[Osage News April 20, 1899]
Nellie Featherstone Cummings was born in Rock county, Wisconsin, Jan. 18, 1861, and died at her home near Fuller, Mitchell County, April 16, 1899.
She was married to Myron Cummings Nov. 25, 1896. Last summer they adopted a girl baby, whose life-has seemed to hang in the balance since her birth. On the morning of the day of the funeral, little Esther Edna's life went out and the body was tenderly laid to rest in the casket with her foster mother. Mrs. Cummings was a model home maker, a faithful wife, and a kind mother to her adopted child.
The Pleasant Valley M. E. Church and community have each lost a valuable member.
The funeral was conducted by Rev. Geo. B.Crinklaw in the Pleasant Valley church, and the body interred in the Osage cemetery, a large number of neighbors and friends being present.
