    • The following is a transcription supplied by Frances Gretchen (Klein) Leenerts of an obituary for Mary D. (Maben) Wellemeyer which she reported had appeared on 19 November 1890 in the Garner Signal, of Garner, Iowa.

      Mary D. (Maben) Wellemeyer was born in Forest City 15 May 1861. She died at the home of her parents the 12th of November 1890 with that dread disease consumption. She passed away rather soon, her age being 29 years, 5 months, 27 days. She was united in the bonds of holy wedlock to H. Fred Wellemeyer the 25th of December 1878. The result of this union was three children (boys) of whom one passed on before. She died in triumphant faith in the Lord Jesus Christ -- making her preparation on her bed of affliction. She leaves a devoted husband, two children, father and mother, four brothers and a host of friends and relatives. "Oh rest, how sweet thou art to the weary pilgrim, falling asleep in the arms of Jesus."
