S. Taggart, son of Larman and Louisa Taggart, was born in Warren County, Missouri, July 31, 1850, the fourth child of a group of seven daughters and two sons. He departed this life November 29, 1936 at the age of 86 years, 3 months and 29 days. His early boyhood was spent in Moniteau County, Missouri. At the age of 12, he moved with his parents to Johnson County, Missouri, where he grew to manhood and later made his home. In 1920 he moved to Cimarron County, Oklahoma to be near his children. He was married to Martha A. Snare, January 28, 1874. To this union were born three sons and two daughters: Charles J. Taggart, Calvin Taggart, John L. Taggart and Mrs. J.C. Alexander. A daughter, Grace Pearl died in early girlhood. He leaves his faithful wife and companion, three sons, one daughter, 12 grandchildren, 4 great-grandchildren, one aged sister, numerous other relatives and a host of friends to mourn his departure. He was converted in early life and joined the Presbyterian Church in Denton, Missouri where his membership remained until the time of his death. He always enjoyed religious services and attended church as long as he was able to do so, and whenever possible attended the last service of a friend or neighbor. He was a kind, affectionate husband and father, indulgent to his family and children who will miss his kindly advice and love for many years. His failing eyesight deprived him of many of the pleasures of life but he always enjoyed visiting friends. His passing leaves a sadness in the homes of his faithful companion and children. Funeral services were held at the Keyes M.E. Church with the Rev. W. A. Darden officiating, assisted by the Rev. Garcel Brenn, pastor of the Keyes M. E. Church with the Wilder Funeral Home in charge. Dearest father, thou has left us, We thy loss most deeply feel, But tis God who has bereft us And He can all our sorrows heal. O silent grave, to thee we trust, This precious part of earthly dust, Guard it safe, O sacred tomb Until we, his family, ask for room. _________ Boise City News Boise City, Oklahoma December 3, 1936 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
