The Ionia Sentinel-Standard, Wednesday, November 11, 1925

Mrs. Maryetta Lincoln Barnes, one of Ionia’s pioneers, died Tuesday in 
Atlanta, Ga., where she had gone a few months ago from Santa Monica, Cal., to 
be with her son, Dr. W. L. Barnes, who resides in Atlanta.  Mrs. Barnes left 
Ionia a few years ago to live with her sister, Mrs. Jennie Lincoln-Nellis, of 
Santa Monica, but failing health induced her to go to Atlanta this summer.

Mrs. Barnes was one of Ionia’s few remaining pioneers. She was a daughter of 
Dr. and Mrs. W. B. Lincoln.  Dr. Lincoln was Ionia’s first physician and came 
here with the Dexter colony when Ionia was first settled.  Mrs. Barnes’ mother 
was Anthy Arnold, daughter of Oliver Arnold, another Ionia first settler.

She was the widow of Dr. Horace B. Barnes, who was one of Ionia’s leading 
physicians for many years and the old home on East Main street is now the 
property of George Curtis.  Two sons, Dr. W. L. Barnes, of Atlanta, and Ray 
Barnes, of Detroit, survive.

Announcements of the funeral services have not been made but Mrs. Barnes’ 
remains will be brought to Ionia for burial, according to a telegram received 
from Mrs. R. L. Barnes.
