Last Friday morning, April 21, 1916, Mrs. Edna Wooldridge, who was the beloved wife of Mr. Frank Wooldridge, who lives one mile from Jamestown, crossed to the other side, after a long illness. The deceased was a devoted member of the Methodist Church and had been for many years. She was a lady of many noble traits of character, and was universally loved by all who knew her.

The deceased leaves besides her husband, three sons, to our knowledge, Asa and J.D. Wooldridge and Mr. W.S. Knight, who is the cashier of the Bank of Jamestown, the deceased having been twice married, and one daughter, Mrs. Wm. Hardwick. The funeral was largely attended and much sympathy was expressed for the surviving members of her family.

Edna first married Ebenezer C. Knight on Dec 5, 1858. She second married John Frank Wooldridge on Dec 20, 1866. Both of her husbands served in the 5th KY Cavalry Co. I during the Civil War. Ebenezer was killed in action.
