The Ionia Daily Standard, Monday, January 23, 1899


Mrs. Eliza Fox, wife of Matthew H. Fox, died at Muir, on the 14th inst., in 
the seventy-fifth year of her age.  The funeral was held the following Monday 
afternoon, services being conducted at the house by Rev. George Ransom.  
Interment was made in Oakwood cemetery.

Mrs. Fox was a native of Herkimer county, N.Y., but moved to Muir with her 
family 32 years ago.  Singularly, her death occurred on the 57th anniversary 
of her marriage.  She was a consistent member of the Presbyterian church, an 
exemplary mother, a friend to rich and poor, and in all respects a grand type 
of noble womanhood.  She is sadly missed in the home in particular and by the 
community in general. 

Besides her aged husband she is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Christina 
Smith, whose home is at Brainerd, Minn., and who was a constant attendant upon 
her mother in the last six months of her sickness, and Mrs. J. E. Just, of 
Ionia.  Mr. Fox will make his home with Mrs. Smith at Brainerd, to which place 
they expect to go as soon as circumstances will permit.  He has been a 
familiar figure here so long that he will be greatly missed by his friends.
