Hannah Nickerson, aged 91 years. Mrs. Nickerson was born in Manchester, 
Vermont, June 22, 1794. She was married on March 2, 1816, and went to New York

numbered among the early settlers in a region comparatively wild. 

After a protracted illness, she passed away peacefully at Monmouth. Four 
children remain to mourn her loss, as well as a large number of grandchildren 
and great-grandchildren. Funeral services were conducted at Buckhorn on
