Funeral services for Mrs. Louisa BRUGH, 92, one of the oldest women in Fulton county, were held Sunday afternoon at the Methodist church in Leiters Ford, Rev. ROUSCH in charge. Burial in the nearby Leiters cemetery.
Mrs. Brugh died Thursday evening at the home of her son, Wilson, with whom she had lived for a number of years. Some time ago, she broke her hip in a fall and had since gradually failed. For 51 years she had made her home in Aubbeenaubbee township, Fulton county. Her husband, William BRUGH, who was just six months her senior, died about 18 years ago.
Louisa KLINK was born in Pennsylvania, in the year 1827 and moved soon afterward to Ohio, later coming to Steuben county, Indiana, and in 1863 moving to the locality where she resided the rest of her days, and where she was well and favorably known.
There survive five sons, Wilson [BRUGH], at home; Charles [BRUGH], of Charlotte, Mich.; Joe [BRUGH], of near St. Joe, Mich.; Lafe [BRUGH], of Jackson, Mich., and Eli [BRUGH], of Grand Rapids, and three daughters, Mrs. John GINTHER, Mrs. Caroline SALES and Mrs. Ida CORBETT, all of near Leiters.
Among those from a distance at the funeral were the two sons, Chas. and Levi, and Mrs. Elizabeth BRUGH, daughter-in-law of the latter, and her daughter, Maxine [BRUGH]. Her husband was killed about a year ago in a rail accident.
