Rites For America Northup Baker Are To Be Held Sunday
Time is 2 P.M. At Wetherholt Funeral Home
Funeral services for America Northup Baker, who died Wednesday afternoon at 12:30 o’clock at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W. W. Sigler, 238 First Avenue, less than a month before her 89th birthday anniversary, will be held Sunday at 2 p.m. at the George J. Wetherholt and Sons funeral home.
The venerable widow of J. N. Baker, whom she married March 24, 1880, in the same Green Twp. house in which she was born February 7, 1857 was strictly “a homebody”, was intensely interested in her family, and made her home a model of hospitality for all friends and relatives who called on her. Her husband died in the autumn of 1938 at the age of 88 years.
Mrs. Baker spent all her life within a radius of one mile from her birthplace except for four years during which she and her husband lived in Hampton, Ia., and nearly three years just passed during which she resided with her daughter, Mrs. Garnet Sigler in Gallipolis. Infirmities of old age were the cause of her death, but she had been critically ill for about 10 days.
Daughter of Ansel and Lavenia McCall Northup decedent is survived by Mrs. Sigler, Wilbur A. Baker, Springfield, Ill., Mrs. Pearl Heil, Malta, O., Mrs. Bernice Anderson and Charles E. Baker, Jacksonville, Ill., and Mrs. Jessie Berridge, Royal Oak, Mich.; eight grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. Two sisters, who will be unable to attend the funeral, also survive: Mrs. F. C. Smith, Los Angeles, and Mrs. Mary Pickens Springfield. A daughter, Margaret, died in infancy.
Rev. Charles G. Baird, rector of the St. Peter’s Episcopal Church, will officiate at the funeral; burial will be made in Mound Hill cemetery. Pall bearers will be Harry Maddy, Stanley Lanier, Dr. L. C. Cowden, H. W. McHenry, Elmer Hatfield, and Lew Grube.
