CYNTHIA ANN THOMSON
Cynthia Ann, fourth daughter of William H. and Nancy A. Bard, was born in Bristol, Trumbull county, Ohio, April 3, 1847. She came with her parents to Madison county, Iowa, in April 1856, who settled on the place now the home of Sam Spence, six miles west and two north of Winterset, in Douglas township. The stone house, which her father built and which still stands, was her home until her wedding day.
She attended high school in Winterset, after which she taught school for several years in Madison and Adair counties. She was married to Hugh Thomson, Sept. 14, 1871 and departed this life March 10, 1914, aged 66 years, 11 months and 7 days.
To them were born six children, Hugh, who preceded his mother to the better land by nearly five years, having a wife and three little girls. Wm. M., wife and two sons of Gordon, Nebr., Mrs. Nannie B. Surratt and husband and baby daughter of Aberdeen, S.D., Leonard S., Bessie A., who so tenderly and lovingly cared for her mother during her long illness, and Ray B., who are at home.
Mrs. Thomson, early in life, surrendered her heart to the Savior and joined the Stringtown class of the M. E. church, now known as West Star. After her marriage she transferred her membership to the U. P. congregation, now the Pitzer church, of which her husband was a member, and has been for many years, a ruling elder.
She was taken with grip three years ago in January, suffered a relapse in March and was stricken with paralysis a month later. She partially recovered during the summer, but has been very ill at times since, growing gradually weaker until the end came after an attack of near pneumonia. Mrs. Thomson was a loving wife, a devoted mother, a faithful friend, an exemplary christian, a patient sufferer. During her long illness there was no stint in loving ministry of her family, who seemed to anticipate her every want.
