DEATH NOTICE, ST. MARY'S GAZETTE, ST. MARY'S, PENNSYLVANIA: "Mrs. George Selle: Mrs. Selle passed away on Sunday night at 11:30 o'clock at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Conrad Friedl on Chestnut Street, following an illness of five months. On Thursday last she suffered a stroke of paralysis and since that time gradually grew worse until the end came. Mrs. Selle was born November 2, 1833 in Rannungen, Germany, and was therefore in her 81st year when death claimed her. At the age of 16 she came to the United States with her parents who settled in Coopers Settlement, Clearfield County (PA). In 1854 she was united in marriage to George Selle. Eight children blessed the union, of whom six survive. They are Mary (Mrs. Michael Wittman), Frances (Mrs. Conrad Friedl), Theresa (Mrs. Joe Finfinger), Anna (Mrs. John Friedl), Joseph, all of St. Marys, and Barbara (Mrs. Henry Kleisath) of Smethport. One brother, Nicholas Kirchner, of Herndon, Kansas, also survives. He has but recently returned to the west from a three months visit in St. Marys. For the past five months the deceased has made her home with her daughter, Mrs. Conrad Friedl, prior to which time she lived with her son Joseph, on Windfall Road.

The funeral was held yeterday morning at 9 o'clock from the St. Marys Church with Father Luke, O.S.B. officiating, and was largely attended by relatives and friends of the deceased. Interment was made int eh Catholic Cemetery. Mrs. Selle was one of those women who pass though life scattering sunshine and flowers of happiness by the way. She lived close to the bosom of her family and there her life work lay, close by the fireside. Her demise leaves a void which can never be filled and which time can only partly efface. Those who attended the funeral from out of town were: Mr. and Mrs. Henry Kleisath of Smethport; Mayme Briendle of Buffalo; Mr. and Mrs. J. McKnight of Johnsonburg; Joseph Finfinger and daugther, Pittsburg; and Emma Herbstritt of Beechwood."
