67 Years Old Obituary for Martha Keziah McAshan Norton Ammann:MRS. M. K. AMMANNThe death of Mrs. M. K. Ammann occurred at her home at Ammansville last Saturday evening. She had been in declining health for several months, and died of lingering disease after much suffering. She was an old resident of Fayette county, and there are many friends in that county and this to mourn her loss. A pure christian, she had declared for some time past that she was willing to go to the great beyond when her Maker called her. All that knew her knew that she was spotless. The writer did not know her as intimately as others in this vicinity; but he knows enough to be fully convinced that she possessed all the noble qualities and christian graces ascribed to her by those who knew her best. The children she leaves to miss her have all arrived at an age to do without a [mother's] care; but they will often drop a tear in fond recollections of their mother. To them and to the distressed husband and other relatives THE MERCURY extends deep sympathy. May the sod lie lightly upon her remains in the old family graveyard in the town of LaGrange. (Weimar Mercury, 25 Oct 1890, page 5) She was the daughter of Elizabeth Agee (Find A Grave Memorial# 76486466) and Nehemiah McAshan, Jr. Her first marriage on 12 Feb 1846 was to James Israel Norton, after his death she married Andreas Ammann on 24 November 1855.
