Abigail V. Barnes was born Jan. 16, 1840 at New Milford, Conn., and died March 4, 1917, at her son's home in Des Moines, at the age of 77 years.
While yet a small child, she with her parents, emigrated to Wisconsin and soon after moved to Clinton county, Iowa. Here she grew to womanhood and was married to Geo. A. Quick. She went to Illinois with her husband soon after their marriage, where they remained until 1882, when they moved to Madison county, where she has lived ever since.
She was converted and united with the Methodist Episcopal church in Winterset. She has maintained a good hope and faith in Jesus Christ as her Savior. She leaves to mourn her loss three sons: Ira M. of Norwalk, Wm. A. of this place and Chas A. of Des Moines, besides several grand children and a host of friends. Three children died in infancy and one at 23 years of age.
The funeral was held at the Union Chapel church Tuesday afternoon, conducted by Rev. M. M. Cable, pastor of the Methodist church of Winterset and the remains were laid to rest in the cemetery at the same place.
