and Simeon, was born November 16, 1852. She had the scarlet fever at
twelve years of age, and has ever since been an invalid and a great
sufferer much of the time. She is a devoted Christian, and suffers
with patience and resignation to the will of God, who she confidently
believes afflicts her for her spiritual good. In connection with
Andrew H. Rosenkrans, of Pawpaw, Illinois, she has assisted the
writer, by furnishing many items concerning her father’s family and
descendants, and thus she has helped as we believe, to confer a
benefit upon future generations, though a sufferer and confined to the
house. She now lives at the Invalid’s Home, Madison, Ohio.
