Peter Bock, in Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin, Wednesday morning at seven o'clock, May 15, was a great shock to the people of Cascade. Few of her old friends were aware of the seriousness of her physical condition, and very naturally the announcement of her critical illness followed by the news of her death was surprising. In the company of her husband she left Cascade for Waukesha where her son Rev. W. A. Ganfield resides, for the purpose of receiving medical treatment, but when she reached Prairie du Sac was unable to continue the journey, and there, after a brief spell, departed this life at the hour and date mentioned. Mary Jane Patterson Ganfield was born in Phoenixville, Pennsylvania, September 3, 1849. She was a daughter of Richard Patterson and her mother's name was Esther Daly. Her parents came to Iowa in the early days of the state and were pioneer settlers of this section of Dubuque County and hear the girlhood of deceased was passed. She was married to Samuel Ganfield April 20, 1868, who survives her, and to this marriage there were born six children, Minnie, Henry, William, George, Mabel and Ella, all of whom survived the mother except many, the firstborn, who died in childhood. Henry and George reside in Whitewater Township; Rev. William Ganfield at Waukesha, Wisconsin; Mabel is the wife of Edgar Wall, and Ella, the wife of Rev. Peter Bock, resides at Prairie du Sac, Wisconsin. Mrs. Ganfield was the only daughter of her father's family and she had five brothers, Thomas, Henry, George, Samuel and John Patterson. Samuel Patterson, of this city, is therefore the sole surviving brother and a member of the interesting family of the pioneer settler, Richard Patterson. Mr. and Mrs. Ganfield retired from the farm some years ago and took up their residence in Cascade. Mrs. Ganfield was a sincere Christian woman, who took a keen interest in religious affairs, and it was a great source of satisfaction to her that her son and her son-in-law were ministers in the Master's vineyard. She was a devoted member of the Presbyterian denomination and gave her earnest support to the cause of the church in this locality. She was loved and respected by her neighbors and numberless friends, and her death was cause for general mourning in the community. The remains of the deceased were brought to Cascade, arriving on Thursday night, and on Friday afternoon at two o'clock the funeral services were held at the Presbyterian Church, and were conducted by the Rev. David S. de Best, of Wadena, Iowa, former pastor of the Presbyterian Church. The funeral services were very largely attended. This is a newspaper clipping from the collection of Ruby and nine a Martin which I received years ago.
