***Married William M. Saxon in Fayette County, IN, in 1817.

***Died - At Yorktown, Delaware County, Indiana on the 2nd instant, of pulmonary disease, Nancy Saxon, wife of William Saxon, formerly from near Connersville, of the age of 45 years. She has left a large family of children to mourn her loss. To her relatives and friends who were witnesses to her last hours of life, it certainly was a consolation to know that she in her last days had lived, and when life was extinct, gone to the world of departed spirits, there to worship around the exalted throne of Eternity. Good God! What a consolation. About one year before her death she connected herself with the Church, since which time, up to her death, she has proved herself a most exemplary Christian. The scenes around her dying bed were enough to convince the infidel of the absurdity of his philosophy, and the skeptic that there is reality in religion. H.M.S., Muncietown, (Indiana) Telegraph, March 15, 1841.
