Melina MOON, consort of William MOON, deceased, died at her residence, Monday evening, after an illness of eight weeks which was superinduced by a fall. She was 82 years and 10 months old and one of the earliest settlers of Fulton county. She, with her husband, settled in Wayne township, in 1844, having come from Kentucky, where she was born in 1816. She was an enthusiastic and devout member of the Baptist church for 50 years and was the mother of ten children. Hon. Sidney R. MOON and the wife of Commissioner Ben BRUCE being two of them. The funeral was conducted at the old Moon homestead, Wednesday, and a very large concourse of people paid the last tribute of respect to one of the noblest of Fulton county mothers. |
