Member of a Pioneer Family of Monroe - Funeral Friday at 12 Noon.
__
Another of the aged descendants of a Western Reserve pioneer family has gone from this world.

Mrs. Cordelia Benson, relict of Julius Benson, deceased, is dead at the family home at Monroe Center after a general breakdown and illness which had confined her to her home throughout the winter. She was 79 years of age.

Mrs. Benson was the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Park Davis, who came to this section in the early pioneer days and settled in Pierpont. That township was the family home. The Bensons made their home in Monroe fifty-six years ago and there the family home has been throughout these long years. Julius Benson died twenty-six years ago.

Three sons survive to perpetuate a name always honored in the community. They are Albert D., J. C. and E. K. The former lives in Denmark and the others live in Monroe.

The funeral will be held from the late home on Friday at twelve o'clock. Burial will be in the cemetery at Kelloggsville.
