Obituary of Nellie May MEADOWS, McDonough County, Illinois This file was contributed for use in the USGenWeb Archives by: Nancy Giles While doing volunteer data entry at our local library in Ontario, California, I came across this obituary which might be of some interest to someone on this list. This does not relate to any surname that I am researching personally. Nancy Nellie May Meadows, wife of Mayhugh Meadows, died last evening at their home, 115 South Sultana, following a six-weeks illness at the age of 84 years. Mr. and Mrs. Meadows marked their 60th wedding anniversary on June 15. A native of Bushnell, Ill., Mrs. Meadows came to Ontario eight years ago from Lawton, Okla. Surviving the octogenarian besides the widower are four daughters, Mamie Barrett, Zoe Kissinger, Dovie Mills and Georgia Wright, all of Ontario; a son, Hugh Meadows, Ontario; three sisters, Blanche Bartholomew, Modesto; Maud Good, Beatty, Ore., and Essie Riley, Kansas City, Mo.; a brother, Arch Bird, Cedar Vale, Kan.; six grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren. Funeral services for Mrs. Meadows will be conducted at the Draper Memorial chapel, 127 West C street. The rites will be followed by entombment at Bellevue mausoleum.
