• Notes

  Information from letter from Mrs. Lynn Turner of Bloomington, IL, to Amanda Arbogast Forbes. Lynn is descended through William's son, John Lewis and grandson, Rev. Wm. H. Arbogast, her father. Mrs. Lynn Turner is Vera Arbogast. Newspaper story of her 95th birthday celebration in file. Pantagraph, Bloomington - Normal, IL, Sun Dec 8, 1974, page C-16. The Church, Evangelical United Methodist, 400 W. Union, where her husband began his work in 1911, will celebrate the 62nd anniversary of the dedication of its sanctuary along with her birthday at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Lynn Turner, 211 W. Seminary. Rev. Arbogast retired in 1937, and they moved back to Bloomington. Rev. Arbogast had served many Churches in Illinois, including Conference Superintendent for southern Illinois beginning in 1920, which required almost constant travel.
