"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 82, No 4, p 126, Jan. 22, 1917.
In Alfred, N. Y., January 4, 1917, Mrs. Cornelia Susan Stukey, aged 68 years, 9 months, and 15 days.
Mrs. Stukey was the daughter of Deacon P. and Lucinda Scriven Williams and was a descendant of Roger Williams, seven generations removed. Many Seventh Day Baptists will recognize her as a sister of W. D. Williams who died about forty years ago just as he was entering on a most promising career in the Christian ministry. She was born in the town of Breman (in the vicinity of Watson), Lewis Co., N. Y. With the exception of six months of pioneer life in Nebraska, the first forty-eight years of her life were spent in the vicinity of her birth, and the last twenty years Alfred has been her home.
In 1866, she was united in marriage with Christopher Stukey and to them were born nine children, - Daniel C. Stukey, of Oxford, N. Y.; Mrs. Charles H. Palmer, Mrs. Henry C. Hunting, and Miss Arvilla E. Stukey, of Alfred; Professor Arthur E. Stukey , of Dodgeville, N. Y.; Mrs. Arthur H. Smith, and Mrs. O. H. Pinchin, of Wellsville, N. Y.; and two who died in early life. Mr. Stukey died twenty-five years ago. Besides the children Mrs. Stukey is survived by two brothers, Deacon J. B. Williams, of San Antonio, Tex., Henry G. Williams, of Boulder, Colo., and one sister, Mrs. Elizabeth Greene, of North Loup, Neb.
When about sixteen years of age she was baptized and joined the Seventh Day Baptist Church of Watson, N. Y., remaining a member of that church till she joined the church of like faith in Alfred upon making her home in that village. She had known the rigors of pioneer life, clouds of sorrow, and the burdens of rearing a large and fatherless family, but every trial had only drawn her nearer to her Savior and been the means of beautifying her character.
Funeral services, conducted by Pastor William L. Burdick, were held at her home in Alfred, Sabbath afternoon, January 6, and interment was in Alfred Rural Cemetery.
