• Notes

  from "The Wahoo Democrat", 12 Sep 1889 (posted on findagave.com) "Died, at her home near Weston, Neb., Mrs. Carrie Woods Wickard, on Wednesday morning Sept. 4th, 1889, at the age of 51 years, 9 months and 1 day. She was buried in the Weston cemetery Sept 5, Rev Belville officiating at the funeral services. Mrs. Wickard was born in Oxford, Butler County, Ohio, Dec 4 1838. At the age of 19 she was married to Jacob M Wickard. Shortly after their marriage they moved to Logansport, Ind., where they lived about 11 years. From Indiana they came to this state and settled on their farm a short distance southwest of Weston, where they lived when Mrs. Wickard died. Thirteen children were born to them, eleven boys and two girls. Six boys, with the father survive the mother. Mrs Wickard has been a confirmed invalid for over five years, nearly two of which time she was scarcely able to move hand or foot. She became a member of the Presbyterian church at the age of 16 years and maintained her Christian integrity up to her death. She was baptized, we are informed, by President Harrison's father, who was a minister of the Presbyterian church near her childhood home. Mr. and Mrs. Wickard were charter members of the Presbyterian church of Wahoo. She died full of faith and hope for the better life, and though suffering severely all the time, she was patiently waiting for her summons to the eternal home, which came Wednesday morning, Sept. 4. 'Well done, good and faithful servant.'" - contributors note - I think that she was actually baptized by Pres. Harrison's father in law, John W. Scott.
