children Mary Jane, John Thomas, William Henry, and Elizabeth Ingram

Jane Uren Wartnaby exchanged earth for Heaven at her home in White Oak Springs, Wisconsin April 10, 1890. Born in Cornwall April 5, 1830, she joined her husband Thomas Ingram in America in 1842 and with him settled in Jo Daviess County, Illinois. Mr Ingram died while on his way to California. Mrs Ingram became in 1851 the wife of Edward Shaw Wartnaby. Several children were born of each marriage. Of these eight are living, vis: Mrs Frank [Mary Jane Ingram] Keenan of Scales Mound IL; John Thomas Ingram and William Henry Ingram of Montana; Mrs L (Elizabeth) Hinderman of Chicago; Mrs John (Matilda) Waters of Grand Island Nebraska; John Shaw Wartnaby, Mrs William (Ada) Laity, and Mrs George (Minnie) Walton near White Oak Springs, Wisconsin.
From childhood Sister Wartnaby delighted in religious services. Her father was a class leader of the Wesleyan church. With him from an early age she went regularly to class and other meetings. At 11 years of age, she was clearly and joyfully converted. During her last illness, referring to this experience she said: "My Savior was as precious to me then when but a little girl as now." She formed then the habit of frequent, confident prevailing prayer. To ask and receive became a marked characteristic of her religious life. She lived singularly aloof from the pleasures and allurements of earth, her "conversation being to Heaven", her soul enraptured by communion with an unseen Savior. Her home in Old Veta Grande was the first place opened for preaching in the then wicked mining camp. Here also class and prayer meetings were held. In White Oak Springs also she joined zealously in the first efforts to secure preaching, labored mightily in subsequent revivals, rejoiced greatly in Zion's victories, and in darkest hours of personal trial or spiritual decline in the community, continued to fervent prayer. So long as health permitted, at any sacrifice, she made her way to sanctuary. When no longer able to attend she spent most of the hour in prayer for those assembled. Her home life was put in a sentence by one not her own: "she was always so good." Five days beyond three score our sister secured her crown. Prayer, praise, songs and shouts of holy ecstasy, her soul full of glory and of God she ascended in clouds of glory. Husband and children "are on the way," pledged to meet her in Heaven.
A vast throng gathered for the funeral April 13th. In great sorrow, yet glorious hope with tenderest affection in Christian triumph and gratitude, appropriate impressive services were held, the remains being interred in Scales Mound cemetery. - source: obit in Galena Illinois Gazette; found tucked in Laity family Bible.
