Belding Banner News, 4 Aug 1927

Mrs. Mary Moon, an aged resident of this city, was found dead in her chair 
Tuesday morning by Mrs. Mary Trimble, a next door neighbor, at her home at 121 
W. Ann street.  She was 91 years and 6 months of age and has been living alone 
for several years.  The neighbors, by whom she was well known and highly 
respected, were very kind and appreciative of her old age and of course kept in 
close touch with her and her wants were never lacking so far as they were 
concerned.  She was apparently as well as usual and had eaten her breakfast.  
She was discovered about 8:30 o’clock in a sitting posture relining in a 
rocking chair.  It is reported that heart trouble was the cause of her death.

Mrs. Moon was one of the old pioneers left of sixteen families moving here from 
New York when she was nine years old and settling in Otisco township where she 
lived on the farm until moving to Belding 22 years ago.  The husband, Frank A. 
Moon, passed away about 37 years ago.

She leaves to mourn their loss 2 nieces, Clara Demorest and Mrs. May Little, 
also 2 nephews, Allen T. Demorest, of San Antonio, Texas and A.W. Demorest, of 
Lansing.  Mrs. Moon was a charter member of the Church of Christ and has always 
remained faithful.  Funeral services will be held at the home on Thursday 
afternoon at 2 o’clock.  Rev. H.E. Curch officiating.  Interment at the Otisco 
cemetery.
