Amenia Times, Saturday, January 8, 1910
Obituary, Mrs. Henry W. Peters.
As stated in our last issue, the body
of Mrs. Peters, wife of the late Henry
W. Peters, was last Saturday brought
here for burial from Po'keepsie, where
she died on Dec. 30th last.
Mrs. Peters was a native and for
nearly 70 years a resident of this town,
from whence she went to Po'keepsie in
the spring of 1866, where she has since
lived. Her death was caused by the
natural decay attendant upon old age,
she being, with one exception, probably
the oldest native of this town.
Mrs. Peters was a daughter of Alfred
Flint and a granddaughter of Jabez
Flint, a soldier of the Revolution, who
came from Windham, Conn., to Amenia
about 1785 and settled on the hill
called after him, where his descendants
still remain.
For many years Mrs. Peters was a
part of the social life of this village and
its environs, as it existed in the middle
of the last century the members of
which are now all gone, and of which
she was probably the last representative.
