    E.G. JAMIESON IS DEAD AT 90

    Edmund G. (Ted) Jamieson, 90, of 1325 Twenty-fifth Avenue, well-known Moline resident and member of a pioneer Moline family, died at 1:55 yesterday afternoon (November 16) in Moline Public hospital.

    Mr. Jamieson was born in Middleton Dale, Derbyshire, England, Aug. 25, 1860. His grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Jamieson, had been among Rock Island county's earliest settlers, coming to South Moline township from England in 1842.

    Mr. Jamieson's father, William Jamieson, who was 11 years old when the family came to Rock Island county, returned to England as a young man, and the son was born in that country.

    The family returned to South Moline when Mr. Jamieson was 11 months old. Mr. Jamieson was the last surviving pupil of the original Wells school log cabin structure, built in 1849, when he attended in 1866. He also attended school in Moline.

    He was a life resident of his community, with the exception of four years during his young manhood, which he spent in Rossville, Kansas and in Colorado.

    He married Sarah Delle McAdams in Rossville, Kansas, January 25, 1882.

    The couple came to Illinois after the marriage, settling on the family homestead in South Moline. Mr. Jamieson operated a coal mine in what was then Coaltown and farmed until his retirement in 1916. He later moved to Moline. For many years he entertained acquaintances with stories of pioneer life in this area.

    Surviving are a daughter, Miss Nellie Jamieson, at home; three sons, Harry f. and Stewart M. Jamieson, both of Moline, and Reuben E. Jamieson of Rock Island; seven grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. A son, Frank, died last June. Mrs. Jamison died July 18, 1945. He was also preceded in death by a sister and six brothers.

    Funeral services were held at 3:00 Saturday afternoon in Knox-Trimble funeral home, the Rev. J.K. Patterson of First Presbyterian Church, East Moline officiating. Burial was in Bowlesburg cemetery.
