The Miller County Autogram, Thursday, March 31, 1932
Jesse W. Burks entered into rest at his home in Ulman, March 23, 1932. He was born near Iberia on April 12, 1850, being 81 years, 11 months and 11 days old. He was the only remaining one of Allen Burks' family.
He was united in marriage to Alcena Lansdown October 10, 1871, and to this union five children were born, all living except one, who died in infancy. They are Walter Burks, Mrs. Josie Nixdorf, Mrs. Lou Bass and Mrs. Chas. Bass, all of Ulman.
Mr. Burks lost his first wife in death and he was again united in marriage to Alice Barr, March 11, 1900, and to this unioni two children were born, Mrs. Tracy McDonald of Iberia and Mrs. Dorothy Watkins of Ulman. He also leaves to cherish his memory 12 grandchildren and 4 great-grandchildren.
He was afflicted with cancer and had been confined to his home for several months. He bore his sufferings in a cheerful and uncomplaining manner. He was indeed a faithful husband, a loving father and a highly respected citizen by everyone who knew him. His life should ever be an example worthy for us to pattern after.
Funeral services were conducted at the Ulman Christian Church on March 24th at 11 o'clock, before a large crowd of sorrowing friends. The services were conducted by Rev. Scott of Eldon, after which the body was laid to rest in the Hickory Point Cemetery.
