Stricken with the same disease which took away her husband, 
a bronchial affection, just four months ago, Mrs. Ann 
Howell, died Tuesday morning at 1:15 o'clock at the 
residence of her son-in-law, Charles W. Horrell, No. 326 
Orchard street, Knoxville, Pittsburg, in her seventy-fifth 
year.

The deceased was a daughter of Evan Jones, a native of 
Wales who settled in Cambria township, this county, in 
1825.  He expired there in 1853.  Ann Jones was born in 
Cambria township and was married at Ebensburg fifty years 
ago to John Howell. The Howell family resided in Johnstown 
for several years after the Great Flood of 1889, moving 
from there to Somerset and later to Pittsburg.  John 
Howell, who was a well known carpenter, expired at the 
Horrell residence on November 3d of last year.

Funeral services over the remains of Mrs. Ann Howell were 
held in Knoxville at 8 o'clock Wednesday evening and the 
remains were brought to this place yesterday morning.  
Interment was made in Lloyd Cemetery on the arrival of the 
branch train at 10 o'clock.

Mrs. Howell is survived by four daughters: Maria, wife of 
W. H. Tudor of Indianapolis; Martha, wife of Cyrus Hubbard 
of New York City; Mary, wife of Henry G. Muller of 
Pittsburg and Urania, wife of Charles W. Horrell of 
Knoxville.  Robert E. Jones, of Ebensburg, is the 
deceased's only brother.
