The Ionia Sentinel, Wednesday, February 18, 1885

Died at the residence of Jacob Ladow, February 13, 1885, Rose Jane Smith, aged 
eight years, six months and eleven days.

Jennie, as she was called, was the adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jacob 
Ladow. She was taken sick with scarlet fever while attending school at the 
Holcomb school house, but recovered from this attack and was able to be around 
the house, when she had a relapse which proved fatal.  The funeral took place 
Sunday forenoon at 11 o’clock from the Holcomb school house, Rev. D. A. Jewell 
officiating.  

Mr. and Mrs. Ladow adopted the child about six years ago, since then their 
house has been her home and she knew no other parents or friends.  She has, 
however, a father and three young brother living, but their whereabouts are 
not known.  If other papers will copy the substance of this article it may 
lead to giving her family a knowledge of her death.  The family once lived in 
this city.
