OBITUARY NOTICE:
ALEX FLEMING LAID TO REST
Early-Timer of Amador Sleeps on Hillside of His Ranch Near Jackson
JACKSON OFFICE STOCKTON RECORD, Jan 13.---Alexander Fleming, one of the old timers of Amador county, passed away at his ranch home, situated about two and a half miles from Jackson, Thursday evening, January 9th. Fleming was born in Kilmarnock, Scotland in 1833. He received his early education in Scotland and was by trade, a weaver. When quite young he left Scotland and sailed for America and settled in the state of Missouir and followed his trade. Later he moved to Utah and engaged in farming in that state and embraced the Mormon faith and while there he was married to his present wife, Mrs. Margaret Fleming on April 25, 1867 at the town of Providence, Utah. He remained in the state of Utah for three years, and hearing so much about California he decided to go to the Golden West.
Mr. Fleming and his family came to California in 1869 and settled in Amador county on the ranch where he lived until the time of his death.
In the early days there was a sawmill where his home now stands, and everything was in a very primitive condition but by steady industry, thrift and integrity, Fleming won out and a beautiful home is the result of his untiring efforts. Since coming to California, he had always followed the occupation of a farmer and was noted for his honest dealing with all men. Fleming lived a very quiet life, seldom coming to Jackson except on the Fourth of July and Admission Day. He was a man who strictly attended to his own business and was very reticent about his own affairs. He passed out of this life as quietly as he lived; he simply went to sleep.
Besides his widow, Mrs. Margaret Fleming, he leaves six daughters and four sons - Mrs. A.E. Campbell, Mrs. A.C. Inks and Victoria FLeming, all of Jackson; Mrs. J. W.Knowles of Reno; Mrs. E. T. Bamert of Clements and Mrs. Joseph Grebe of Portland, Ore., The sons are G. A. Fleming of Berekley, W. S. Fleming of Sacramento, R. B. Fleming of Volcano and Harry Fleimng overseas.
The old pioneer was laid to rest on his own ranch on a sunny hillside that he often spoke of before his death as being the place where he desired to sleep his long sleep. The funeral took place Saturday afternoon, January 11th, at 2 o'clock.
