Emma A Wilson, daughter of Josiah and Eliza Wilson, was born at the present home of her father, 2 miles south of Lebanon, Van Buren county, Iowa, on the 6th day of April, 1856, being the 4th child of her family, and died at her home in Cantril, Iowa, February 22, 1905, age, 48 years, 9 months, and 16 days. She leaves to mourn her loss, besides her husband, a daughter and son, two sisters, Mrs. Kate Warner, of Utica, Iowa, and Mrs. Mandy J. Brown, of Milton, Iowa, and one half sister, Mrs. Grace Morris of Bloomfield, Iowa, and two brothers, Rufus and Lincoln Wilson, both living in this vicinity, and four half brothers, William, Henry, Nathan and Harley Wilson. All of whom were present with the father Josiah Wilson, except William, Henry, Harley and Mrs. Morris. Her mother died when she was about 7 years old. May 3, 1874, S.A. Casady and Emma A. Wilson were married at the home of her father. Since then they lived in or near Cantril, except a few years spent at Azen, Mo. They were the parents of three children, Paul, who died at the age of three years, Josie M. Daugherty and Harry, both of whom were present. About 1886 she united with the Christian church at Azen, Mo., under the ministry of T.A. Renfro, by whom she was baptized. She was also a member of the order of Eastern Star at Milton, and of the Rebecca and Rathbone Sisters at Cantril. Her sickness began about 1901, and in April, 1902, she went to Keokuk, Iowa, and underwent a very severe surgical operation. For a time this seemed to give some relief, but again growing worse in about a year afterward she returned to Keokuk and had the second operation. The relief was only temporary and since that time everything that science and attention of devoted friends could do for her has been done. During the entire period of her sickness she was a constant sufferer and most of the time the pain was acute, intense and excruciating. During the time of her suffering she was resigned and patient and never lost interest in the welfare of her family and friends. So great was her concern for them that she seemed to forget her own suffering. She was a consistent every day christian. In all her church work her presence and kind counsel was always felt. Ever Willing and anxious to do what her hands could find to do. As a teacher in the Sunday School she was prompt and punctual, as many who were her pupils from time to time will testify. In the other societies to which she belonged and as a member of society in general she was held in the highest esteem. But it was in her home where she was best known that her love and all the graces which adorned her were concentrated and exerted with the greatest force. The interest she took in her husband and children was unbounded. Fro a long time being fully aware that her days were numbered, yet she spent her time in planning for their future success and happiness. In the contemplation of a character like Mr. Casady's language fails. While greatness and kindness were her leading traits, yet when necessary decision and firmness were asserted. Her true worth as a wife, mother, sister and neighbor was most appreciated by those who knew her best. And this appreciation, words can but feebly express. Source: Van Buren Co.
