Mrs. Sally Ann Storm, widow of Adam Storm, died Wednesday morning at 2:00 o'clock at the home of a daughter, Mrs. Albert Ferguson, near Kingman. Mrs. Storm would have been 85 years old next July. She was a daughter of Samuel Rankin, coming to this county from Tennessee with her parents when she was a small child. Mr. Rankin was one of the pioneers of this section and several years he ran a mill in Windsor. In young womanhood Miss Rankin plighted her troth to Greenberry Storm, who was the first person to be buried in Ash Grove cemetery. A few years after his death she married Adam Storm and for many years the couple trod life's pathway together. Mr. Storm died 16 years ago, since which time Mrs. Storm made her home with her children, who are, besides Mrs. Ferguson, as follows: Samuel of Mattoon, Miles of Shelbyville, Greenberry of Missouri, Curry of Colorado, Henry of Wisconsin, Mrs. J. D. Clem of Ash Grove, David, Charles and Mrs. Etta Patterson of Brownstown. Mrs. Storm was one of five sisters who married men named Storm. Three of these husbands were brothers, and the other two were cousins of the three. She is also survived by three sisters, Mrs. Henderson Storm of Sigel, Mrs. J. C. Storm of Stewardson, and Mrs. Frazer, of St. Louis. One sister died at the age of 80 about six weeks ago. Early in life Mrs. Storm became a member of Lower Ash Grove church of Christ and lived and died in full confidence. Funeral and burial services will be held Friday afternoon at 2:00 o'clock at Ash Grove Christian Church. Windsor Gazette - Thursday- 24 Apr 1913
