Web site: http://rootsweb.ancestry.com/~neplatte/vitals/vitals1932.html The Columbus Daily Telegram, September 23 (?), 1932 BATTY--Funeral Tomorrow – Funeral services for George Batty, 76, of Hardin, Mont., who died in Hardin at 2 p.m. Saturday, following a three weeks illness, will be held at 10 a.m. tomorrow at the Gass Funeral chapel, with Rev. W. H. Talmage, rector of the Episcopal church officiating. The body arrived here at 2:25 p.m. this afternoon on the Union Pacific eastbound train No. 16 and will lie in state at the funeral home until the hour of the services. Miss Hannah Batty, of Hardin, a sister with whom he made his home for the last eight years, accompanied the body here. Prior to eight years ago when he went to Hardin, Mr. Batty lived here with his brother-in-law and sister Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Barnica, now of Big Springs, Neb. Born near Philadelphia, Pa., on Apr 29, 1856, Mr. Batty came to Nebraska with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Batty, when a young man. They homesteaded on a tract of land near Clarks, where they resided for many years. He, too, took up farming near Clarks, and after a number of years, sold his farm and went to the Philippine Islands, where he worked as teamster for the government for one year. Upon his return he joined a prospecting crew, and went to Alaska, where he remained for one year. When he returned he lived with relatives in Omaha for several years, and then came here to live with the Barnicas. He never married. Besides his sister, Miss Hannah, with whom he made his home at Hardin, he is survived by three other sisters, Mrs. Lucy Batty of Hardin, Mont., Mrs. Hannah Rich of Las Vegas, Nev. and Mrs. B.F. Barnica of Big Springs, Neb., and one brother, Joe Batty of Baker, Ore. Mr. and Mrs. Barnica, daughters, Miss Florence and Miss Minnie Barnica, all of Big Springs, drove here last evening. Other relatives arriving today to remain until after the funeral are Mrs. Samuel Batty, Mr and Mrs. Walter Batty, Mr. and Mrs. Seth Batty, and Mrs. Walter Green, all of Cedar Rapids, Neb.; Mrs. Lloyd Rundall and Samuel Batty, of Omaha.
