Gladwin County Record dated 11-08/1923 Column - 4 Page - 2
MRS. W. W. HUNTER

   Sarah L.., wife of Wellington W. Hunter of Tobacco township, died Nov. 2, 
1923, at the Saginaw General hospital, to which she had been taken a few days 
previous, after several weeks illness with rheumatic complications, aged 60 
years, 1 month and 5 days. Sarah L. Kennedy was born in Frontenac county, 
Ontario, Sept. 27, 1863, and moved to Essexville, Mich., with her parents when 
one year of age, and from there to Midland county. She was married to 
Wellington W. Hunter Nov. 15, 1882. To this union were born a son, David 
William; and a daughter, Susie Irene, now Mrs. J. W. Myers, who with the 
husband survive to mourn their loss. She also leaves two grandchildren, 
Virginia and Maxine Myers, a brother, George Kennedy of Dundee, Oregon; and 
one sister, Mrs. John Morton of Detroit, besides a large circle of friends by 
whom she was held in high esteem.
   Mr. and Mrs. Hunter were among the pioneers of Tobacco township, where they 
have lived on the same farm since they were married, except four years 
residence in Gladwin when Mr. Hunter was county treasurer.
   Funeral services were held at the farm home Monday at 1 p.m. and from there 
the body was taken to the Dale church, which was filled by old neighbors to 
pay their last token of respect to the departed. A number of members of White 
Clover chapter O.E.S., Gladwin, of which she was a member, were in attendance. 
A large number of floral offerings covered the casket.
   Burial took place in the Dale cemetery. The services were conducted by Rev. 
A. J. Preston of Beaverton, and a Beaverton choir sang. The pallbearers were 
Andrew and Will Snyder, M. L. Kent, C. D. Fairchild, John Flock and Albert 
Mitchell.
