The vicinity of Richmond was shocked at the announcement of the sudden death of Mrs. Maurice McGaugh which occurred at her home 2 miles east of Richmond, Saturday afternoon, January 1, 1916, at 3 o’clock. Myron Brown was born in Richmond, April 18, 1892, and was in her 24th year at the time of her death. She was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William D. Brown, residing near town. She grew to womanhood in this vicinity, attending the public schools and graduated from Woodson Institute. On December 2, 1913, she was married to Mr. Maurice McGaugh, a son of Judge and Mrs. Galen McGaugh. They have since resided on a farm 2 miles east of Richmond. Mrs. McGaugh was converted and united with the Richmond Methodist Church several years ago, and was a Christian young woman, who had the love and respect of a large host of friends in this community. Besides the husband, mother and father, she is survived by two brothers, Messrs. Craig and Gerald Brown, and one sister Miss Mary, and a host of other relatives who are left to mourn the loss of a loved one. Mrs. McGaugh’s time with us was short in years and her sudden death bring sadness to the hearts of many-the young women and young men with whom she associated at the schools of our town and in the society of which she was a member. The young husband and the family have the heartfelt sympathy of all in their sad hour of bereavement. The funeral services were conducted at the family residence 2 miles east of town, Monday morning, 10 o’clock, by her pastor, Rev. Cecil M. Aker, after which interment was made in the family burying ground at the Hill Cemetery on the Bown farm. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by Jenna Zunker USGENWEB NOTICE: In keeping with our policy of providing free genealogical information on the Internet, data may be freely used for personal research and by non-commercial entities, as long as this message remains on all copied material.
