Leistra, Cora 1887-1898 of Rock Valley

DeVolksvriend of 12/8/1898 in Dutch
Translated:
Wednesday evening Coba Leistra died and Saterday buried, from the Ref. Church, led by Rev. Huizenga. The large crowd that had come, testified to the general sadness in the face of the death façade. With pre-established loyalty and dedication she stood to the aid during the illness of the late P. A. Huysman, until she herself was affected by the infection of the terrible disease. Now she has passed away, fallen already seeing the sacrifice of her kindness before others..

See the obit of Cora’ Mother Jane Mrs. Peter Leistra 1858-1935 which states she lost a daughter Cora at the age of 11 years.
