Notes: 1861, 1871, 1881 Census James, their father, was crippled with arthritis before the turn of the century. Obed could barely remember him working. Eventually he was confined to a chair (now possessed by my daughter, Paula Monk)with his hands and legs permanently bent so that he was buried in a deep coffin with his knees up. Evening and morning he was carted up and down stairs in the chair. He was in permanent pain and sometimes wished to die, eventually succumbing through weakness to a respiratory infection.
