To this union eight children were born, but one died in infancy. Her husband also passed away about five years ago. The surviving children are H. L., of Philips, S. D., Peter of Carrville, Andrew of Cedar; Thorval, of Bradford; Mrs. G. E. Perrin, of Floyd; Mrs. H. C. Christensen; of Miles; and Mrs. C. B. Stocks of Nashua.
