QUINN, Rose 
1826-1906 
Nee McNULTY

The Dodgeville Chronicle, Dodgeville, Iowa Co., Wi. Fri 08 Jun 1906
After an illness of six weeks, Mrs. Rose Quinn, died at her home in
Avoca May 29th, 1906. Mrs. Quinn was born in county Tyrone, Ireland,
in 1826, and came to America with an unle in 1841, settling at
Lowell, Mass. Nov.15th, 1848, she became the wife of Patrick Quinn,
and in 1866 they moved to Avoca, Wis., which has ever since been her
home. Seventeen years ago she was bereft of her companion, but has
continued to keep up the home. She was the mother of ten children,
two having preceded her to the better land. All of her eight
children, except Patrick, of Spokane, Wash., ministered to her wants
during her sickness and were present at her funeral, viz.,John, of
St. Paul, Mrs. J. Conner, of Clyde, Mrs. Walter Leach, of Avoca,
Mrs. August Reuter, of Woodlawn, Wis., and Mary Ellen, Stephen and
Theresa, of Avoca. The passing of Mrs. Quinn removes from the family
circle a loving mother who was isolized by her children, and during
her widowhood her younger children have nobly provided for her
wants. Mrs. K. was a kind neighbor, always willing to aid those
needing assistance. To those of the family who have ministered to
her needs most closely her loss will be felt most deeply. The
funeral services took place May 31st, at St. Joseph's church in
Avoca, Rev. Father Pruchia, of Musoda, saying High Mass and
preaching an appropriate discourse. Her remains were laid to rest by
the side of her husband at the Otter Creek cemetery.
