Ionia Standard, 27 Feb 1914

Obituary

Matilda Jane King was born in the State of Kentucky August 1, 1849, and died in
Easton township, Ionia county, Monday, February 16, 1914, aged 64 years, 6
months and 8 days.  When about 20 years of age she came to Michigan, and in
Saranac, on March 22, 1874, she was united in marriage to George R. Corey,
settling in Easton township, this county.  To this union were born three
children, one son, who died in infancy, and two daughters, Mrs. Hester Phillips
and Mrs. Nettie Phillips, both of Ionia, who with their father, George R. Corey,
and one sister, Mrs. Frank Thompson, of Lansing, are left to mourn their loss. 
Besides these immediate relatives, she leaves a number of friends and
acquaintances, many of whom gathered at the home to extend their loving sympathy
to the bereft ones.

Funeral services were conducted Wednesday at two p.m. by Rev. C.W. Lyman, of the
Evangelical church, in the late home.  Mrs. Willis Peck and Mrs. R.A. Colwell
sang several touching selections. Owing to a painful accident, in which she
sustained a broken hip, Mrs. Frank Thompson of Lansing could not attend the
services.  Interment was in Oak Hill cemetery.
