Daughter of Samuel Vinton Clark and Elizabeth T. Dickey
Married to Charles Abraham Gillingham on Sep. 29, 1897 in Gallia County, Ohio.
OBITUARY
Mrs. Gillingham Dies Suddenly At Sister's Bedside
Beloved Member of Distinguished Clark Family
Mrs. Cora Gillingham, one of the county's most estimable and beloved women, living just beyond Thivener on Route 218, died suddenly at 6:30 last evening while visiting her sister, Mrs. Al Cottrell, a short distance this side of Thivener. Death was ascribed to a heart attack.
Mrs. Cottrell, long a sufferer from a heart ailment, has been in a critical condition for weeks -a circumstance that adds poignancy to the passing of Mrs. Gillingham. Mrs. Gillingham was 70 years old. She had been quite well, although subject at infrequent intervals to heart weakness, and she was always so jolly and pleasant and found a great measure of joy and contentment in the companionship of relatives and neighbors and other friends.
Decedent is survived by these children: Marie, wife of Captain John F. Berridge, lower river road; Mrs. Helen Hughes at parental home; Miss Grace Gillingham, employed at Washington, D. C., but home for some time for a rest; Haffelt Gillingham, a Seabee in Hawaii, and Clark, who is with the U. S. Army in the Mediterranean theater.
Also surviving are three brothers and a sister besides Mrs. Cottrell. They are Edward Milton Clark, Phoenix, Arizona; Curt Clark, Carlinville, Ill; Arthur, living in Chicago, and Mrs. Elmer Gillingham, Columbus.
Edward M. Clark, retired, is a former vice president of the Standard Oil Company, the world's largest oil company, and he has been often mentioned in these columns as having achieved the greatest distinction in business affairs of any son of old Gallia.
The Clark brothers and sisters were children of Samuel Vinton Clark and Elizabeth Dickey Clark and they were born at Swan Creek. Samuel V. was famous in his day as a teacher, having taken up that calling when but 15 and his career ended after he had taught 149 terms of varying lengths. There is some relationship between these Clark and Lt. General Mark Clark, now commanding the Fifth Army in Italy.
Gillingham Rites
Funeral services for Mrs. Cora Gillingham will be held at 23 o'clock Friday at Elizabeth Chapel, with Rev. Edgar Ewing of Mt. Sterling in charge. Interment will be made in Mound Hill Cemetery by George J. Wetherholt & Sons.
Married to Charles Abraham Gillingham on Sep. 29, 1897 in Gallia County, Ohio.
