Newspaper obituary for Ebenezer Sisson:
"Dr. E. B. Sisson Passed Away Sunday Night"
Dr. E. B. Sisson died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Thos. Morris, in this city on last Sunday night. The deceased had been in failing health for the past three or four years, his death being attributable to the infirmities of old age and a complication of trouble.
Dr. Sisson was 84 years of age and is survived by six children. He was thrice married, all of his wives preceding him to the grave. He had lived on Sugar Creek a great part of his life, but for the last few years had made his home here with his daughter, Mrs. Thomas Morris. He was well known over the county and his death will be regretted by all. Funeral services were held from the Paint Lick Baptist Church, of which deceased had been a faithful member, on Wednesday and the remains interred in the cemetery at that place.
