She was the fourth daughter of Thomas and Jane Clark, pioneers of Mitchell County who settled on the Clark homestead, southwest of Osage in an early day, and where, “Ellie” grew to womanhood. In her immediate family were six sisters and three brothers, all of whom have passed on except one sister, Mrs. Lizzie Ball of Osage, and a brother, W. Clark, of Boothwyn, Penn. On Oct. 7, 1889, she was married to John E. Tibbetts and to this union eight children were born, the eldest, Jesse Ernest, died in infancy, and Lulu Velna, at the age of 3 years. Except for five years spent in Kansas, her entire life was spent in Iowa, and all but a few in Mitchell County. She lived a quiet life, but all who knew her could not help but be helped by her cheerfulness. She was a faithful wife, a kind mother, a very helpful neighbor, and a true friend. Her cheerfulness and devotion to Christ, the keen interest in her family, are outstanding traits of her character. She will be missed by friends and family. Her long and useful life challenges us all to the simple, clear faith, which was the foundation of her wonderful life. For a number of years she has been a patient sufferer of heart trouble, and for the past six months her health has gradually failed.

Tibbits; three daughters, Mrs. Ella Angell, LeRoy, Minn.; Mrs. Bessie Sheldon, Orchard, Myrtie Tibbits, McIntire; three sons, Harvey E., LeRoy, Minn., Harold J., and Leslie V., McIntire; a sister and brother, named above.
