The Ionia Standard, Friday, September 3, 1909

Mrs. Narcissa Kelsey, aged 69 years, widow of the late Major A. F. Kelsey, 
died on Saturday night, at 63 Park street, Grand Rapids, where she made her 
home since leaving Ionia about three years ago.  Deceased will be widely 
remembered as for many years a most hospitable hostess at the farm home on 
Bellevue road about two miles south of Ionia, and later as a resident of this 
city several years.

She is survived by one daughter, Miss Josephine B., and a niece, Miss Margie 
Wilson, who has been a member of the family since childhood. 

The remains were brought to Ionia this afternoon and taken to the home of W. 
B. Heath on Lovell Place, there to rest until Tuesday morning at 10 o’clock, 
when and where the funeral service will be attended with burial in the Balcom 
cemetery in Berlin.
