The ancestry of Lucius Fay has been discussed in detail elsewhere on this site. While that page contains an outline descendant list for Lucius, including the line of his son George Warren, there is little further detail there beyond the names of his four children. This page is to supply more information about George's line. The earlier page ended with an obituary for Lucius which is repeated here.
   
Obituary of Lucius Fay
Lucius Fay was born near Saxton's River Village in the town of Rockingham, county of Windham, state of Vermont, Oct 5th, 1823, and was married in early life to Sarah A. Thompson who, with an infant daughter, died in 1852. He came to Knox County, Ill., in Dec 1853 and was married to Emeline Cone on Feb. 28 1855, in Cambridge, Ill., and on April 16, 1957 settled on the place where he died Jan. 5, 1900. He was the son of John and Phebe (Locke) Fay, 5 sisters and 2 brothers having preceded him to the world beyond. His wife and one brother, Norman Fay of Oneida, survive him. One daughter of the last marriage died in 1835 and one daughter and three sons with eight grandchildren are left to mourn his loss. One little grandson has also preceded him to the great beyond.
Funeral services were conducted at the late residence three miles east of Woodhull on Sunday, Jan. 7, 1900, at 2 o'clock p.m. in the presence of a large concourse of friends and relatives. Interment took place at the Woodhull cemetery, Rev. Grant Stroh, pastor of the Presbyterian church officiating.
[The little grandson who preceded Lucius to the great beyond was Seth, son of Charles and Lillian Fay. He died at the age of 2 after falling from his high chair. His mother, Lillian, died shortly afterward.]
