An Old Settler Gone to Rest

Margaret McFee was born in Ohio March 30, 1842, and left for the better world April 13, 1918, being 76 years and 13 days of age. She came to Iowa in an early day and was united in marriage to Gilbert Hunt near Independence, Iowa.

After living there a few years they moved to Michigan, where they resided for nearly twenty years. They then came back to Iowa and lived east of Nashua until the time of her death, which came as a relief to her as she had been bedridden for the past year. The immediate cause of her death was pneumonia.

Three children were born to this union, Levi of Nashua, William of Hudsonville and John of Rock Lake, N.D., who died several years ago. Her husband preceded her January 27, 1912, since which time she has made her home with her son Levi and family. She leaves to mourn her loss two sons, ten grandchildren and one great grandchild, two sisters and a brother in Oregon. The funeral was held Monday afternoon at 1:30, Rev. Gilliam of Fredericksburg officiating, and interment was made in Greenwood.
