Rome Sentinel March 13, 1901
Stokes - The death of Mrs. Monroe Hartson, aged 65 years, occurred at her home 
near here on Tuesday at 10 am. The cause of death was pneumonia, superinduced 
by the shock of the death of her son, Dr. Jesse A. Hartson, which occurred in 
Ava on March 7. The day previous to his death she rode from her home to that of 
her son's, about five miles and caught cold, and feeling ill she returned to 
her home the following day and took to her bed, pneumonia developing the same 
day. Mrs. Hartson was, prior to her marriage, Miss Julia VanWagenen, a daughter 
of Mr. & Mrs. Wessel B. VanWagenen, and was born in Chautauqua County. While 
still very young her parents moved to this vicinity. Nearly forty years ago she 
was married to Monroe Hartson and they took up their residence in the house 
where she died. From her long residence here she had made many acquaintances, 
and nearly all had developed into a warm friendship and respect, as the 
deceased was a woman of amiable disposition, kind hearted, and one who was 
ready at all times to befriend a person in need. Besides the husband there 
survive one daughter and two sons, Mrs. William Jones and Lewis N. Hartson of 
North Western and LeRoy C. Hartson who lives with his parents at the homestead, 
a brother, L. Van Wagenen of Westernville, and two sisters, Mrs. E. G. Stevens 
of Camden and Mrs. Jeptha Brainard of Illinois. Much sympathy is expressed for 
the family in their double affliction. The funeral will be held from the 
deceased's late home at 1 pm Friday.
