DONOHO, Electa E.
"An Old Pioneer Gone "MILFORD, June 8, 1893 - Mrs. Electa E. Donoho, one of the earliest settlers in this township and for many years a beloved resident here, died at the home of a daughter at Hennessey, Oklahoma, on June 3, in her 66th year. Her husband, Thos. Donoho, preceded her to the other world some 25 years ago. Mrs. Donoho leaves three grown children, Mrs. John Tighe and Mrs. Edw. Gould, of Hennessey, Oklahoma, and Orlando S. Donoho, of this place. Mrs. Donoho came to Douglas township in 1854. She was born in the state of New York Oct. 17, 1827. At an early age she united with the church and remained a consistent member thereof until summoned from the church militant to the church triumphant. She will be greatly missed by her large circle of friends. The remains were brought here for burial. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Parsons. Mrs. Donoho's remains lie at rest among her loved ones in the old cemetery. (Red Oak Sun)
