Obituary of Nancy Ann Bostwick Crow

Wednesday, 8 December 1926, Clark County (IL) Democrat


Nancy Ann Bostwick, daughter of Archibald and Catherine Bostwick, was born
June 16, 1840, and after a few weeks of illness fell peacefully asleep,
Friday evening, December 3, 1926, at the age of 86 years, 5 months and 17
days.

She was born and reared to young womanhood near Fairbanks, Sullivan
county, Indiana, where she was united in marriage to Samuel Crow, on April
7, 1859, and to this union eight children were born, three daughters, and
five sons.  Nancy C. Cooper of West Union, Martha E. Evans of West York,
Naomi Newlin of Fort Gibson, Miss,  Voorheis, James, William, Benjamin and
Samuel Crow of West Union.

Besides her immediate family she leaves one brother, John Bostwick, who
made his home with her and one foster child, Mrs. Lizzie Brown, of Kansas
City, Mo., 28 grandchildren, 45 great grandchildren, and two great great
grandchildren, also a host of friends to mourn her death. 

Her husband preceded her in death on July 7, 1906.  More than 25 years ago
she with her husband united with the Christian church at West Union during
the ministry of Bro. Richard Layton and remained true to her faith until
death came.

Servant of God, well done
They glorious warfare's passed.
The battle's fought, the race is won.
And thou art crowed at last

Funeral services were held at the Christian church in West Union, Sunday
afternoon, with Elder R. C. Mowery of Marshall, officiating, and burial
was made in the Bradbury cemetery.
