Diele were performed Tuesday afternoon at the M. E. Church and at the Evergreen Cemetery, where she was laid to rest. Rev. T. H. Schickler conducted the funeral services in the presence of a large number of friends. There were several beautiful floral tributes attesting to the esteem in which Mrs. Diele was held. Nancy Ann Waddle was born April 5th, 1816, and died at the advanced age of 86 years. In 1834 she was married to Thomas Kindred and first came to Sabula in the Spring of 1842. Seven children were the result of their union-four of whom still survive her. In 1849 the family left Sabula intending to go further west, but were compelled to abandon the venture on account of sickness, from which Mr. Kindred lost his life. Returning to Sabula she was married again in 1852 to James Esmay, whose death occurred in 1859. She was again married March 30, 1870 to John S. Diele, who died in 1890. Her death makes another vacancy among Sabula's early pioneers and takes from us a most highly esteemed citizen, and devout Christian, she having been a member of the M. E. Church for over 55 years.
