The Belding News, Thursday, June 19, 1905

Mrs. Eliza A. Parker died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. T. Angell in 
this city last Friday, aged nearly 81 years.  

Eliza A. Edmonston was born at Manchester, N.Y., on June 24, 1824.  In January 
1845 she was married to Benj. A. Parker.  To this union three children were 
born, all of whom are now living, as follows:  John C. Parker of Palmyra, 
N.Y.; Mrs. J. T. Angell, of Belding and Mrs. M. B. Divine, of Portland, Mich.  
In 1875 Mr. Parker and family moved from their eastern home to Michigan, 
locating in this city, where he engaged in the banking business and, until the 
time of his death, on Oct. 27, 1889, was prominent among business and social 
circles.

Deceased was possessed of a loveable disposition; always kind, generous and 
true to neighbor and friend and was highly esteemed by all who had the 
pleasure of her acquaintance.

A short funeral service was held at the house last Saturday afternoon, 
conducted by Rev. A. Secord, after which Mrs. Angell and Mrs. Divine 
accompanied the remains to Palmyra, N.Y., where they were laid at rest beside 
those of her husband.
