They have been residents of Ionia 31 years. To this union two children were born, Fred, who passed away two years ago, and Frank, who with the husband survives. She also leaves three brothers, Eugene of Lansing, Martin and Luman Cogswell of Lowell. She was a devoted wife, a loving mother and a good neighbor.

The funeral services were held on Tuesday afternoon from the residence at 2 o’clock, Rev. E. E. Branch officiating. Interment was in Oak Hill cemetery. There was no singing. The bearers were Ralph Cheney, Levi Marshall, Will Conner and W. C. Snell.
