Mrs. H. Timberlake Dies Saturday P. M.
Mrs. Harry Timberlake, 67, wife of County Supervisor Harry Timberlake, died suddenly while enroute to Bedford Saturday afternoon [October 10th]. With her at the time of her death were her husband, her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Verne Timberlake, and a granddaughter, Gretchen Timberlake. Death occurred near the Eura Bradley farm home, about two miles from her own home.
The funeral services were held at the home in Mason Township, Monday afternoon, Oct. 12, conducted by Rev. C. W. Proctor of College Springs and assisted by Rev. W. H. Warrior of Blockton, both former pastors of the deceased. Burial was in the Graceland cemetery, the Rebekah lodge of New Market conducting the service at the grave. The large crowd of relatives and friends at the last rites was a tribute to a life well and honorably lived. Relatives served as pallbearers.
Cynthia Dugan, daughter of George and Happylona Dugan, was born near Toulon, Stark County, Ill., August 14, 1869.
Early in life she moved with her family from her native state and settled on a farm in Washington Township where she grew to womanhood. Her education was received in the public schools of this county and was culminated by a period of teaching.
She was married to Harry P. [ierce] Timberlake, March 19, 1890 and to this union were born three children, one of whom, Bruce Carlton, died in infancy. She is survived by her husband, Harry P. [ierce] Timberlake and two children, Grace C. Richey of Des Moines, and Verne Timberlake of this locality; also three grand daughters, Kathleen and Patricia Richey, and Gretchen Timberlake; three sisters, Mrs. Mary Holmes of Lang, Sask., Canada; Mrs. Grace Miller of Conway; and Miss Theo Dugan of Denver, Colo. One sister, Alice O'Dell, died in 1906 and a brother, Thos. Dugan in 1928; four brothers and one sister in infancy. She also leaves numerous nephews, nieces and a host of friends.
At an early age, she united with the Methodist Episcopal church and all through her youth and early married life was affiliated with the Gilead church. In later years she became a member of the M. E. church of New Market.
Mrs. Timberlake was also a member of the Rebekah lodge and Circle of New Market.
She was essentially a home woman desiring to perform no greater service than ministering to her family and friends. A good woman, a kind neighbor, a noble wife and mother, has passed on.
