Catherine was the daughter of John Maxwell and Kate O'Malury. She married James Sammin on Nov 18, 1872 at Clinton, MA. They were the parents of John, James, William, Mary, Frances, Honora, Joseph, Nellie, Nettie, and Eugene.


Sept 23, 1915 - Palo Alto Reporter - Thursday morning of last week occurred the death of Mrs. James Sammin. Mrs. Sammin had been ailing for some time yet it was not thought that the end was so near and her death came almost as a shock on the family and community.

The funeral was held Saturday morning from Assumption church and was conducted by Very Rev. P.F. Parrelly. The interment was made in St. John cemetery. The pall bearers were all old residents of this city and had known the deceased for a good many years. They were J.C. Bennett, Thomas O'Conor, J.P. Downs, Peter O'Brein, M.F. Coonan, and John Dooley.

The maiden name of the deceased, was Catherine Maxwell and she was born in the county Mayo, Ireland and grew to young womanhood in her native parish. When 18 years of age she came to this country and located in Rochester, New York. In November 1872 she was united in marriage to James Sammin and a little time after this thet moved to Scranton, Penn. and after residing there for a few years they moved to Palo Alto county and Emmetsburg has been their home ever since.

Mrs. Sammin is survived by her husband, James Sammin and by two sons, William of Onawa; Joseph of Rockwell City, and three daughters: Mrs, D.E. Brodigan of Battle Creek, Iowa; and Miss Nettie Sammin of this city.

Three sons John, Eugene, and Frank passed on before their mother.

Mrs. Sammin was one of the quiet home like women of this city. Those who came in contact with her learned to respect and love her for the true worth of her character. She was a consistent and devoted member of the Catholic church of this city and was zealous in her attendance on the means of grace. Her life was devoted to the interest of her home and family and here she will be sadly missed. The husband and family certainly have the sympathy of all in their sorrow.
