Lake Odessa Wave, 31 Mar 1926

Christian Many Yrs. Passes Beyond Vale

Mother of Samuel Wolford and Mrs. Mary Hubbard Died after Life of Eighty-two 
Years.

Mrs. Elizabeth Wolford living five miles west of town, died last Monday at the 
age of nearly eighty-two years.  For a number of years the husband and father 
has been an invalid and it looked as though the father was to leave the home 
first, but not so, death called the mother, leaving the invalid husband who 
will be cared for by the son Samuel and his good wife.  These old people have 
lived in this vicinity since 1888 or forty-eight years.  In 1868 she united 
with the church continuing the Christian life fifty-eight years.  An enviable 
record of service.

She was the mother of eleven children seven sons and four daughters.  Two sons 
and two daughters having preceded her in death.

Those left are Samuel H., living near the old home, John of High River, 
Alberta, Washington of Gillett, Wis., David of Manchester, O., Solomon at home, 
Mrs. Mary A. Hubbard of Lake Odessa and Mrs. Emma Beagle of Lansing.

There are thirty-three grandchildren and  nine great grandchildren.

The funeral was held at the home Monday and burial was at Lake Side cemetery.
