Harriet A. Newman
May 25, 1842 - Aug.23,1915



ANOTHER PIONEER CALLED

Mrs. Harriet Newman Had Lived in This Vicinity Over 56 Years.

Charlevoix again loses one of its pioneer residents in the death of Mrs. Harriet
Newman, who passed away at her home south of town Monday evening the hours of 10
and 11. The direct cause of her death was a general breaking down and the
infirmaties of old age.

Deceased was born in Iowa 73 years ago, and moved to Charlevoix 
county when but a young woman, having lived here about 56 years. She 
settled on the same farm upon which she died. She is survived by five
children—four boys and one girl: John H., Edward H. and Herbert of 
Charlevoix; J. Austin of Acampo, California, and daughter, Julia, who 
lives at the old homestead.

Mrs. Newman experienced all the the hardships and privations of early 
pioneer life and with her deceased husband took an active part in the 
development of Charlevoix and immediate vicinity.

Funeral services were held from the former residence on Wednesday 
afternoon at 2 o'clock, Rev. Quinton Walker, officiating. Interment at Brookside
cemetery.
