Vadeflnute[sic], was born in Holland, April 6, 1869. She passed away Dec. 27, 1919, at her home, 5 miles north of Lamoni. Her death was caused from heart failure. She had been failing in health for several weeks but her condition did not seem serious, so her death came as a shock, not only to the family but to the entire community. At the time of her death she was 50 years, 8 mo., and 21 days of age. At the age of four years, she with one sister and two brothers came with her parents to this country and went to Ogden, Utah, where they remained for only a short time before the family moved to Iowa, where she spent the rest of her life with the exception of three years. April 2, 1886, she was married to Mr. John B. DeVrieses[sic], and to this union were born eleven children, three of whom have passed on to the Paradise of God. Two, Bennie and Jessie when they were very young and an elder brother, John, less than a year ago. Her husband preceded her three years, and those who are left to mourn are Mrs. Sadie Oiler, Mrs. Bertha Toney, Arthur, Rhea, Carl, Ada, Vera, Leona, and four grandchildren besides many other relatives in this locality and elsewhere. Mrs. DeVries was one of a family of nine children, only one of this number had preceded her, and she died in the old country when but a very small child, three sisters, Mrs. Hattie Davenport, Mrs. Maggie Goodwin, and Mrs. Florence Wood, and four brothers John, Webbie, Isaac, and Will are left to mourn a sister. All were present at the funeral excepting Mrs. Woods who lives in Utah and Mrs. Goodwin in Missouri. She accepted the hope of salvation as taught by the Latter Day Saints and with her husband was baptized August 28, 1894, by Elder Robert M. Elvin. The funeral services were conducted at the late residence, Dec. 30, 1919, by F.A. Smith. Bro. Shakespeare had charge of the music.* Name Variation: Eelkja Woebes MOTHER: Sada Sejtske Van der Meulen FATHER: Webie W. Vanderflute (Family named spelled per parents' memorials.)
