MRS. B. H. NEAL PIONEER CITIZEN OF THIS COUNTY, DEAD.
Leaves 7 Children, 48 Grand Children And 11 Great-Grandchildren
Mrs. B. H. Neal, wife of Dr. B. H. Neal, died at the family home in the northern
part of the county Tuesday night after a short illness and was buried in the
Lutheran Cemetery at Frelsburg Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock. The funeral
service was preached by Rev. J. T. Tracy, pastor of the local Methodist Church.
Mrs. Neal was born in Birmingham, England, on the 31st of March, 1828, making
her 92 years and 5 months old at the time of her death. She was married in
August of 1872 to Ben. H. Neal. In the year of 1856 Dr. Neal came to America in
search of an older brother who had fitted out a sailing vessel and started for
California around the Horn. When he arrived here it took a year to make the
search and his brother was never found. He then decided to remain in America and
sent for his wife. She arrived some time in the year of 1858 and they settled in
this country.
Dr. and Mrs. Neal were married 68 years and she was the mother of 12 children,
two sons and ten daughters. One son and four daughters are dead. She is survived
by one son, six daughters, 48 grand children and 11 great-grandchildren.
Dr. and Mrs. Neal and all of the children were raised in the Episcopal Church
and have been faithful members of the same throughout life. They became members
of St. John's Church of Columbus in 1865 and have been faithful members ever
since--fifty-five years of service to God in this community.
Mrs. Neal was never sick but one time before in her life. That was during the
civil war. While Dr. Neal was fighting in the Confederate army she had a severe
attack of typhoid fever.
Mrs. Neal was loved by every one who knew her and she was known throughout the
county. She and the doctor have a large circle of friends who mourn the loss of
a real friend.--Columbus Citizen.
Mrs. Neal was the mother of Mrs. W. F. Taylor of the Osage section, a lady well
and favorably known throughout Colorado county, and her death is deeply and
sincerely deplored by all. Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to the bereaved
relatives and friends.
