Deceased was a native of England, coming to America when very young. No woman in our community was held in higher esteem. She was an ideal lady at all times. Though for years enfeebled by poor health she struggled earnestly and desiringly in the rearing of her children and for their welfare to a degree that was almost superhuman. Four daughters are left to mourn the loss of one of the grandest of mothers, besides other relatives. Mineral Point Tribune, May 9, 1891
