A.Biltoft were held Tuesday afternoon at the Jessen Funeral Home. The Rev. Harold S. Baker, Methodist minister at Bassett, conducted the services. Burial was in Ainsworth cemetery. Pallbearers were Ralph Leonard, Tom Miles, Herb Schrieber, Darwin Bowers, Lyle Brooks, and Jim Ford. Margaret B. Heron was born near Dansburry, Iowa, on June 28, 1882, and departed this life January 29, at the age of 67 years, 6 months and 23 days. When she was five years of age her parents moved to Keya Paha county, where her father took a homestead. There she grew to womanhood. She was united in marriage with William White and settled on a homestead near her father's place, across the river in Brown county. To this union two sons were born. Mr. White passed away while a young man and she was later married to Lou F. Wheeler and they made their home on Buffalo Flats for a number of years. Margaret helped him raise his family. Later they moved to Ainsworth where she lived for seven years, after Mr. Wheeler's death. She also assisted in raising and schooling three orphaned children. On June 18, 1946 she was united in marriage with Rev. F. A. Biltoft of Bassett. They resided on what is known as the Biltoft ranch, until her illness took her to the Jennie Edmunson hospital at Council Bluffs, Iowa, where she spent the last four weeks of her life. During her last illness, although she was suffering a great deal, she never lost her sense of humor. Some years ago Mrs. Biltoft united with the General Baptist church, and has been a true follower of this faith since that time. She leaves to mourn her passing her husband, F. A. Biltoft of Bassett, two sons, Ivan White of Ainsworth, and George White of Bend, Oregon. Two sisters, Mrs. Anna Taff, Minneapolis, Minn., Mrs. Blanche Wheeler, Long Pine, three grandchildren, many step children and their families, who have come to know and love her as a mother. She also leaves a host of friends who will remember her. She was a good helpmate in the ministry and in the home. So closes the life of one, a homemaker, a loving wife, a lover of all children. One who knew the visitations and hardships of the pioneer life. Source: Ainsworth Star-Journal, 26 Jan 1950, Pg. 1, Col. 3.
