Gregg was born at the farm home of her parents in Elk County, Kansas, about twelve miles northwest of Howard, May 17,1879, and passed from life April 26, 1936, at Bell Memorial Hospital in Kansas City, Kansas. Eureka has been her home through life except for about a year and a half in early childhood which she spent with her parents and family in Washington state and later a short time in Colorado visiting her grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Barney Hayden and a sister Mrs. Clara Esther McKenzie, who passed away January 20, 1931. On September 14, 1894, she was united in marriage to Thomas Bilson at the at the family home west of Eureka, C.L. Worley officiating. To this union Nine children were born, four of whom proceeded the mother in death. The husband and three sons, Donald, Paul, and Harold and one daughter, Mrs. Irene Garvin of Eureda and one daughter Mrs Evelyn Hoffstetter of Eldorado, and seven grandchildren all of Eureda survive her. She also leaves one sister, Mrs. C.M. Martin of Lansing, Kansas, one brother Alfred Gregg, of near Piedmont and many other relatives and friends. True motherhood is the brightest star among this mother's many shining virtues, for she was an understanding friend as well as a loving mother to her children who adored her. A loyal and helpful wife and companion to her husband; a friend and neighbor who was willing to help in any need; uncomplaining patience through many years of poor health and other cares which she bore with fortitude and a smile for those around her are other stars to crown her life. Her memory will linger to bless her family and friends.
