Mother Of Rochester Engineer Passes Away
Mrs. Morgan Gurdon Huntington, mother of John G. Huntington, consulting engineer for the Rochester Mines company, and high official of the Knights of Pythias of this state, died at Rochester this morning.
She was born at Canton, Ohio, on March 10, 1840, the daughter of John C. & Rosanna Bockius, and was one of a family of thirteen. Her death was hastened as the result of a fall in her bedroom last July, from the effects of which she never fully recovered.
