Mrs. Barmore’s ancestry dates back to the Pilgrim Fathers. She was a descendent of Thomas Wright of Dedham, Mass., who left England in 1635 on account of religious persecutions. She was a consistent Christian from childhood and was a member of the M.E. Church for over forty years.

The funeral service was held Sunday afternoon at the Am. M. E. church, Revs. A. A Marcy and J. D. Mason conducting the services after which the remains were laid to rest in Oakwood cemetery.
