America J. Martin, daughter of Daniel and Margaret Kalley, was born May 30, 1851, and departed this life September 20, 1906, at the age of 55 years, 3 months, and 20 days. She was married to George W. Martin, November 4, 1869, and to this union was born eleven children, seven of whom survive her, four preceding her to that better world many years ago. She united with the United Brethren church at Farmers' Chapel at 16 years of age, was converted and baptized. She lived a devoted Christian life until the Master called her to that better land. Although an invalid and great sufferer for many months, she bore it with patience, always believing that Christ doeth all things for the best. She was a devoted wife, a kind and loving mother, and a good neighbor, always doing good wherever she went. She leaves an aged father, husband, seven children, three grandchildren, and a host of relatives and friends to mourn their loss, but their loss is her eternal gain, for she has gone to dwell in that blessed land where troubles and sorrows are unknown. Funeral services were conducted at Farmers' Chapel, September 22, by Rev. J. M. McHargue, of Kingman, and she was laid to rest in Martin cemetery to await resurrection morn. - Rockville Tribune - October 3, 1906, Page 1
