Hemstock Funeral Service Wednesday Afternoon

Funeral services for Mr. Thomas J. Hemstock, 43, who died at her home south of town early Monday will be held Wednesday at 2:30 p.m. at the Methodist Episcopal church in charge of Dr. C.D. Loose, after which the body will be laid to rest in the Nevada cemetery.

There will be a brief prayer service at the home of her father George G. Robison, 836 Lincoln avenue where the body will be taken this afternoon. This prayer service will be held at 2:00 p.m. previous to the funeral service at the church.

Mrs. Hemstock, whose maiden name was Georgiana Robison, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George A. Robison, was born on the homestead six miles south of Nevada, March 13, 1895. The family moved to Nevada when she was a child of five years and here he attended the local schools and graduated with the class of 1914.

That same year the family moved to Charles City where they made their home until 1928, when they returned to Nevada and here her home has been since.

She was united in marriage to Thomas J. Hemstock, on October 12, 1933, and they have since made their home upon a farm just north of Nevada. Two children were born to them, a baby boy who died in infancy and Judith Alice, twenty months old daughter, who with the husband survives her.

The mother preceded her in death about three years but she leaves, besides the husband and baby daughter, her father George G. Robison and two sisters, Mrs. Claudia Bronson in Council Bluffs and Mrs. O. A. Cerwinske of Charles City.

Mrs. Hemstock, a daughter of one of the oldest and most highly respected families of the community, has a wide circle of friends in and around Nevada, who will join the husband and other relatives mourning her death.
