• No Name, Aug 1947, Solon Township, , Michigan, USA. Aug 1947 Solon Township, Michigan PFP obituary read: Delmar
Mabie is Taken by Death. One of the pioneer residents of the
community, Delmar Mabie, died August 10, following an illness
of more than a year. He was born in Solon Township near White
Creek June 24, 1865 on the farm where he died. His father took
up the farm as a land grant from the government. At the age of
14, Del Mabie, cast his lot with the great lumber industry of
Michigan. As the forests receded to the north before the
onslaught of the lumberman, he followed them, working in many
sections of the state. At various times he was riverman,
shingle weaver, sawyer, and setter. He worked in the last
sawmill in Cedar Springs as the last "old timer" in the
community who had the knowledge and the physical ability to act
as a setter on the carriage. In 1903 Mr. Mabie turned his full
time to farming at the family farm in north Solon. For many
years he served as a member of the school board in his
community, and also served his township as a Justice of the
Peace. During all of his life, Mr. Mabie was keenly interested
in hunting, fishing and conservation. Rev. R. F. Barram,
conducted the funeral services Tuesday afternoon at Walshes'
Funeral Home and interment was in Crandall cemetery. Mr. Mabie
is survived by his widow, Nettie R. Mabie; by four sons, Don of
Cedar Springs, Roy of Sand Lake, Lowell of Muskegon, and Vern
of Mt. Pleasant by nine grandchildren.
