Obituary – Cary 1941-1923

Phoebe Ann, youngest daughter of Oliver and Rachel Lapham, was born at Republic,
Ohio, August 26th, 1841, and departed this life September 3rd, 1923, aged 82
years and 8 days.  She was the last surviving member of her family.  She was
married to John Cary December 19, 1866, at Republic.  To this union were born
two children, Samuel Yoder, and a daughter, Flora Pearl, who died in infancy. 
Over half a century ago they came to the farm in Boston township which has since
been their home.  Mrs. Cary was a member of the Methodist church and during the
years of her strength was an active worker.  Two years ago she suffered a stroke
and has been in failing health since that time.  A few weeks ago she injured
herself in a fall and this was the direct cause of her death.  Tender and loving
care only served to relieve her as her infirmities were too heavy.  She is
survived by John Cary, her aged husband, by Samuel Cary and wife and their two
sons, besides her many friends and neighbors.  Funeral service was held on
Thursday afternoon, Rev. E. R. Cochrun officiated; the burial was in the South
Boston cemetery.
