Ionia Sentinel, Wednesday, 20 Sep 1939

Mrs. William Sykes, 78, widow of William Sykes, died at her home at Muir 
Tuesday, September 19, at 5 p.m. following an illness of several years. 

She was born June 14, 1861, in New York state, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 
Levi Scott.

Survivors are one son, Roland, of Ann Arbor and two daughters, Mrs. Jessie 
Dilley of Ionia and Mrs. Sherman Ely of Lansing.

Funeral services will be held at 2:30 p.m. Thursday at the home with Rev. Paul 
L. Stewart officiating.  Burial will be in the mausoleum at Highland Park 
cemetery.

At the age of five Angela Scott came to Caledonia with her parents.  Following 
her marriage to William Sykes November 21, 1893, she came to Muir, where she 
resided since then.  A member of the Presbyterian church, an honorary member of 
the Presbyterian Ladies’ Aid society and the Woman’s Library club, Mrs. Sykes 
gave much of her time and talent to village improvements until failing health 
prevented her taking an active part.

Survivors, besides her two daughters, are four grandchildren, William, Robert 
and Sarah Sykes and Rolland Ely; one great grandchild, Jerry Harwood; and one 
brother, William Scott of Caledonia.
