Groesbeck Passed to Her Reward Feb. 26, at Home of Her Daughter in Floyd. Martha Ann Dierdorff was born in Westfield, Medina county, Ohio July 18, 1839. She was the youngest of 12 children of Mr. and Mrs. Jonas Dierdorff. She was united in marriage to Jacob Carpenter Saddler, of Sullivan, Ohio, July 2, 1860. They came west about 60 years ago, making the trip overland by team, and settled on a farm near Waverly, Iowa. Later they moved to Richland township, Chickasaw county, where they resided for 25 years, and where Mr. Saddler died on Dec. 5th, 1904. To this union six children were born, of which five survive the mother: Arthur Fremont Saddler, Pillsbury, N.D.; Mrs. Florence Bushnell, Oneida, Iowa; Jason Saddler, Dubuque, Iowa; Royal Monroe Saddler, Floyd, Iowa; Peter A. Saddler, Colwell, Iowa. George Wilbur preceded the mother in death on October 18, 1903, at the age of 30 years. She had 14 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren. On January 17, 1909, she contracted a second marriage, with John W. Groesbeck, and moved to Floyd, Iowa, where they made their home until the time of his death, Nov. 14, 1917. Her entire residence at Floyd was 14 years. She was converted in childhood and united with the United Brethren church. Some fifty years ago, however, under the preaching of Rev. A. A. Wilbur, of Charles City, she embraced the bible doctrines which distinguished the Advent Christian church, continuing a faithful member of that denomination up till the time of her death. She was a woman with a keen, practical mind, and of unusual force of character, courageous and resourceful in times of emergency, whether outwitting outlaws, rebuilding from the ruins of a cyclone, or meeting the hardships and privations of pioneer life. She was much sought after in cases of sickness, far and near, and never failed to prove herself a friend indeed in these times of need. She was intensely interested in religious work and prominent in various activities of the denomination. She aspired to fight the food fight of faith, faithful unto death in hopes of the promised crown of righteousness. She fell asleep in death in February 26, 1925, at the age of 85 years, 7 months and 8 days. Funeral services were conducted at the A.C. Church Sunday afternoon, conducted by Rev. J. F. Whitman of Minneapolis, a personal friend of the deceased. Interment was in the cemetery at Republic.
