Swisher of the Congregational church officiating. Mrs. Fink was one of the earliest pioneers of this vicinity, coming here from Indiana in 1858 with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. John A. Unthank. She was among the first students who attended Doane College which was then located at Fontanelle, and taught school later in this vicinity. She was also one of the charter members of the local Eastern Star lodge. The pallbearers were all relatives: J. C. Cook of Fremont; G. R. Unthank of Lincoln; A. N. Unthank of Fremont; Will Unthank of Omaha; C. U. Cook and Wm. Cook of this place. Interment was made in the Arlington cemetery. Three children, Mrs. Major Ormsby of Casper, Wyo., Mrs. J. C. Badger of Arlington and Delbert Fink of Midwest, Wyo. survive her, also one sister, Mrs. Jennie Cook of Los Angeles. #2-January 15, 1931- Arlington Review Herald Hannah Eva (Unthank) Fink Hannah Eva Unthank was born in Newport (now Fountain City) Indiana, December 13, 1852. Departed this life at Arlington, Nebraska, January 5, 1931, aged 78 years and 23 days. She came to Nebraska with her parents in 1858 making the trip overland with a team of horses and a yoke of oxen. With the exception of brief sojourns away, her life has been lived in this vicinity. The family settled on a homestead southeast of Arlington on what is now the Ormsby orchard farm, where her father the Hon. John A. Unthank engaged in farming. They were among the earlier settlers and pioneers of the community. In 1873 the family moved into Arlington, then known as Bell Creek. The deceased took advantage of the privileges then offered, and was among the earlier students who attended the college at Fontanelle. There she prepared for teaching and successfully followed that profession for several years, having charge of school in this vicinity. There are some of the older folk still living in this community who were her pupils. In 1873 she was married to John H. Fink, and to this union two daughters and one son were born. They are Mrs. Jessie A. Ormsby, Casper, Wy.; Mrs. Honora B. Badger, Arlington, Nebr.; and Mr. Delbert L. Fink, Midwest, Wyoming. Mrs. Fink belonged to a family of six children, one of who survives, a sister Mrs. Jennie A. Cook, Los Angeles, California. Mrs. Fink was a fine woman, always interested in the best things, a valued citizen in every way. Always thoughtful of her family and others, a good mother and friend. Her long life in the community made her many friends many of the earlier and older ones having dropped out as the years have passed, she being among the few pioneers left in Arlington. Mrs. Fink was interested in those of the younger generations and enjoyed a wide circle of friendship. Arlington loses one of its fine old ladies with her passing. Her valuable contribution in friendly relationship will be treasured by all of those who knew her. We so often look at what the world calls great things, that we are forgetful of the many ministries of love, the everyday things which make life worth the living. Mrs. Fink was a chapter member of the local Eastern Star Order. In this she had the distinction again of being among the few. Hers was a long life of usefulness. It was with no struggle or pain that she departed, but as one who had come a long way, she laid down to rest and woke in the spirit life. The funeral was held from the J.C. Badger home Thursday afternoon at two o'clock in charge of Rev. R.C. Swisher, D.D. of the Congregational church. A large company of neighbors and friends were in attendance. Interment in Arlington cemetery. ~~~Obituaries courtesy of the Nebraska Washington County Genealogical Society.
