The Somerset Herald Wed Nov 04 1896 
Lucinda, wife of J. J. Shaffer, of Jenner township, died at her home at 9
o'clock on Saturday night. Mrs. Shaffer had been sick for several years, but was
not compelled to take her bed until a few weeks ago. She was unconscious for a
week before death came. The cause of her demise was a complication of diseases.
She was born in Jenner township about fifty-five years ago. Her mother, Lucinda

followed his wife to the other world several years later. She was a sister of
Mrs. John Thomas, Mrs. George Markle and David Griffith, of Johnstown; Obadiah
Griffith, of Morrellville, Abner, of Jenner township, and Josiah, of
Jennerstown. Beside her husband, she is survived by two sons and two daughters.,
viz: Morgan, of Dale; Mrs. Minnie Hoffman, of near Somerset; Jacob and Bertha
Griffith who are at home. The funeral took place at 2 o’clock Monday afternoon,
the remains being laid to rest in the Lutheran graveyard at Jennerstown. Mrs.
Shaffer was a faithful member of the Jennerstown Lutheran Church. She was a good
woman, a devoted wife, and a loving mother, and held in the highest esteem by
all who knew her.
