"IN MEMORY OF JANE DANKWORTH"
Jane [McCullough] Dankworth was born in Omagh, County Tyrone, Ireland, April 25, 1823; died April 12, 1896 and was therefore 72 years, 11 months and 17 days of age.
She came to this country when in her 15th year, remaining permanently.
She united with the Salem Methodist Church, of Philadelphia, in her early womanhood and had been allied to the Methodist faith up to the time of her decease, although, for a number of years, ill health prevented her attendance at church. She was married to John Dankworth, Dec. 29, 1851, they coming to Ohio, the following year.
The husband and three sons mourn her loss.
The deceased was laid to rest in Forest Hill Cemetery, Tuesday afternoon after services conducted at the residence by Rev. W. H. Wehrly.
Thus closed the life of one of Piqua's patient, useful and worthy Christian women, a wife, mother and friend who will be greatly missed in the home of which she was the light and stay, and by all to whom she was known.
She did with her might what her hands found to do.Source: The Miami Helmet
