A Good Woman at Rest
The death of Mrs. Elizabeth Lusk, at San Francisco, Nov. 20th, 1903, was after a gradual and helpless decline in which her grand-daughter, Miss Retta Kennedy, was her good angel. She was a native of Connecticut, a daughter of the Revolution and was 91 years and 9 months of age. For many years following 1854, she resided with her family at Irish Creek and later on in this city, where her memory is cherished by many friends.
Many years ago the family removed to Sacramento and later on to San Francisco, where during their lives Mrs. Lusk had a choice of homes with her daughters, Mrs. A.I. Frost and Mrs. Andrew Kennedy, both of whom preceded her to Union Cemetery, where she now sleeps beside them. Four grand-children, Retta and Ruby Kennedy, of San Francisco, and John Frost and Mrs. Josie Harper, of Sacramento, survive the good old grand mother whose remains they accompanied to their last resting place. The funeral last Tuesday, at the Episcopal church, was conducted by Rev. C.L. Lindley and was attended by sincere and sympathizing friends.
The following gentlemen acted as pall bearers: H.S. Morey, Geo. W. McKee, John A Fisher, and J.C. O'Donnell.
Suggested edit: Emerett married first William Lum in 1834 at Torrington, Ct. They later moved to Michigan where William died in 1842. William was the son of John Lum (1780-1854) and Aphemia Kent (1783-1853) both of New Jersey. Contributed by member #47805396
