Margaret Rose Enright was born April 30, 1872 near Rose Creek and was married to George Duffy October 23, 1893. To them were born ten children all of whom are living. She is also survived by nineteen grandchildren, three brothers; William Enright of this city, James and Patrick of Saskatchewan, Can. and three sisters, Nellie Werner, Barbara Unterleitner and Kate Potts of Los Angeles. Her husband George Duffy died May 3, 1913. The ten children who survive their mother are Greggory (sic) of Colgan, N.D., George of Minneapolis, Margaret Biggs of Seattle, Livella (sic) Ellis of Strool, S.D., Vivian of this city, Irene McLean and Lewis of Seattle, Ernest of Spokane, Mary Wold of this city and Valeria McKinnon of Wadena. Mrs. Duffy went out west in 1907 with her children and lived in the western part of South Dakota and about 1922 she moved back to this city where she resided until she went to California a few years ago for her health, making her home in Los Angeles. By a coincidence her death occurred upon the anniversary of her husband's birth. Mrs. Duffy devoted her life time to her family. Patient and good natured she worked out her problems. What ever troubles came she met them with a faith that she could overcome them. Her large family of children are proud of her, proud to have called her mother, and they deeply mourn her passing. (Transcribed from original by Susan Mocsny Baker (my great grandmother). Note from transcriber: Gregory was only spelled with one "g" in the middle and the name spelled "Livella" was actually Louella. Also, Maggie died in Alhambra, Los Angeles County, not in the city of Los Angeles. )
