At the age of seven years she removed with her parents to Gibson county, Ind.. and settled near Poseyville. Here she grew to womanhood and Novem ber 14, 1861, was united in marriage to Francis A. Knowles. To this union were born eight children, six of whom, three daughters and three sons survive. She was a member of the M.

We mourn her not as dead but as one gone before to welcome us, when we, too, must answer the summons that shall come to each of us. Contributed.
