OBITUARY: Margaret Robson Folsom, 1808-1900,
Mrs. Margaret Robson Folsom was born in Northumberland, England, December 6, 1808. She came to America with her parents in 1812 and lived in Herringsford, Canada until 1831, when she married Z. Allan Folsom and went to northern New York to live. In 1857 they moved to Janesville, Wisconsin, and in 1869 to Boone, Iowa, where she lived until about one year ago, when she came to make her home with her daughter Mrs. M. S. Stacy.
She leaves five daughters to mourn her loss, her husband and seven children having preceded her.
Many years ago, she with her husband united with the M. E. Church, but in later years she has attended the Congregational church.
Our mother led a very active and useful life having been one of that useful band, now fast passing, of "pioneer women," having experienced the toils and privations of pioneer life in those widely separated portions of our land.
She passed away December 27, 1900, at Osage, Iowa, in the ninety-third year of her age.
The funeral and interment was at Boone, Sunday December 30. A large company of relatives and old friends laid the mortal remains at rest by the side of others of her loved ones who had preceded her to the better land.
