Bio
William Sinnard, one of the pioneers of this county, died very suddenly Saturday evening at his home southeast of town. For the past six years Mr. Sinnard has been employed as engineer at the Albion mill. He was at his post Wednesday and Thursday when the mill was in operation last week and to all appearances was in his usual health. Saturday he was about town transacting business. That evening he ate a good supper and about eight o'clock, with the day's work done, sat down to read, but had barely become settled for the evening when he fell to the floor and in a moment was dead. William Sinnard was born near Springfield, Illinois, October 19th, 1849. Later he came to Sarpy county, Nebraska, following his parents who had already located there. January 4, 1876, he was united in marriage to Miss Mary F. Sack. To them were born four children, Mrs. Adkins and Mrs. Patton and a younger brother who reside near their parents, southeast of town, and Chas. Sinnard, who lives in Sarpy county. Mr. and Mrs. Sinnard and children came to Boone county in 1883, locating a few miles southeast of Albion, where they established their home. For a number of years, he operated a steam threshing outfit, and the balance of the time he devoted to farming, leaving that occupation a few years ago and taking a position with the Albion Milling Company. The deceased was a member of the Odd Fellow Lodge and held the most prominent positions in that order. The funeral was held Wednesday morning from the Christian church, D. J. Poynter preaching the sermon. The service was in charge of the Odd Fellow's lodge, veteran members of the order acting as pall bearers. The body was buried in Rose Hill cemetery. The deceased is survived by his wife and children and the sympathy of the community goes out to them in their hour of bereavement. (Albion Weekly News – Albion, Nebraska – June 3, 1915)
