Mrs. Lee Russell 08/30/1887 ~ 11/04/1918
This was transcribed from a copy of a newspaper article 
given to me by my mother, Marian Russell Koska Elgin, 
who was her daughter.
Ada Taylor was born August 30, 1887, in Plainview, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. 
David Taylor. She passed away at her home two miles north of Plainview, early 
Monday morning, Nov. 4, due to the ravages of the dread malady which has so 
recently stricken so many of our friends and loved ones. 
December 11, 1907, she was united in marriage to Robert Lee Russell, in River 
Falls, Wis., where they resided a short time when they took up their home for 
about a year at Elgin, after which they came to Plainview, where they have since 
made their home. The home was blessed with three children, Eva, Inez, and Marion 
the baby but seven months old, all of whom with her huband and mother, Mrs. L. 
Taylor and one brother, Ernest Taylor of A---worth, Nebr., survive. 
Deceased was a devoted wife and mother, kind and loving to all and especially 
attached to her home. She was an earnest and sincere Christian and exceptionally 
true to the profession of faith in Christ. Her loyalty to this faith and the 
church was often shown in her effort to be present at the services. Such lives 
as hers help to honor the Creator and the (victory?) of such lives will help us 
all to (be?) and do better until death shall claim us. 
Funeral services were conducted Monday afternoon at 1 o'clock by (Rev.?) H.J. 
(Hill?), pastor of the Church of Christ, and interment made in Greenwood 
cemetery.
