CHARLES E. EADES:  The subject of this sketch was of English-Irish 
origin and was born in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky, on August 28, 
1853.  He was the seventh of eight children born to Robert and Mary 
Coleman Eades.  In the years of his youth he received his education 
in the county schools at hand as he grew up on a farm.  At the age of 
seventeen he entered a general store at Greenville, Kentucky, as a 
clerk.  In 1877 he engaged in the grocery business which he followed 
for about two and one-half years.  In the year 1881 he sold out his 
store, after having engaged in the clothing business for about one 
year, and moved to Owensboro, Kentucky, where he remained about a year 
in the men's clothing business.  He returned to Greenville, Kentucky 
and engaged in the same business the remainder of his earthly life.
	In the fall of 1869, Brother Eades was converted and baptized 
into the fellowship of the Oak Grove Church, Muhlenberg County, 
Kentucky.  He became a member of the Greenville Church in 1871 and 
continued as a faithful and efficient member until his death.  He was 
very active in Associational work, serving as clerk and assistant 
clerk of the Daviess County Association from 1896 to 1907.  When the 
Muhlenberg County Association was organized in 1907, he was elected 
as the first Moderator and was faithfully filling that office at the 
time of his death which occurred on February 25, 1910.
	Brother Eades was united in marriage to Miss Annie Howard of 
Greenville, Kentucky, on October 6, 1880.  They had one son and one 
daughter.  Our brother proved himself to be a model citizen and 
Christian leader by being a loyal servant of the Lord.  He proved 
again that a man can engage in business and also be a Christian at 
the same time.
