Mrs. McGough Dead 

Mrs. Isabella McGough, widow of the late Thomas McGough, died at her home 
in Croyle Township near Lovett, Sunday afternoon after a long illness, 
death being due to diseases incident to old age.

Mrs. McGough, whose maiden name was Isabella Plummer, was born in Croyle 
Township on August 31, 1834 and was a daughter of John Plummer.  She was 
united in marriage to Thomas McGough at Wilmore in 1855 by the Rev. Father 
Tobias Mullen, afterwards Bishop of the Erie diocese of the Catholic 
Church.  Her husband died in 1870 and Mrs. McGough has since continued to 
live on the old homestead.

The deceased is survived by one sister, Mrs. Catharine Stoltz of Altoona, 
and three sons:  Daniel A. McGough of Ebensburg; Charles McGough of 
Johnstown and George McGough of Franklin Borough.

The funeral took place Wednesday morning from St. Bartholomew's Catholic 
Church at Wilmore of which the deceased was a lifelong member.  A requiem 
high mass was celebrated by the pastor, the Rev. Father McKenna, after 
which interment took place in the Wilmore Catholic Cemetery.
