Obituary - Mrs. Emaline J. Allison
Died - At her home in Sioux City, Wednesday, Dec. 16, 1896, from
injuries received in a fall, Mrs. Emaline J. Allison, aged 65
years, 1 mo. and 22 days.
The worthy woman whose death is recorded above, leaves a great
many very sincere mourners in this place, where she spent many of
the best years of her life.
Emmaline Allison, daughter of Samuel and Mary Harris, was born in
Licking county, Ohio, October 24, 1831. On March 2, 1852, she was
married to Samuel Allison, and soon after moved with her husband
to Iowa, locating in Delaware county, where they resided until
1881, when they removed to Sac county, locating on a farm
northwest of Schaller. At the age of 18 she became converted and
united with the Christian church, and after coming to Sac county
joined the same church here and was still a member at the time of
her death. There were ten children in the family - five boys and
five girls - eight of whom survive both father and mother. Brief
funeral services were held at the home in Sioux City by Rev.
Bowers, and the remains brought to Schaller where services were
held at the Christian chapel Friday, conducted by Rev. W. E.
Jones, after which the body was interred beside that of her
husband who had preceded her to the other world some eight years.
Long and lovingly will she be remembered by those upon whom the
influence of her christian life can never be lost.
