Funeral services were held at the Associated church at 2 o'clock Sunday afternoon with Rev. Noel Orcutt, the pastor, in charge. Interment was in Grace Hill cemetery.
Mary Maggie Haefner, daughter of John and Dorothea Haefner, was born April 17, 1861, in Lee county near Mendota, Ill. As a young girl, she came to Odebolt and there she met John Haines, to whom she was married, 63 years ago.
During the pioneer days in Hawarden, Mrs. Haines worked hard to raise her family while her husband was engaged in carpenter work. She was the mother of nine children, five of whom preceded her in death. Mr. Haines died April 22, 1919. One son, William, left home in 1909 and has not been heard from since that day.
Survivors are three children, Mrs. Russell Younie and Que Haines of Hawarden, and Lewis Haines of Sioux City, and one half-brother, Ed Haefner of Amboy, Ill. There are 13 grandchildren and two great grandchildren. She was very proud of the fact that four of her grandsons and two grandsons by marriage were in the armed forces. A number of nieces and nephews also survive.
Mrs. Haines joined the Congregational church with her husband in 1895 and was a charger member of the Ladies Aid. She was a loyal member of these organizations when her health permitted. It was well known that her primary life interests were her church, home and friends.
Mrs. Haines continued to live in her own home until a couple of years ago when due to failing health she gave up her home to live with her daughter, Mrs. Russell Younie and family.
Out of town relatives and friends who came to attend the funeral were Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Haines and sons, Lieut. Williams and James Haines and Mr. and Mrs. Fred Fogel of Sioux City, Mr. and Mrs. Adam Roeder and Louis Haefner of Arthur, Iowa, and Mr. and Mrs. Leo Tangeman of Akron.
