She was a daughter of George and Eliza A. BURCH. There were nine children besides her, but only three brothers survive her. They are [Levi Preston] BURCH, Bedford, Iowa, and [Ross W. BURCH] and [Joseph] M. BURCH, of Bloomington.
She was married to John BROSMAN June 7, 1874. To them five children were born. One [Charles W.] died in infancy. The four surviving children are: Alva, Albert and Ezra BROSMAN and Mrs. Cyntha SHIELDS.
There are fourteen surviving grandchildren.
For eight years she had suffered with cancer, and although suffering greatly she was sustained by patience and fortitude.
She united with the Protestant Methodist church in early girlhood, and lived a continuous upright Christian life, respected by all who knew her. She was perfectly resigned to go home, and expressed full confidence in rest and happiness in the life beyond.
The funeral was conducted from Allen Chapel Church by Elder J. A. SPENCER, last Friday at 1 o'clock and the body was interred at Union Bethel Cemetery.
