Friday, July 7, 1905

Mrs. Agnes O. Ella Kerr Davis was born in Washington county, Pennsylvania, 
June 1, 1863. Before her birth her father died and at the age of one year her 
mother died. She afterwards made her home with an aunt who cared for her until 
her marriage. At the age of 18, on June 30, 1880, she was married to Ulysses 
S. Davis at Monongahala City, Pa. One year after their marriage they moved to 
Livingston county, Mo. In the year 1889 they moved to Topeka, Kans., and lived 
there until they moved to Payette, Idaho, May 7, 1905. She was taken sick on 
May 19 and died July 2, 1905. 

"The living are the only dead:
The dead live never more to die,
And often when we mourn them fled,
They never were so nigh.
"The joys we lose are but forecast,
And we shall find them all once more
But lo, 'tis all before."

She leaves to mourn her death a husband, two sons, three daughters and a 
daughter-in-law, as follows; Ulysses Davis, Mr. and Mrs. Frank G. Davis, 
Misses Edna, Ina and Margaret Davis and Master John Davis, who take this 
opportunity of thanking the kind friends and neighbors, who, through almost 
strangers, so kindly helped and comforted them in their bereavement. 

Additional Comments:
She is buried at Riverside Cemetery. ch
