Ira S. Holcomb
Chenango Semi-Weekly Telegraph, December 18, 1893
Ira S. Holcomb, an esteemed citizen, well known and respected throughout the county, died suddenly at his residence in the town of Plymouth [Chenango Co., NY], Tuesday evening, December 5th, of organic disease of the heart. He had been somewhat in poor health for about two years, but still able to be around, this fall making a visit with friends in Michigan, and recently his health had appeared unproved. Consequently the suddenness of his death was a great shock to the family and through the entire community. Deceased was born in the house where he died January 4, 1827, and was one of a family of six children, three of whom, Augustus Holcomb, of Norwich, William Holcomb, of Jersey City, and Mrs. George Cashman, of Plymouth, are still living. In 1845 he went to Wisconsin where he lived about two years. Returning to Plymouth, he engaged in the mercantile trade in company with John Sibley. In 1855, he was married to Matilda [Starr], daughter of Rev. Charles Starr. In 1858, he bought the old homestead where he has since resided. Through no fault of his own, except that of generosity, he had met with adversity, but through his persistent efforts backed by an indomitable determination, his circumstances were such that he was just ready to enjoy life. His widow, one son and three daughters survive him. In politics he was an earnest Republican, prominent in his party and twice representing his town on the board of supervisors. His funeral was largely attended from his late residence, Friday, December 8th.
