The deceased was the youngest child of the late Justus and Margaret Moulton Wilcox and was born in the town of Floyd June 30, 1827. She was the last survivor of a family of 11 children.
March 17, 1856, she was married to the late Sylvester B. Atwood and they began housekeeping in the residence portion of the Utica-Black River Railroad station at Stittville where he was station agent and there they resided for two years. After that time Mr. Atwood worked at his trade as carpenter and builder and later they moved into their new home on Main street where they continued to reside until death. He died February 5, 1903.
She was a woman of domestic qualities, who loved her home and found her pleasure in household duties, rather than in society.
Besides a son, Willard T. Atwood of Stittville, there are surviving two nieces in Utica, Mrs. Ingham Townsend and Mrs. George Oscela, a niece, Mrs. Daniel Martin, Cleveland, O., and a niece, Mrs. Charlotte Conover, Stittville.
The funeral services will be held at her late residence Tuesday. Rev. George Dermott of Ava officiating. Utica Daily Press, April 24, 1905
