Jeffersonian Republican. (Stroudsburg, Pa.) 1853-1911: February 01, 1872
In Coolbaugh township, Monroe county, Pa., on Wednesday, January 17th, 1872, after a
long and painful illness, Jane C., wife of John P. Dowling, Esq., aged 68 years, 11
mos. & 3 days. This estimable lady, with her husband, came from New York City, about
forty years ago and settled in the northern part of this county. Here they contended
against all the hardships and privations incident to an early settlement in a wild,
unfrequented region of country, but with that stern energy and perseverance which
was a peculiar characteristic of both herself and husband, they battled successfully
against every trial and difficulty that presented itself to them, and succeeded, not
only in raising a large family but also in accumulating enough of this worlds goods
to place themselves in a comfortable position... The funeral services were conducted
by the Rev. S. R. Gillingham of Tobyhanna. Her remains were interred in Sterling,
Wayne county, Pa., and were followed to the grave by a large concourse of mourning
relatives and friends.
