Ankeny, perhaps the most notable woman in Iowa, aged 92 years and a resident of Clinton 87 years, passed aware at her home, 433 Sixth agenue, Sunday noon following a steady decline of health and extended over several years. Boring in Indiana in 1832, she came here with her parents in Marth 1837 and lived her continuously almost eighty-seven years. Just one week before her death she enjoyed a gathering in honor of her ninety-second birthday, being then perfectly clear in mind and in fairy health. Mrs. Ankeny leaves nine grandchildren and six great grandchildren. Her sister, Mrs. Nancy Vosburgh, was brought here at the same time but is younger and her other surviving sister, Mrs. Mary Miller, is her junior while her half-brother, Edward Perin, was born many years later. There was one cabin on the site of Clinton when Mrs. Ankeny was brought here and her father built the second one a little south of the present Northwestern bridge and there the Perins lived many years. Her residence was continuous through the eighty-seven years and broken only by such temporary absence as two trips to Europe and one to Mexico. She was married August 14, 1851 to Dr. A.L. Ankeny. Three of her children survive her. Mrs. Welker Given and Mrs. E. A. Young of Clinton, and Mrs. Margaret Bonney of Pasadena. Mrs. Ankeny survived her husband over thirty-six years, making her home at 433 Sixth avenue during that time. An earlier home was on the site of the Clinton opera house and another a mile west of Lyons. Mrs. Ankeny remembered well Indians passing up and down the river and once when several appeared threateningly at the Perin cabin her mother put her out the back window to run and call her father and uncle from the field which she did in good time. Mrs. Ankeny was for many years a devoted member of St. John's Episcopal church. -The Clinton Advertiser, Monday, January 21st, 1924
