Per obituary notice: She lived in Harrisburg until about 8 years ago, when she married R.R. Ridenhower, a farmer living near Vienna. She was a member of the Eastern Star and had been for many years, having joined while she lived in this city and was a member of the Methodist church and Sunday School, also a member of the Women's Club of Vienna, taking an active interest as long as her health would permit in all things that pertained to public welfare, and her own kindness endeared her to relatives and friends. When in Harrisburg she taught music and many of the young matrons of this city received their first musical training from her. Since she moved away from Harrisburg the association was recalled by teacher and pupil very pleasantly and news of her death was regretfully received among this group of friends.
Besides the three sisters living in this city, she leaves three more sisters, Mrs. Nora Ledbetter of Elizabethtown, Mrs. T.R. Pearce of Chillicothe, Ohio, Mrs. Harry Rightmyer of Chicago and one brother, Dr. J.H. Cannon of Chicago.
