"UNCLE" JOHN BLUE, CIVIL WAR VETERAN, DEAD.
"Uncle" John Blue, one of the oldest and best known citizens of St. Francois County, died yesterday morning at eight o'clock at his home in Farmington. He had been failing rapidly for about three weeks and had been especially feeble for the past week, confined to his bed for the greater part of the time. He had a sinking spell at ten o'clock Wednesday morning, from which he did not rally. He was 90 days, two months and two days of age. The funeral will be held at the home this afternoon at three o'clock, the service to be conducted by Dr. J. E. Kerr, pastor of the Farmington Presbyterian Church. Interment will be in the Farmington K. of P. cemetery.
John W. Blue was born August 1, 1840, in Ste. Genevieve County, eight miles northeast of Farmington. He was the son of the late William and Mary Schilling Blue. He was the youngest and last surviving member of a family of thirteen children.
He lived all of his life in and near Farmington with the exception of the years he spent in service in the Confederate Army during the Civil War. He served throughout the war in the cavalry under Gen. Forrest, operating in Mississippi and Louisiana. He was never wounded. On more than one occasion, however, he received bullet holes in his clothing.
At the close of the Civil War in 1866, he was united in marriage to Miss Lavinia [Lou V. ?] Haile at Water Valley, Miss. He brought his bride to this county, the couple settling on the old Blue homestead in Ste. Genevieve County where they lived until they came to Farmington about 45 years ago. To this union were born six children, all of whom survived, except one daughter, Mrs. Annie Lloyd, who died here about five years ago. The wife and mother also preceded the husband in death. The surviving children are Miss Minnie, at home; Mrs. M. H. Topping and Norman, of Los Angeles, Calif.; Barney, of Red Bud, N.J., and Ernest of Poplar Bluff. He also leaves eight grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
"Uncle" John Blue was one among the few surviving men in St. Francois County who "teamed" the old plank road between Iron Mountain and Ste. Genevieve, hauling iron ore for transportation up and down the Mississippi. He has said there were about one hundred teams engaged in hauling ore over this famous highway, that it required five days to make the round trip and that they received 25 cents a hundred for hauling the ore.
After coming to Farmington and prior to the building of the electric railway from Farmington to DeLassus, "Uncle" John for many years, carried the express between these two points. He employed a hack and team of horses in this work.
"Uncle" John Blue was one of the fine old men of this community who will be greatly missed from his accustomed place.
Note: The clipping I have of the above obit from the Farmington Public Library is undated, however, using dates contained in the obit, I calculate that his death occurred on or about Oct. 3, 1930. Click on icon below to view scan of photo of Uncle John Blue which was published with obit.
*There's a tombstone next to John W. Blue's at the Knights of Pythias Cemetery with the name "Lou V. Blue". I believe this is his wife (identified above as "Lavinia"). The
dates on the stone are Oct. 1, 1844 - Apr. 15, 1908. The transcription on John W. Blue's stone is as follows:

John Blue's son, John W. Blue (1940-1930) was born in Ste. Genevieve, Missouri and lived nearly his entire life in Farmington, Missouri about twenty-five [miles] from Ste. Genevieve. Minnie Blue and Anna Blue Lloyd are listed as John's daughters. Minnie never married and lived in Farmington in the house she inherited after her father's death. Minnie died in 1947.

Gone to join the angel band,
And we hope to meet you,

WILLIAM NELSON PASSED AWAY SATURDAY; R. R. EMPLOYEE 33 YEARS:
William Nelson, aged 64 years, 2 months and 24 days, passed away at his home here Saturday afternoon, August 6th, after an illness of several month's duration. Although the deceased had been in poor health for some time and his condition was considered very serious, his family and many friends had held hope for his recovery. On March 4th of this year it became necessary for him to get a leave of absence from his duties as an engineer on the M. R. & B. T. Ry. He received medical treatment here for a while but later went to Hot Springs, Arkansas, where everything that could possibly be done was done to restore his health. He returned home recently and constantly grew weaker until his death.
Mr. Nelson was born in Copenhagen, Denmark, March 12, 1843. He was united in marriage to Mary Watts of New Douglas, Illinois in the year of 1891 and to this union three children were born, one girl and two boys, namely: Arthur of Wilmington, Deleware, Edward of Louisville, Kentucky, and Mrs. Anton Parrach of Stanton, Illinois. His companion preceded him in death a number of years ago. In 1903 he was united in marriage to Mrs. Anna Fleming of Monticello, Indiana, who with the above named children survive him.
The deceased has made his home in Bonne Terre for a number of years having been an employee of the M. R. & B. T. Ry. for 33 years. He was a member of the Lutheran Church and also an ardent and devoted member of the local K. of P. Lodge and the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers. He was one of the city's most prominent citizens, having held at all times the deepest interest in the betterment and upbuilding of the community. Needless to say that his passing has caused genuine sorrow in the hearts of those who knew him. The large number who gathered to pay their last respects to him and the numerous beautiful floral offerings partially conveyed the esteem in which the deceased was held.
The funeral service was held at the Baptist Church at 3:30 Tuesday afternoon and was conducted by the pastor, Rev. J. B. Ragsdale, after which the remains were laid to rest in the local cemetery.
To the bereaved relatives and host of friends we extend sincere sympathy.
