The Portland Observer, Thursday, September 21, 1922
Mrs. Adeline Wainwright, aged 86 years, passed away Friday night at the home 
of Fred Miner, where she had been making her home.  Mrs. Wainwright was born 
in New York state and when four years of age came to Portland with her 
parents, her father conducting a hotel on the west side of the river for a 
number of years, later moving on a farm.

She was the widow of the late Nelson Wainwright who died nine years ago 
leaving an estate of considerable worth.  Dying without any near relatives, 
Mrs. Wainwright bequeathed the bulk of her estate, valued at $20,000 to 
charity, the Orphans’ Home in Detroit and a hospital at Kalamazoo getting the 
bulk of that amount.

Funeral services were held at the Miner home Sunday afternoon.  Interment took 
place in the Portland cemetery.
