Obituary – Caroline Harmon, daughter of Alpheus and Huldah Harmon, was born in Erie County, Pennsylvania, May 27, 1823. She moved with her parents when quite young to Illinois. She was married to William A. Lincoln near La Harpe, Hancock County, Illinois, May 23, 1850. They resided at the above named place until 1882 when they moved to their farm, 4 miles west of Hopkins, Nodaway County, Mo., where she died August 22, 1897. She leaves a husband and five children, two children having died in infancy. Those living are Charles W., Elisabeth J., Henry M., Heman C., and Mrs. Alfaretta Alexander, all residents of Nodaway County. She was a faithful and affectionate wife, a kind and solicitous mother. She was modest and retiring in her manner, but firm in her convictions of right and wrong. She was religiously inclined from early girlhood, and united with the Christian church in 1865 of which she has since been a faithful member. Though a great sufferer for many months, she was very patient through it all.
Funeral services were held at the Christian church in Hopkins, May 23 [August 23], conducted by Elder Jesse Kenan, assisted by Elder Conner. She was laid to rest in the Hopkins cemetery.
