A brief funeral service for Mrs. Bertha Rogers Jones was held at the grave in Oak Shade Tuesday afternoon, conducted by the Rev. E. T. Gough, of the Methodist church.
The deceased had succumbed to an operation at a Waverly hospital last Friday. Her home was on a farm near Nashua, and an earlier service had been held there in the Methodist church on Monday.
She was born in Marion Dec. 9, 1875, the daughter of Hiram and Myra Rogers, and was educated in the local schools. On Dec. 9, 1895, she was married here to Lewis Jones. After living here for a time, and later on farms in the Springville neighborhoods, they moved to the home near Nashua in 1910.
Mrs. Jones united with the Methodist church in her youth. She belonged to the Eastern Star and White Shrine in Charles City. Her husband survives.
