Polly Ann Grindley
1806 - 1852 (46 years)-
Name Polly Ann Grindley Birth 1806 Gender Female Death 8 Dec 1852 Virgil, Cortland Co., New York, USA Burial Snyder Hill Cemetery, Virgil, Cortland Co., New York, USA Notes - Polly Ann Benton departed this life in East Virgil, Dec. 8, 1852, aged 46 years. Her disease was consumption.
She experienced religion about thirty years ago, at a camp meeting, and soon after joined the M.E. Church, in which she lived and died.
The subject of this memoir was married to Isaac Benton in May 1826, by whom she had ten children, three of them died before her, two daughters and one son, all within two years previous to her own departure. As she had long since given her heart to God and was endeavoring to lead a Christian life, she met these trials as a Christian, and seemed to be perfectly resigned to the will of God. Sister Benton's life, as a Christian, was consistent. In her sickness, which was long and painful, she was resigned, happy, and sometimes triumphant, and her death was peaceful. She now rests from her labors. In the death of this sister, the Church has lost a worthy member, her family a kind and worthy companion, and a tender and affectionate mother. May her companion and seven remaining children so live that they may meet her in Heaven.
