Obituary

Frank B. Haney was born August 8, 1878, in Saline county, Nebraska, the son of
Benjamin and Emma Haney. He died at Jordan, Mont., Nov. 19, 1942, aged 64
years, three months and 11 days. Mr. Haney's residence here dates from 1912.
He was married in 1900 to Lillian Williams, to which union two children were
born-- Alfred Haney and Mrs. Nellie Burchett, both of Jordan. Survivors
besides the widow are two sisters, Carrie Conner, Bruner, Mo., Mary Beem of
Hyannis, Neb.; five brothers, T.D. of Wilbur, Neb., Homer of Omaha, Neb., and
James, George and Rufus of Hyannis, Neb.; and nine grandchildren.

The death of this sturdy pioneer came as a severe shock to the immediate
members of the family, and particularly to his devoted wife. They were
inseparable companions.
One Sunday, last July 12th, 150 people gathered at the Haney home on Hell
creek, 20 miles from Jordan, to help celebrate the 42nd wedding anniversary of
the late Mr. Haney and his wife. That occasion was one of many incidents
indicative of the high esteem in which he and his life-companion were held by
the community in general.

Bray & Rudolph, the Miles City morticians, had charge of the funeral
arrangements.
