The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, January 10, 1907
NAOMI STEWART was born in Clay County, Kentucky, February 6, 1824, and died
at the home of her daughter, MRS. ELIZABETH ALLEN, at Woodburn, December 28,
1906, aged 82 years, 10 months and 22 days. When but a child her parents
moved to Indiana and in 1846 she was married to MABERY SKIDMORE. They moved
to Lucas County in 1863. Nine children were born of their union, of whom
but one, MRS. T.J. ALLEN of Woodburn, is living. MR. SKIDMORE died in 1897,
since which time she has made her home with her daughter. There are eight
grandchildren living, four residing in kansas; one in Denver, Col., and
three in this community.
MRS. SKIDMORE, or Grandma, as she was lovingly called, was a member of the
Christian Union Church, and her life has been a blessing to those with whom
she came in contact. Sympathetic in disposition, she was ever anxious to
aid and comfort those in sorrow or distress, and rejoice with those who were
happy. In her last long and painful illness she was comforted by the
knowledge that her life had been well spent and the promised reward in
Heaven.
The funeral services were held at the Presbyterian Church on Monday last,
Rev. W.B. Pond officiating, and was very largely attended. The remains were
interred in Rose Hill Cemetery.
