Daughter of Joseph Glines Sr. and Mary Polly Hill, Wife of Joseph G. Douglas, Mother of George Washington, William Glines and Charles L. Douglas

Mrs. Hannah W. Douglas died at her home in this city last Sunday afternoon at the advanced age of eighty two years. The deceased was a native of Ohio, having been born at Marietta., September 14, 1813. She came to Wisconsin with her husband in April 1836, and has been a resident of Lafayette county ever since. Her husband started for California in 1850 and died of cholera in the summer of that year upon the plains.
She joined the Methodist church in 1830 and for sixty five years has been a consistent member of that society. She was a kind mother and a good neighbor, beloved by all who knew her.
She leaves three sons, Geo. W., Chas. T., and Wm. G. Douglas all of this city and one brother, Isaac W. Glines who resided near her., all of whom were present at her funeral which took place Tuesday morning, Rev. Merrifield officiating.
Her remains were interred in Evergreen cemetery and were followed to their last resting place by a large number of friends. By the death of Mrs. Douglas one more is added to the rapidly lengthening list of old settlers who have gone to the silent beyond.
