Obituary - Another Pioneer Gone

I will be seen by reference to another column of this issue that another pioneer has passed away. Mrs. Nancy Badger Stringham, who died at Holden, Millard County, Utah, April 1st, 1900, was the daughter of Fielding and Paulina Turner Garr and was born October 17th, 1822.

She was married to Rodney Badger March 9th, 1845 and followed her husband, who was one of the original pioneers to Utah arriving in Salt Lake City in September, 1847. Her husband was drowned in the Weber River while trying to save the lives of others, March 29th, 1853, leaving to her care four small children.

December 14th, 1858, she married Bryant Stringham by whom she was the mother of two daughters. Her posterity numbers six children, fifty-five grandchildren and seventeen great-grandchildren. She was a faithful wife, a kind mother and true Latter-day Saint.

Funeral services were held in the Holden meeting house at 10 o'clock a.m. April 4th and the remains were laid to rest in the Holden cemetery.
