MISS ADA CROSS, COUNTY PIONEER, TAKEN by DEATH
Resident Since 1866 Passes Away at Home of Sister, Mrs. Annie Hay-Funeral Friday Afternoon
Miss Ada J. Cross a resident of Martin County for 70 years, died at 11 p.m. yesterday at the home of her sister, Mrs. Annie F. Hay, 117 Tilden Street. While in poor health for some time, she did not become seriously ill until New Year’s Day, when she came down with a hard cold. Death was the result of old age. She would have been 79 years old Jan. 16.
Miss Cross was born in Dane County, Wisconsin, in 1858, and came to Martin County with her parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. William Cross, in 1866. The family settled in the Rose Lake neighborhood and farmed there until about 20 years ago, when they moved to Fairmont. Miss Cross lived here with her parents until the death of her father, when she and Mrs. Cross went to live with Mr. and Mrs. William Hay. Mrs. Cross died about seven years ago.
Miss Cross is survived by her sister, Mrs. Hay, and two brothers, R.W. Cross of this city and George H. Cross, residing in Montana. Funeral services will take place Friday at 2 p.m. at the Jones-Olson funeral home, with Rev. H.B. Whitehead officiating. Miss Cross, a member of the Covered Wagon club and one of the county's true pioneers, lived a useful and blameless life. Her passing will be mourned by friends of the well-known family throughout this territory.
