When nine years of age she came with her parents to Taylor county, Iowa, and on September 11, 1878, was united in marriage to Samuel J. Crawford. to this union twelve children were born, six boys and six girls. Her husband passed away August 2, 1921. Also three daughters have passed away: Myrtle, January 5, 1895; Mae, February 19th, 1899; and Mrs Ruby Ingram, May 18, 1925. The living children are Mrs Iowa Weaver, Palmyra, Nebr; Mrs Ella Hills, Linneus, Mo; Mrs Anna Ginther, Meadville, Mo; Oren, Dennis, George and Howard, reside near New Market; Cecil and Ledger, near Clarinda, besides her children she leaves three sisters, Mrs Maggie Crawford, Caldwell, Idaho; Mrs Pearlie Wagoner, Holly, Colo; and Mrs Ollie Jamison, Knowles, Okla; also eighteen grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. When young, she accepted Christ as her Savior and united with the Baptist church, which she loved so well. Most of her life has been spent in this neighborhood, having lived at the old home for almost 55 years. She was greatly devoted to her husband and the care of the large family given her, but with the many problems that necessarily belong with raising such a large family, she was always ready to do her full share for the welfare of the community in which she lived. She was a member of the Valley Sunshine Club, which she greatly enjoyed. Although her passing came suddenly and peacefully, she has been in failing health for several months and has often said to those around her she was ready to go when her Savior called her. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon, November7, from the New Market Baptist church in charge of Rev Dice and burial was made in Memory cemetery. The sincere sympathy of the community is extended to the sorrowing ones in their bereavement. BEDFORD TIMES REPUBLICAN, Bedford, Iowa, Nov 22, 1928
