ANNA BELLE LEYDIG

  Mrs. Anna Belle (Coleman) Leydig, wife of Isaiah D. Leydig, died Monday 
morning, March 20, at Clewistown, Florida.
  She was born June 24, 1862, and was united in marriage with Mr. Leydig, April 
1, 1887 at Somerset, Pa.  They resided in Salisbury, for a number of years 
before moving to Glencoe, where they lived until November 1928, when they went 
to Clewistown, Fla.
  She is survived by her husband and the following children: Marion and Leah of 
Clewistown, Florida, and Elizabeth, wife of Fred W. DeLozier, South 
Connellsville, Pa., and these grandchildren: Betty Bell, Roberta, Spicer, Marion 
and William DeLozier.  A son, Robert, died in 1906.  A sister, Mrs. Elizabeth 
Barnes, of Pasadena, Calif., also survives.
  Mrs. Leydig was an ardent church worker while in the Glencoe community.  
During the past few years she knit more than 20 sweaters and many pairs of sox 
for the Red Cross.  She enjoyed appliqueing quilts, too.  Her hands were never 
idle.  She leaves a host of friends who mourn her passing.
