Funeral Services Held From Home Sunday Afternoon

Charlotte Euell was born in Washington County, Kentucky, January 25, 1859.
On November 19, 1878, she was married to William Wallace GREEN in Washington
County. They were the parents of three children, one of whom died in infancy
in 1870 (sic). The other two children. Rodman Ira of Oswego and William
Albert of Columbus, survive.
In 1885 Mrs. GREEN moved with her family to McDonald (sic) County, Ill.,
where she resided until they moved to Miami, Okla., in 1908.
Thirteen years ago she and her husband moved to Columbus where she made her
home with her son until her death at his home Thursday. Her husband died
March 15, 1920, also at the son's home.
Mrs. GREEN was converted 26 years ago and was a member of the Methodist
church. She was patient and uncomplaining through all her suffering and
sickness, a part of which lasted a number of years. She was cheerful and
faithful in
health, in sickness, and even until the hour of death; a good friend and a
good mother and neighbor.
In addition to the two sons she is survived by two sisters, Marshall of Mt.
Vernon, Mo., and Mrs. Sallie MARSHALL of Blandonsville (sic), Ill., one
niece, two nephews and six grandchildren.
Transcriber's notes:
Article reported the infant death in "1870"; year probably should be either
1879 or 1880.
"McDonald County, Ill." should read "McDonough County, Ill." and "Blandinsville"
should be spelled "Blandinsville."
Both Charlotte and William Wallace GREEN were buried at Blandinsville, Illinois
