Mrs. Mary A. Christian died at her home, Wednesday morning, May 25, 1921, after several weeks illness. Mary Ann Tate was born near Monticello, Wayne County, Kentucky, January 13, 1828, and came to Missouri with her parents when 11 years of age. They settled on the homestead northwest of Tarkio in 1851 and this was her home for 70 years.
On February 5th, 1857, she was united in holy wedlock with James C. H. Christian, who was laid away twenty-one years ago. Mrs. Christian was well known throughout the community as a kind and hospitable neighbor; and many will feel her loss keenly. She was a member of the Presbyterian Church of Tarkio.
The deseased leaves five children, Columbus A. of Kansas City, Cread F. of Newman's Grove, Nebraska, Margaret M. and Thomas T. of Tarkio, and Jesse E. of Pine River, Minn., fourteen grandchildren, and twenty-seven great grandchildren. She is survived by one brother, C. L. Tate of Hulett, Wyoming and one sister, Margaret T. Davenport of Tarkio. All of Mrs. Christian's children except for Cread F. of Newman's Grove, Nebr., were present at the funeral. He was unable to come because of sickness in the family.
The funeral services were held at the home and interment took place in the Tarkio Cemetary. The services were conducted by Rev. Halsey of the Presbyterian Church.
