Wilcox Progressive Era, Thursday, May 17, 1906
Death of Mrs. Mary A. DeVan.
  Mrs. Mary A. DeVan, formerly of Arlington, Ala., but a resident of 
Mobile for about nine or ten years past, died yesterday at 5:30 o'clock 
at the home of her sister, Mrs. Leila Dumas, No. 1008 Spring Hill 
Avenue, after an illness of about ten days. She was in the 84th year of 
her age and last Thursday a week ago missed her footing and fell, 
breaking her hip, from the effects of which she never rallied.
  She is also survived by another sister, Miss Eugenia DeVan, and other 
relatives.
  The deceased was a devout Christian and a member of the Government 
Street Methodist Church. She had made many friends during her residence 
in this city and was greatly beloved among a large circle, many of whom 
will learn of her death with deep regret.
  The remains will be shipped to Arlington, Ala., tomorrow morning via 
Southern Railway for interment. 
- Mobile Register of 14th.
