Read More	Mrs. David Wilkey, whose maiden name was Charlotte Lemley, was born in Ohio June 5, 1840 and at about one year old she went with her parents to Waynesburg, Pennsylvania, where she grew to womanhood. She is a daughter of George and Sarah Lemley and was one of a family of sixteen children. She was the last surviving member of her family. In 1864, she moved with her parents to Cambridge, Illinois where in 1866 she became the wife of David Wilkey. After her marriage she lived on a farm in Illinois for two years, after which she and her husband came as pioneers to Iowa, making the trip in a wagon. For one year they lived on a farm two miles south of Villisca and then bought the home place four miles southeast of this city where they lived together until Mr. Wilkey's death on November 28, 1909 and where Mrs. Wilkey continued to reside until her death. Although she passed through many of the hardships incident to pioneer life, Mrs. Wilkey remained strong and healthy throughout her 84 years of life and was able to do her own work and take care of herself until she was stricken with paralysis on May 9, This proved too great for her strength to bear and she died one week later. She is survived by two sons, Jas, with whom she made her home and Sam who lives on a farm near the Wilkey homestead. She leaves also three grandchildren and eight great grandchildren. She was a member of the M. E. Church for more than forty years and was a member also of John A. Logan circle. Her funeral was preached by Rev. J, L, Boyd with interment in the Villisca Cemetery. Villisca Review, Friday, May 22, 1925, page 8
