MAXSON, by whom she had three children, namely: Lafayette, Floyd and Chesley. ********* 3 April 1924 - West Branch Times - page 3 Funeral services were held Tuesday morning, at 10 o'clock from the Snider Chapel, for Mrs. Anna Maxson.

She was the eldest of a family of eleven children. Most of her life was spent near Springdale. She lived in Linn county for two years, and during late years had made her home in or near West Liberty. On December 1, 1878, she was united in marriage with George F. Bates and to them was born one child, now Mrs. Nellie B. Sanger. Mr. Bates died in July of 1882. On January 4, 1888, she married H. K.

Mr. Maxson preceded her in death seven years and two days; and since his death she had made her home with her youngest son, Chesley. Her health had been failing for about a year and on December 29 of last year she submitted to an operation, but after all that loving hands could do she continued to fail. She was a kind and loving mother, unusually ambitious to be doing something for others and always made friends wherever she lived. She was a birthright member of the Friends church and a firm believer in its teachings. Besides her own children and 12 grandchildren, she leaves to mourn, nine brothers and sisters: Mrs. Susan Montgomery, Mrs. Harry Rockefellow, Mrs. Howard Rockefellow, and Mrs. John Connor of West Liberty; W.
