October 22, 1886
Clinton Public
Mrs. Catherine ELLINGTON, one of the oldest inhabitants of Central Illinois, died at the home of her son, Daniel ELLINGTON, east of Waynesville, last Tuesday morning. Mrs. Ellington would have been eighty-three years old had she lived a few days longer. She came to Illinois about 1830, when this country was a wilderness, and settled at Three Mile Grove, near Bloomington. She withstood the full share of her hardships which were the common lot of all early settlers. She and her husband, who died two years ago, lived a long and happy married life, having lived on the old homestead, now occupied by their son Daniel, for forty-five years. Mrs. Ellington was the mother of thirteen children, of which five are now living: Michael, Daniel, Isaac, and Mrs. Elias BROCK, of this vicinity, and David, who is in Kansas. She had been sick about two years.
Note: Catherine Hougham married David E. Ellington July 21, 1822.
