Wife of William O Denman, married 1/26/1875
---------------------------------------
Mrs. Zippora Denman wife of Dr. W. O. Denman died at the family residence Wednesday morning, February 7th, 1894, aged about 40 years after a short illness.

Mrs. Denman was a daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Stevens of Yale where she lived many years and where her marriage with Dr. W. O. Denman took place nineteen years ago. In every relation of life as daughter, sister, wife, mother and friend she was an example to all women. She had been weighed in all these trying positions and had not been found wanting and the genuine tears of sorrow that have been shed over her lifeless body are a tribute to the worth of one that had been known and loved by all who had been associated with her in the twelve years that the family have lived in Greenup.

The deceased leaves a husband and five daughters, an aged father and mother, one sister, one brother and a number of nephews and nieces who mourn their irreparable loss.

Rev. E. S. Borton conducted a short funeral service at the residence Thursday morning after which the remains were taken to the family burying ground thirteen miles south of Greenup and laid beside three little children who had preceded the mother to the ''better land"— Greenup Press
