Death of Notable Woman

Mrs. Anna Noggle, mother of Mrs. John McGlinchey of this city, died at Monroe, 
Wis., February 5, at the age of 91 years. Mrs. Noggle will be remembered by 
many Idaho pioneers as she resided in this state from 1869 to 1875, her 
husband at that time being chief justice of Idaho. Several years ago she 
visited Mrs. McGlinchey in Payette, making many friends among the people of 
the city. She leaves a twin sister, Mrs. H. H. Johnson of Omaha. She and Mrs. 
Johnson were often mentioned in the newspapers as the oldest twins in the 
United States.

The Monroe correspondent of the Milwaukee Sentinel gives the following account 
of Mrs. Noggle's life.

"The death of Mrs. Anna Noggle here on Sunday separates two notable twins. 
Mrs. Noggle was nearly 91 years old and leaves a sister, Mrs. H. H. Johnson of 
Omaha. She was born on May 29, 1815, in the town of Greenfield, New York. Her 
maiden name was Anna Lewis, and with her parents moved to Ohio, where in the 
town of Milan Oct. 15, 1834, she was married to the late Judge Noggle, who 
died in Janesville in the year 1878, at the close of a notable career as 
lawyer, judge, and politican in southern Wisconsin, where he spent the best 
years of his life almost continuously from 1839 to 1878. Two years after their 
marriage Mr. and Mrs. Noggle moved west to Winnebago county, Ill., and in 1839 
settled in Beloit, Wis. During their residence in this state Mr. Noogle won 
fame as a lawyer, judge of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit court, and as a member 
of the state legislature. In the year 1869 the judge was appointed chief 
justice of Idaho by President Grant, and Mrs. Noggle accompanied him to the 
western state, remaining there until 1875, when they returned and took up 
their home in Janesville.

The years later Judge Noggle was laid to rest in Oakhill cemetery, and Mrs. 
Noggle lived with her daughter, Mrs. C. G. Williams, in Janesville until 1899, 
when she came to reside with Mrs. Puffer in this city."
