Obituary
Unidentified Newsclipping - 1892
PARKER.--Harriet, relict of Charles Parker, and daughter of the late Robert Carter, was born in Chester County, Pa., May 5, 1806, and died at her home near Cecil Paper Mills, in Cecil County, Md., December 29, 1892. She leaves two sons and four daughters. Confined to her bed for more than a year previous to her decease, her suffering was borne with Christian resignation. She gave her heart to God and her name to the church of her youth, and was a consistent member of the Methodist Episcopal church for more than seventy years. How few there are now of the little band who composed the class at Cherry Hill, where our departed sister gave her name to the church. The funeral service was conducted at Cherry Hill by her pastor, Rev. T. B. Hunter, assisted by Brothers Thomas Frye and W. S. Miller, two friends of the deceased. We laid her body in Cherry Hill Cemetery, by the side of her husband, there to rest until the archangel's trumpet shall call the dead from their slumbers to meet the Lord in the resurrection morn.
