ELIZABETH DOERRER BOLLEY, died September 25, 1922
In Ashland county, Ohio, on September 3, 1836, a daughter, Elizabeth, was born to Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Doerrer. In 1859 she was united in marriage to Jacob Bolley. To this union were born eight children, three sons and five daughters.
Mrs. Bolley departed this life on September 24, 1922, at the home of her granddaughter, Mrs. Henry Misner, near Olive Lake. Her husband and three daughters preceded her to the spirit world. Three sons are living, Jacob, William and Albert, and two daughters, Mrs. Albert Case and Mrs. Daniel Ackermire. Three brothers Emanuel of Helmer and Frank and Edwin of Ashland, Ohio, twenty-eight grandchildren, thirty-three great-great-grandchildren and many friends and neighbors are left to mourn their loss.
In 1870 she came from Ohio with husband and family and settled on a farm in Milford township, LaGrange county, [Indiana] where they resided until the husband was disabled and compelled to retire from active life. After this, the rearing of the family was left to her and to her alone. No one knows what she suffered and endured through those lonely years, for uncomplainingly and yet smiling, she suffered through. She was unusually ambitious and active both in youth and in age and always ready to help those in need. Being a member of the German Lutheran church since early womanhood and a firm believer in her God, she left us without fear.
