Eliza J. Culler was born in Connellsville, Pa., Jan. 1, 1837, where she passed a happy childhood.

Of this union eleven children were born, seven girls and four boys, of whom nine children survive the parents, namely, Miss Ella Stauffer, Mrs. H. L. Gard, Mrs. B. O. Klapp, Mrs. John T. Bartley, Mrs. N. W. Price, Chris, John, Harry and George Stauffer.
Mr. and Mrs. Stauffer came to Kansas in 1867 and settled first in Nemaha County, and located near Fostoria in 1889, where they lived happily in the enjoyment of many friends. Mr. Stauffer died in Manhattan eleven year ago. The funeral services were conducted by Rey Klutz of the Olsburg Methodist church, and Rev. Shaw of the Fostoria U. B. church last Sunday afternoon, April 3, at the C. C. Stauffer home, where a large number of neighbors and old friends gathered to express sympathy and comfort the bereaved members of the family.
