Trawver, Rae Harrell

Rae Harrell Trawver
The kind, lovable and beautiful life of Mrs. Rae Harrell Trawver came to an end on earth Monday, January 26th, at 10:30 in the evening at her home in Omaha. Death was due to pneumonia. Her body was brought to Clarinda by her husband, Dr. Harry E. Trawver. Funeral services were held Wednesday from the Presbyterian church, officiated by Rev. W. C. Williamson. Interment was in the Clarinda cemetery.
Rae Harrell was born in this city August 1, 1891. All her life was spent in Clarinda with the exception of about a year, as about a year ago she moved to Omaha with her husband and young son Claire. She graduated from the Clarinda high school in 1909. September 19, 1915, she was united in marriage with Dr. Harry E. Trawver in this city. To this union was born one son Claire,  now about 3 years old.
Mrs. Trawver, with her parents, was united with the Presbyterian church of this city in 1916, and since that time she has remained a true consistent servant to her Master. During her residence here she was a member of the Wesminister Guild and of the Philathea Sunday school class of her church. It can be truthfully and unreservedly said of Mrs. Trawver that she was loved by every one who knew her. Her life fairly, radiated kindnes and love. She lived only 28 years but they were filled with a loving cheerful service to those around her. She met life's vicissitudes without a murmur or complaint. Mrs. Julia Harrell, grandmother of Mrs. Trawver, who made her home with Mr. and Mrs. Trawver, while living in Omaha, also answered the call of the Master last Friday, but it was so exemplary of Mrs. Trawver's life to serve her grandmother in her last earthly days. Mrs. Trawver leaves to mourn their loss her husband and little son Claire and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles L. Harrell of this city. As Mrs. Trawver's mother is an invalid and Mr. Harrel is confined to his bed with serious illness, neither of Mrs. Trawver's parents were able to attend the funeral of their lovable daughter. Nor was the husband, Dr. Trawver, who is very ill at the Dr. E. T. Farrens home. Dr. Trawver had a very high temperature when he brought the body of his dead wife to Clarinda from Omaha.

Trawver, Roy - S. H. Driesbach, a farmer residing near Clearmont, Mo., came up Tuesday to attend the funeral of Master Roy Trawver, who was drowned in the Nodaway river Sunday evening. The two families were old acquaintances at Paris, Ill. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, May 31, 1900

Trawver, Roy - The sad news was brought to this city about five o'clock p. m. Sunday, May 27, 1900, that Master Roy Trawver had been drowned in the Nodaway river, east of the city, about half a mile south of the bridge. A good many hastened to the scene but it was too late to resuscitate him, as nearly two hours had passed. He had been bathing in the river with his two brothers—Harry, aged 15 years, and Wilbur, aged 8 years, and being unable to swim he waded around in the water until striking a deep hole he went down. His brother Harry was on the opposite side at the time, and hastened to assist him, but when he came up he struggled with Harry and pulled him under several times when he released him and almost unconsciously gained the shore. He saw nothing more of Roy and hastened home to give the alarm. His body was found in about eight feet of water and taken out by Lewis Abbott. Roy was 12 years, 4 months and 2 days of age. It is a severe blow to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Trawver, who recently came here from Paris, Ill., and purchased the Fred Fisher farm, east of the fair grounds. They have the sympathy of all in their sad bereavement. The funeral took place from the residence at 3 p. m, Tuesday, conducted by Rev. IlgenFritz, and about forty carriages followed the remains to the city cemetery. PAGE COUNTY DEMOCRAT, Clarinda, Iowa, May 31, 1900

DROWNED WHILE BATHING .
Roy Trawver, a Twelve Year Old Boy, Loses His Life at the River
Last Sunday afternoon, while Roy Trawver, a son of Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Trawver, was bathing in the Nodaway river below the bridge east of town, he got beyond his depth and was drowned. His two brothers, Harry, aged fifteen, and Wilbur, aged eight, were with him at the time, but despite the efforts of the older boy, the awful tragedy occurred. All three boys had gone from their home, on the Knox Alexander place, which their father recently purchased, to the river, about four o'clock on Sunday afternoon. Harry could swim a little, and he cautioned the younger ones to keep in shallow water where he designated. He crossed the treacherous stream and was playing in a boat, while the little boys were wading on the other side. Harry was on his way back with the boat, when he heard a scream for help, and looked to see Roy struggling in the water. He swam to him with all the speed he had, and caught him just as he came up the last time. They both went down together, Roy in his drowning agony clutching his older brother for help. Harry says that is the last he remembered until he found himself out on the bank. He came near drowning himself, but got out in some way. He immediately got into the boat, crossed the river, and went to notify his parents of Roy's drowning. The parents and older brother came and found the body where it had gone down, in eight feet of water.
The whole community is shocked and saddened by the terrible tragedy, and the stricken family have the sympathy of all in their bereavement. Funeral services will be held from the home this afternoon at three o'clock, conducted by Rev. IlgenFritz, of the M. E. church, which Roy attended, and of the Sunday School of which he was a faithful member. CLARINDA HERALD, Clarinda, Iowa, May 29, 1900

Mrs Hattie Jane Goff Trisler - The Journal has been given the following obituary of Mrs. Hattie Jane Goff Trisler, wife of Fredrick Trisler, who died near Ellston Tuesday of last week and whose funeral was held last Thursday:
"Hattie Jane Goff, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Goff, was born in Clarke county, Iowa, Dec. 3, 1882, and died at her home near Ellston, Feb. 22, 1921, aged 38 years 2 months and 19 days.

She was married to Fredrick Trisler March 18, 1903.   To this union five children were born—four   of whom survive her.   She became a Christian when just a girl and united with the Methodist chruch at   Weldon, Iowa. Later, in 1909, when they moved to Ellston,. she transferred her membership to the Methodist church of that place of which she was a faithful member until the time of her death. Mrs. Trisler was an active Christian, always willing to do just a little more than her share for the Kingdom. Her home going will leave a gap in every department of the church work for she was faithful at the Sunday school, teaching her class as long as strength permitted.   She was a faithful worker in the Aid society and the Women's Missionary society and she will be sorely missed.   She was a fine womanly woman, a kind neighbor, a splendid mother who leaves to her children a wonderful legacy—the memory of a Christian mother.   She had not been well for several weeks and when the last hours approached they held no fear, because she was acquainted with Him who came for her.   He had been her company through the years, and it was only a stepping into the mists with a well beloved Friend.   She is gone. We shall miss her but her memory will remain a source of inspiration to those who are left.   She leaves to mourn their loss today, the husband, Fredrick Trisler; four children, Clarence, Francis, Zelma and Adeline; her parents, Mr. and Mrs. R. F. Goff of Clarinda; five brothers, two sisters and a host of friends." CLARINDA JOURNAL, Clarinda, Iowa, Mar 3, 1921

Don't worry about me." He was conscious during all his illness until the last hour of his life and made many requests to his immediate relatives.
