She went to Denver, Colorado; where she resided from 1881 until 1885, and was married to Frank F. Stanton on June 3, 1885. To this union was born four sons -- James W., Frederick, Charles, who died at Cheyenne, Wyoming, at the age of 14, and William of Pennsylvania. After their marriage the Stantons moved to Silver Crown, Wyoming and resided there until 1896, when they moved to Cheyenne, and lived there until 1910, when they came to Payette, and have made this their home ever since, until she passed away July 9, 1923, aged 61 years, 4 months and 5 days. The deceased was a true and faithful wife, a kind and loving mother, an a generous and good neighbor, to which all will testify who live in her vicinity. She was a loyal and consistent member of the Baptist church for 25 years, altho the condition of her health for the past 3 or 4 years did not permit her to attend services as much as she wished. She nevertheless, lived a true and consistent Christian life. The end came from the result of an attack of heart trouble. The funeral was held at the Payette Baptist church on Wednesday, at 4 p. m., conducted by Rev. H. S. Black, pastor of the Fruitland Baptist church, owing to the absence of the local pastor, Rev. Buell. Interment was made in Riverside cemetery. The sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved husband and children.
