Author: Goodspeed (1884)

    MRS. NANCY A. LESTER, widow of Peter S. Lester, is a native of Ohio, but
removed with her parents to Greene County, Ind., in 1841, she at that time being
an infant. She was raised to hard work, as were the majority of children in
those days, and in 1858 was united in marriage with Peter S. Lester, whose birth
occurred in Greene County in 1839, and whose life was blended with its history
from his birth until the time of his death in 1869. He was an industrious and
economical citizen, and universally respected by all who knew him. He and wife
were parents of six children, the following being alive—Lizzie M., Joseph W.,
Charles S., Maggie M. and Mary. Mrs. Lester and family reside comfortably and
happily on the old homestead in Taylor Township which consists of 200 acres of
fine farming and grazing land. She is, as was her husband a member of the
Methodist Episcopal Church.
