Susan P. Shoff Beyer was born August 4, 1839 in Chesterfield county, Penn., and died in Atchison county, Kansas, May 5, 1921, in the 82nd year of her life. Susan Shoff and Asa Beyer were happily united in marriage June 14, 1860. He died 22 years ago. Ten of her eleven children, four sons and 5 daughter, 3 brothers, one sister and large number of other relatives survive to grieve her going.
She came with her family to Kansas in 1668 and settled on the farm in Atchison county where she had since lived and she died. The splendid qualities of womanhood entitle her to the esteem in which she has ever been held in the community in which she spent more than 50 years of her useful and beautiful life. Her social qualities enriched by a quiet Christian spirit, made her a favorite with neighbors and friends, praised by her husband, blessed by her children, trusted by her neighbors, she merited the place she attained and retained among them. She was a home builder and a home keeper. Here she ruled in love. If you would see her work, look about you and note the orderly arrangements of home affairs; if you would see the fruits of her life, observe the character of her children, whom she has left as a legacy to this generation. She was true to every relation of life . . .
The secret of her strength and the beauty of her character is found in the fact that to her natural ability she added the Christian graces by accepting Christ as her personal Savior confessing Him before mens and uniting with the Presbyterian church very early in life, for more than 30 years was a member of the Methodist church at Arrington, Kan. In this communion she left us, and we grieve at her going, but we sorrow not as others without hope, for we deliver that Christ died and rose again and those who sleep in Him will God bring with him. Peace to her memory. See 1st Thess. 4: to 18.
