100 YEARS ARE LIVED BY WOMAN WHO WAS BORN IN CLEARFIELD


Through the courtesy of Mrs. Dal Thompson of Spruce street, we are privileged to present to our readers a story
concerning the celebration on June 28, 1924, of the one hundredth birthday of Mrs. Hannah B. McMillin, of
Tekamah, near Craig, Nebraska, another descendant of one of the Clearfield county's pioneer families, which was
among Lawrence township's first settlers. Mrs. McMullin's mother is said to have been the first white female
child born in Clearfield county.

Mrs. McMullin was one of a family of 17 children. Her father was Matthew Ogden, son of Daniel, son of Daniel,
son of Richard, son of John Ogden, of Yorkshire, England.

Mrs. McMullin was born in Clearfield, June 28, 1824. In 1864, when 40 years of age, she was suffering from ill
health and moved to Nebraska. For 57 years she lived in Fontanelle vicinity where she was very active. For nine
years she has been unable to walk and has moved about in her chair. Her memory is better on far past events than
on present day affairs, which is usual with elderly people. Five generations including her only living son, A. O.
McMullin, her great grandchildren and great grandchildren and great great grandchildren were present on this
occasion. She has living 72 great grandchildren and four great great grandchildren. Three of her children and
four grandchildren have "passed on."
