Mrs. Anna Whitlofer died Thursday, March 21, 1912, at the home of Mr and Mrs. Sanford Grant in this city. Death was due to pneumonia, of which she had suffered only a few days,
Anna Markley was born May 20, 1846, in Ontario, Canada, and was the daughter of Michael and Eliza Markley. In 187o she united in marriage with Nicholas Whitlofer. To them were born two daughters, both of whom survive: Mrs. Mary Samuelson of Decorah and Mrs. Emma Wilmot of Austin, Minn. Mr. Whitlofer died some years ago.
The deceased came to Winneshiek county in 1875, previously having lived in Howard county. She enjoyed a large acquaintance, especially among the older generation of residents south of town, where Mr. and Mrs. Whitlofer lived on a farm many years. All her acquaintances held her in the highest regard and knew her to be a woman of estimable character.
The funeral was held Sunday, Rev. Tippton of Ossian officiating, and burial was made at Centennial.— Decorah Journal.
