- The obituary of Mrs. John Hartman is written as follows; Death of Mrs.
John Hartman of Groveland. Died at her home in Groveland, Thrusday,
Oct. 11th, 1888, Mrs. John Hartman. Her maiden name was Mary Wallis
Hayes. She was born in Genesee county, this state, resided most of her
unmarried life in Dansville, until 1859, when she married John Hartman
and removed to Groveland wher she has since lived. Her intense love
for the Episcopal church of which she was a devoted member for many
years was shown by the great pleasure she always manifested in its
work. Her sweetness of character which had won for her so many
friends while in health and prosperity a shown out even more brightly
by the great patience and superhuman unselfishness she maintained
during her long and painful illness. She will be missed by her
husband and children as "loss of a mother is always keenly felt, even
if her health be such as to incapacitate her from taking an active
part in the care of the family. She is sweet rallying point for
affection obedience and thousand tenderness. Dreary the blank when she
is withdrawn." Her funeral which was held Saturday was largely
attended by her immediate neighbors and many friends from Dansville.
The beautiful and impressive Episcopal service was obeserved, Rev.
Charles Ricksecker of Mt.Morris officiating.[CI:224:?4:CI]
