Rome Sentinel August 21, 1911
Lee Center - Mrs. Maryette Bronson Hitchcock, widow of Curtis B. Hitchcock, 
died at her home in Lee Center August 19, 1911, in the 79th year of her age. 
She was born in the town of Floyd, a daughter of the late Eli and Rosina 
Bronson. Married at the age of nineteen she had always since resided in the 
home where she died, respected and loved by family, friends and kindred. Her 
home was her kingdom, but she was always ready to lend a helping hand to any 
who were in need. She was the mother of seven children, five of whom have 
passed on to the better land, where her faith assured her she will meet them 
and all the dear ones gone before. She was a firm believer in the universal 
fatherhood of God and that faith sustained her in her hours of suffering. She 
bids farewell to all who so kindly cared for her during her illness which, 
while not long, was severe, and patiently waited and longed for the summons to 
pass on to the better life, with a prayer on her lips for the welfare of those 
left behind. She was a faithful member of the Universalist Church. She is 
survived by two children, Willis G. Hitchcock of Freeport, L. I., and Mrs. 
Kittie Lyman of Lee Center, also six grandchildren and five great-
grandchildren, three sisters, Mrs. H. A. Bork of Lee, Mrs. C. Dean of Vernon 
Center, and Mrs. E. J. Bellinger of Brooklyn, and one brother, Charles E. 
Bronson of Boonville. Funeral will be conducted by the Rev. George Cross Baner 
of Utica, assisted by Rev. George Dermott of Lee Center at 2 o'clock Tuesday, 
Aug. 23.
