Mrs. Orville Webster Robay Mandigo was born in Brownsville, Jefferson county, N. Y., April 11, 1837 and passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Anna Crandall in Cedar Rapids. When 13 years old she came with her parents to Jackson county, Iowa. Her family was among the pioneers in that part of the state. In 1855 she married Orville Webster. Together they started life in a log house made by their own hands. Rugged, hardy people, they founded their family in hard work and homelike interests. Nine children came into the home, six of whom are still living. They are John L. Webster, William S. Webster, Mrs. Lenore Ralston, Mrs. M. W. Rhodes, Mrs. Anna Crandali and Mrs. Julia B. James.
