride.

For a good while he was in the barber business in Maysville, but retired from that business a good many years ago and in the later years had devoted a large part of his time to operating a fruit farm at the northern edge of Maysville."

Van married (MRIN:3329) Alice Viola TRIM-8510, daughter of Alvin TRIM-12242 and Mary Elizabeth GOWAN-12037 (MRIN:3848), on 8 Jan 1879 in Ottawa, Franklin Co., Kansas. Alice was born on 8 Jan 1861 in Baldwin, Kansas. She died on 7 Apr 1931 in St Joseph, Missouri. She was buried in Oaklawn Cemetery.
