Abigale Hitchcock



 

Died, Oct. 23d, 1882, Mrs. Abigale Hitchcock, mother-in-law of David Kingsley. Funeral services were held at the house of Mr. Kingsley, conducted by Rev. J. B. Johnson, Rev. Fairley assisted.
Mrs. Hitchcock was born in Colebrook, Litchfield county, Connecticut, Oct. 10, 18?2 and was married to Dove Hitchcock Nov. 20th, 1839, and moved to this State in 1872. The deceased had for years been a consistent member of the Baptist church, and was called away at a ripe old age to meet her Savior. Mrs. Kingsley, her daughter, preceeded her to the spirit land only about three weeks and mother and daughter, we trust, are now re-united in bliss eternal.
