Ann Marpole

Notes:

The funeral of Mrs. Ann Stewart, who passed away at her home two miles east of this village, December 19th, 1901, was largely attended from Christ church at Richland, the 22d. Mrs. Stewart had been in poor health since last May, although able to be about the house most of the time until within a few days of her death, She was a great sufferer, her disease being hardening of the liver. Her children tenderly care for her, and all that loving hands could do to relieve her suffering, was done. Last May she went to Chicago to visit her sister, but her health being so poor she soon returned home and gradually failed until the end came. She never made a public profession of religion, but believed, on the Lord Jesus and was ready and willing to go to that land where sickness and death cannot come, Mrs. Stewart's maiden name was Ann Marpole born in Machynlleth Wales, in 1832. When about sixteen years of age she came to America with her oldest brother, Edward Marpole, and lived
with an uncle in Rome for a time, then came to Richland where she married Draper Stewart, in 1850, and there resided
until her death. Nine children are left to mourn her loss; namely, Mrs. Mary B. Wood, Draper H. Stewart, Ethel Stewart, Mrs. Nellie Price, Mrs. Anne Stinson, RiChland; Mrs. Sophia
Yoodre, Dexter; Mrs. F. S, Richards, North Bay; Edward Stewart, New Haven; Lemuel Stewart, Syracuse; and one sister in Chicago and one in Wales. Many beautiful flowers were sent by friends as a last token of love.
