Mrs. SARAH PENORAH HOWARD died yesterday at her home, end of E. Burlington St.
Daughter of John C. and Anna Bradshaw, born September 18 1856, three miles east of Fairfield. Spent entire life in Jefferson County. M.E. Church.
Married S.A. Howard October 24 1877. Five children: Mrs. Anna Haney at home; V.A. Howard of Chicago, Ill.; J.H. Howard of LeRoy, Kansas; Mrs. J.C.

JEFFERSON COUNTY MARRIAGE Record #4809 and JEFFERSON COUNTY RECORDS by Orville & Mary Prill."
