MARY ROGERS BRADLEY- 

Mary Rogers was born in New Jersey, April 12, 1852. She was married to 
Peter 
Bradley July 19, 1869. They came to Iowa in 1883, where they have since 
resided. This happy union was blessed with thirteen children, William, 
Charlie 
of Clinton, Maude of Dixon, Illinois, Peter, Oscar, Abraham of Clinton, 
Alice, 
John, Elizabeth, Mattie, Harry, Burton, Nellie and Daniel, who died in 
infancy. 

The thirteen children and the bereaved husband were present at the 
funeral and 
followed the remains to their last resting place. Besides these she 
leaves to 
mourn her death, two brothers and one sister in New Jersey and two 
brothers in 
Bridgewater, Iowa. Mary was an affectionate wife and a loving mother. 
She was 
a firm believer in the Christian religion, a constant church member, 
always 
living such a life so that at any moment when her Master called, she 
would be 
ready to answer the summons. For seven years she has been a patient 
sufferer 
with consumption, always bearing her affliction with a light heart and 
without 
one word of complaint, until the angel of death called her on the 
morning of 
March 28, 1901, when without a struggle her spirit returned to her 
maker. 

The funeral services were held at the home on North Otto Street on 
Sunday, 
March 31 , where a large number of friends assembled to pay their last 
earthly 
tribute to the departed and express their sympathy to the family. 
Interment 
was in Mount Hope Cemetery, Rev. D. F. Boomershine officiating.
