County Pioneer is Taken to Reward
Death came to Mrs. Adda Lamberty last Friday evening, May 14, after she had been bedfast for some time suffering from a stroke. Mrs. Lamberty was one of the real pioneers of Garden county, and had reached the advanced age of 76 years at the time of her passing.
She and her husband, John N. Lamberty, came to this part of the state in 1889 and first took a homestead on Blue Creek but later that same year located on the Hutchinson table about 11 miles northeast of Oshkosh and she still retains the ownership of this land.
After her husband died in 1906 she continued to live on the farm until 1910 when she moved into Oshkosh and has made her home here since that time. Her homestead experience was generally the same as that of others of the old hardy pioneers, and she gained for herself the respect and esteem of her neighbors and friends during the trying times of early days through which they passed.
Mrs. Lamberty leaves an adopted son, Clarence; two sisters, Mrs. Mary Hayden of Dillon, Mont., Mrs. Ida Snell of Oshkosh; two brothers, A. W. and D. A. Kingery, both of Oshkosh; and several nieces and nephews, besides numerous friends and neighbors, all of whom are grieved because of her death.
Funeral services were held from the St. Mark's Lutheran church in this city Sunday afternoon, with Rev. Flora delivering the sermon. Burial was in the family plot in Antelope Valley cemetery.
