The Rev. J.O. Click will officiate and interment will be in Evergreen. __________________________________________ Rock Springs Rocket, Feb 14, 1930 Early Resident Of Eden Valley Is Dead at 84 Word was received Wednesday in Rock Springs of the death Tuesday night of Mrs. Elizabeth Apperson, which occurred in Colorado Springs. Mrs. Apperson was the mother of Mrs. Myrle Crofts and Undrel Apperson of this city. She and her husband were early settlers of the Eden valley, being one of the first six families to locate in that section. Undrel APperso was at his mother’s bedside when she passed away and Mrs. Crofts, who recently had been in Colorado Springs, left for that city Wednesday upon being advised of her mother’s death. After residing in the Eden valley for several years where they raised the first vegetables to be imported into Rock Springs in the early days Mr. and Mrs. Apperson homesteaded on Horse Creek, in the Daniel section, where they were engaged in the ranching business for several years and where Mr. Apperson passed away ten years ago. The family was among the early pioneers who crossed the plains with teams on the old Oregon trail in the early days. They crossed the plains in prairie schooners five times from Missouri, their native state. They were on their sixth trip, from Washington, when they wintered at Lander the winter of ’90 they came with Jack Piper, a settler of the Eden country at that time, to Eden where they lived on the Little Sandy. In 1894 they emigrated into the Green River valley, locating on Horse Creek. Old timers of this section may recall that while they lived in the Eden valley they also supplied many residents of Rock Springs with elk meat, elk being plentiful on the plains north of the city in those days. Mrs. Apperson, who was in her 84th year, fell at the home of a daughter in Colorado Springs in December, sustaining a broken hip from which she never recovered and which precipitated the illness that caused her death. She is survived by three sons and six daughters, 21 grandchildren and 26 great-grandchidlren. The sons are Undrel of this city, Bud of Big Piney, and Guy of Pinedale. The daughters are Mrs. Nora Andaus, who resides in Washington; Mrs. Lou Odle, Colorado Springs; Mrs. Bertha O’Brien, Montana; Mrs. Flora Yager, Lava Hot Springs, Ida.; Mrs. Florence Zinghime of Yakima, Wash.; and Mrs. Crofts of this city. Interment was in Colorado Springs. ∼She was the second wife of William Newton Apperson. They were married April 17, 1873 at Eureka, Greenwood Co., Kansas.
