She was married October 11, 1866, and became the mother of six children, all of whom survive and are in the city this week for the funeral. Mrs. Meyerhoff moved to Villisca about fourteen years ago, her husband, John, having died in 1890. The funeral services were held at the home yesterday afternoon at one o'clock, conducted by Rev. J.K. Driver and interment was made in the old home cemetery at Nodaway. Before marriage Mrs. Meyerhoff's name was White- Mary Jane White. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church and had been for many years. She also belonged to the Order of Eastern Star.
