Mrs. James Jourdan Dead

Heart Trouble Caused Demise of Well Known Orange Lady Thursday.

Mrs. James Jourdan died very suddenly at her home in Orange township last 
Thursday morning at about 11:00 o’clock, of heart trouble.  She had been in 
poor health for some time but her condition appeared to be decidedly improved 
Thursday and she left her bed.  She was lying on the couch and conversing with 
those about her a few moments before death came.

Mrs. Jourdan, whose maiden name was Miss Lydia Jane Price, was born in Wayne 
county, O., March 28, 1845, and came to Michigan in 1860.  Six years later she 
was united in marriage to James Jourdan and the couple have made the Orange 
farm their home since that time.

Besides the husband Mrs. Jourdan is survived by three daughters and two sons, 
who are George L. Jourdan, Mrs. Edgar Davenport, Ionia, Mrs. Leon Bromberg, 
Vermontville, Chauncey and Miss Veda Jourdan, residing at home.

Funeral services were held at the late home Sunday morning at 11:00 o’clock 
conducted by Rev. E. B. Griffin, a U.B. minister of Angola, Ind., and interment 
was made in Portland cemetery.  Mrs. Jourdan leaves a large circle of friends 
to mourn her sudden demise.
