The Portland Observer, Thursday, December 15, 1932

Mrs. Charles Hyland, 70, one of Portland’s Gold Star mothers died Sunday 
afternoon at her home on the west side, after an illness of about two years 
which became serious during the past fall.  Funeral services were held at the 
Baptist church Wednesday afternoon, in charge of Rev. J. H. Stewart, with 
members of the local American Legion and Auxiliary attending a body.  Burial 
was made in Portland cemetery.

Mrs. Hyland’s maiden name was Lavina Crowell.  She was born in Tiflin, Ohio, 
April 16, 1862, and with her parents came to Michigan when five years of age, 
the family settling in Orange township.  On July 4, 1881, she was united in 
marriage to Mr. Hyland, the couple celebrating their Golden wedding July 4, 
1931.  From this union nine children were born, two passing away in infancy.  
A son, Lee, died four years ago last February.  Another son, Dale, was killed 
in the World War and his memory later honored when the local ex-service men 
gave their organization the name of Dale E. Hyland post, American Legion.

Besides the husband three sons and two daughters survive.  They are Fay, 
professor in the forestry department at the University of Maine; Ward and 
Estin, of Portland, and Mrs. Walter Emerick and Mrs. Clarence DeLaVergne, also 
of this village.  Twelve grandchildren and four great grandchildren also 
survive.
