Mrs. Whiting had been in very good health, except that she was confined to the house, up to a couple of days before her death, when she contracted pneumonia. Alzina Atwood was born in Vermont in 1829. At the age of 18 she moved with her parents to Wisconsin. In 1850 [1851] she was married to Amos Whiting, and a few years later they traveled across the state by ox team and began pioneer life in Trempealeau county. In 1879 the family moved to Dakota Territory, locating nine miles east of De Smet before the railroad reached this county. The husband died in 1895. Mrs. Whiting was the mother of four sons - Louis E. of De Smet, Wilton E. of Aberdeen, Herbert A. of Minneapolis, and Rollin S. of Indiana, and one daughter, who died in 1862. Mrs. Whiting was the last of a family of ten. She was held in high esteem as a mother and friend. She was a Unitarian in faith. Funeral services were held from the farm home Tuesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. Percy Kederdine, pastor of the M. E. church, and interment was in the De Smet cemetery. De Smet News, De Smet, SD, Mar. 25, 1915 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The photo of the family plot was taken in 1984. Amos and Alzina have no markers, unless one was added in recent years. The grave at left is that of their son, Wilton E. Whiting; the one on the right is Robert, infant son of Clifford Whiting (son of Louis). These are the only stones in the Whiting plot at the cemetery. The monument spells the surname incorrectly as WHITTING.
