From the Burt County, NE., Newspaper, 6 Oct 1899
Died at Presbyterian hospital in Omaha, Thursday, Sept. 28, Mr. Geo. Blue, aged 66 years.
The funeral services were held in the Advent church, Saturday, and the remains laid to rest in the Advent cemetery beside those of his wife who had preceded him to the great unknown three years ago.
Mr. Blue was born in LaPorte county, IN., 1833. While still residing there he was joined in wedlock to Miss Mary Johnson. To this union five children were born, of which two sons, M. W. and Wes Blue of this place and one daughter, Mrs. Canfield of Decatur, survive them.
They moved to this county in 1878 and were therefore among the old settlers who are fast dropping away.
Mr. Blue was a loving father and good neighbor and was liked and respected by all who knew him.
