Obituary of Dr. Franklin Jackson Yager of Campbellsburg, KY

The following obituary originally appeared in the Henry County Local newspaper, New Castle, Kentucky, dated Friday, January 12, 1912:

Dr. Frank J. Yager died at his home at Campbellsburg Wednesday morning at 7:25 o'clock, from the infirmities of age, being 93 years, 8 months and 13 days old, having been born in Oldham County on April 27, 1818.  Most of his life was spent in Henry County, and he was a regular practitioner of medicine for over 70 years - for he did practice up to within 18 months of his death.

Dr. Yager taught the first classes in Latin and Greek that were ever taught in Henry County, and some of his pupils became prominent.  This instruction was given in 1840, at what was known as the Pollard school house between New Castle and Pleasureville.  He opened the first Sunday school that was ever taught in La Grange; also the first one ever taught in Campbellsburg.  He delivered the first temperance address that was ever delivered in that town and organized there the first society of the Sons of Temperance in Henry County.

During a great many years he was active in temperance and benevolent work, and was a conspicuous member of the Baptist church from his young manhood.  He had for a great many years been a member of the Masonic fraternity and was devoted to the order.

Dr. Yager was a man of unusual intelligence and had a large fund of self-acquired knowledge.  He was exceedingly kindly in disposition and the embodiment of courtesy.

In the successful practice of medicine, Dr. Yager built up a nice estate, but rather still, gained a wealth of public esteem.

Four children survive Dr. Yager: viz; Dr. Arthur Yager, President of Georgetown College; Mr. Fountain Yager, of California; Ernest Yager, of 648 First Street, Louisville; and Mrs. Lulu Milan, of Florida.  Dr. Yager and Ernest reached his bedside the evening before he died.

The funeral occurred at Campbellsburg Thursday.  The sermon was by Rev. G. J. Davis, Rev. Levi Chilton also making a short address.  The honors of Masonry were also extended, Sup't Adams of the Orphan's Home, Louisville, officiating.  There was a liberal turn-out of the fraternity.

The three sons were present, but the daughter us unable to come.
