The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa Thursday, January 3, 1907 EMMA SAVAGE was born in Henry County, this State, Oct. 20, 1851, and died at Oakley, Dec. 26, 1906, after an illness of only twenty-four hours of peritonitis and perforation of gastric ulcers, at the age of 55 years, 2 months and 24 days. She was united in marriage to MR. CICERO GILLASPIE in the year of 1869, and moved to Oakley, this county, where she has since resided. To this union were born ten children, four of whom preceded her to the better world. She united with the Baptist Church when but sixteen years of age and lived a true devoted Christian life. The remaining children were all present on this sad occasion with the exception of one daughter, MRS. HATTIE FRESHER, of Aurora, Ill. Funeral services, conducted by Rev. Brown of Oakley, were held at the Christian Church after which interment was made in Niswender Cemetery. The sorrowing friends have the sympathy of the community in their great hour of trouble. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Copied by Nancee(McMurtrey)Seifert November 20, 2004 iggy29@rnetinc.net http://www.rootsweb.com/~ialucas/Main.htm Notify Administrator about this message?
