Lake Crystal Union; January 17, 1917

Mrs. M. Nutt

Mrs. Abigail Nutt departed this life on Jan. 9, 1917, at the home of 
her son Ed, in this city at the age of 69 years. She has been a resident 
of Blue Earth county for over 50 years, moving to this state from 
Illinois in 1865 with her parents George and Lucinda Trimble. The trip 
was made overland by horse and ox teams, as was the custom in those days. 
She was married July 5th, 1866, to the late Merritt Nutt, who passed 
away Feb. 23, 1915. Their early married life was spent on a farm near 
Willow Creek, thirty-six years ago this spring, then moved to Lake 
Crystal and having resided here since. She was one of a family of six 
girls and two boys, three sisters and one brother still survive her, 
Alfred Trimble of San Jose, Calif.; Mrs. Addie Baker of Eugene, Ore.; 
Mrs. Elizabeth Foster of Browns Valley , Minn.; and Hattie Sylvester 
of this place. She also leaves four children, Charles of St. Paul, 
Minn.; Edwin, Frank and Mrs. M. J. Barney of Lake Crystal; also 7 
grand-children and one great grand-daughter.  After the death of her 
husband two years ago she has resided in the family residence at the 
corner of Humprhrey and Logan streets, but in December her failing 
health necessitated greater attention and she moved to her son's 
residence where every thing possible was done for her comfort and 
welfare.

The interment was in Crystal View cemetery, in the family lot. The 
services were conducted by Rev. Paden of Mankato assisted by Rev. 
Chapman of this place. Miss Lizabelle Norman, Mrs. Stella Thomas 
assisted by Mrs. Stanley Jones accompanist furnished the music.     
The funeral was conducted by Hugh Jones.
