NANCY FORSYTHE

  Mrs. Nancy (Younkin) Forsythe, widow of John C. Forsythe, died at her home on 
the Vanderbilt Road, Connellsville, in her ninetieth year, and was buried in Oak 
Hill Cemetery in Connellsville.  Mrs. Forsythe was born and reared in Lower 
Turkeyfoot Township, a descendent of one of the very early settlers in Somerset 
County.  She belonged to the famous Younkin Association.  For many years Mr. and 
Mrs. Forsythe lived in Ursina, later in Humbert and then in the Connellsville 
district.  Mr. Forsythe passed away several years ago.  Their married life was 
an ideal one.  She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Carmie Earle, one grandson, 
Elmore Brown, of New Kensington, and two great-granddaughters.  Mrs. Forsythe 
had great business acumen and retained her active mind almost to the last.
