Maurice W. Kephart died on 2 October 1902 in Washington Twp., Warren Co., OH,

Obituary -- (Findagrave.com):

He was born K. Maurice W. Kephart, the 9th of 10 children born to Richard Lewis (Lewis) & Sarah Gillmore Kephart. For most of his life, he went by his nickname, Morris. There are no family stories as to what the "K" & "W" stand for in Morris's name.

All of Lewis & Sarah's children were born as Kephart. They were: Eliza, Mary, Lavinia (Linnie), William, Louisa, Charles, Laura, Albert, Maurice (Morris), and Maud.

On 10 September 1884, Morris married the love of his life, Eva D Hutchinson (Ella). They were married in Warren County, Ohio. They went on to have 5 wonderful children: Alfred, John, Ethel, Lucille (Lucy), and Charles (Charlie).

Morris & Ella's first 2 children were born & baptized as Kephart, but somewhere in the late 1880's Morris started using Kiphart. His last 3 children were born & baptized as Kiphart.

It is not know why the name change occured, but many of Morris's siblings began using Kiphart as well in this same timeframe.

With the exception of a 2 year gap that found Morris & Ella living in Clinton County, Morris spent almost his entire life in Warren County, Ohio. Most of his children & grandchildren lived nearby.

Maurice W. Kephart was also known as "Morris" Kiphart. He lived on 5 June 1880 in Washington Twp., Warren Co., OH.2 He lived on 18 June 1900 in Washington Twp., Warren Co., OH.1
