Samuel Joseph Wing
Samuel Joseph Wing died at the home of his daughter, Mrs.
Sarah Wing Jacobs, at Sugar City, Idaho, Jan. 23, 1918, from the result of a
paralytic stroke sustained some weeks before. He had made his home with Mrs.
Jacobs for about a year before death. The deceased was born in Illinois, Aug. 13,
1842, and in 1860 married Elizabeth Jane Wright, who bore him seven children, five
of whom are living. In 1861 he was baptized in the church of Jesus Christ of
Latter Day Saints, and in 1862 came to Utah, first settling at Draper, where he
taught school for some years. In 1875 he went to Heber, where he taught school
and also music. His wife died soon after coming to Heber. He had four other
wives all of whom have passed away, and he also had three other children from
these marriages. For fourteen years he was state superintendent of Sunday
Schools. He went to Canada in 1900 but returned to Utah in 1913, thereafter
making his home with his married daughters in Utah and Idaho. Accompanied by
most of his children, his body was brought to Heber for burial. The funeral
services were held in the state tabernacle, which was well filled with friends
an relatives. Councilor F. W. Giles of the Third Ward conducted the services,
the singing was by the Third Ward choir, W. A. Daybell offered the prayer, R. S.
Duke, A. G. Duke, J. C. Jensen, and Samuel J. Nichols (a grandson) spoke, and
George Smith gave the benediction. Many beautiful flowers, token of love from
friends, were in evidence. Samuel Joseph Wing was the son of Matthias and
Elizabeth M. (Chenoweth) Wing (Joseph, Giles, Joseph, Matthew, Stephen, Rev.
John, Matthew)[This Lineage is wrong - DNW]. A Complete bigraphical sketch appeared at page 1175 and his
portrait with that of three brothers appeared as a frontis piece in the June 1913,
number of The Owl.
