Of the three sons and three daughters that survive, only two daughters, Mrs. Almina Wilson and Mrs. Mary Bidleman, were present at the funeral. Her husband was a soldier in the last war with England, and one of her sons died in Andersonville prison, on which account she was entitled to draw a pension while living. In early life she made a profession of religion and united with the M. E. church.

A large number of friends were present, and a long procession, composed chiefly of children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren, followed the remains of the affectionate mother and esteemed friend to their last resting place."
