25 March 1875- The Tipton Advertiser
MRS. ISABELLA SAFLEY died last week Tuesday, near Mt. Vernon, in Linn county, at the very advanced age of one hundred and three years. Mrs. Safley was born in Scotland November 11th, 1771. For fifty years she has lived a widow. Forty years ago last month, with other members of the family, she left Scotland for America, and for at least thirty-five years of that time Iowa has been her home. For several years before her death "Grandmother" Safley was undoubtedly the oldest person in the State.
