Igance Prevost, 79, of Burgettstown, RD 2, Cross Creek Township, died Thursday, Sept. 1, 1955, at 6am in his home, after a lingering illness.
He was born in Belgium Feb. 13, 1876, and had been a resident of the Burgettstown district for over 40 years.
Mr. Prevost was a retired coal miner.
He is survived by his wife, Maria Pawels Prevost; the following sons and a daughter: Emile, of Bowerstown, O.; Albert, of Burgettstown, RD 2; George of Rea, RD; Mrs. Juliette Largent of Linesville; 22 grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
PREVOST: Friends of Ignace Prevost, of Burgettstown, RD 2, who died Sept. 1, 1955, will be received at the Lee and Wilson Funeral Home, 73 Highland Avenue, Burgettstown, where funeral services will be held Saturday at 2pm in charge of Rev. Convoy, pastor of Cross Creek Presbyterian Church. Burial in Fairview Cemetery, Burgettstown.
The spelling on the stone of his first name is: Ignace as it is also in his obituary. The name in the first sentence is the way it was spelled in the obit also. In the census it is also spelled the same. I'm going to leave it spelled as it is in the obit, the tombstone and all other sources for now. The next time I'm through Burgettstown, I will stop and take a better picture of the stone and post it. Ignace Prevost is a direct ancestor of my 2 daughters.
