Deceased was born in Staffordville [Staffordshire], England, April 27, 1830, and at the same year came with her parents to America, settling in Pennsylvania; five years later she moved with her parents to Wisconsin.” “In 1844 she was married to LOUIS POQUETTE; thirteen children were born to them. Four sons and two daughters survive the mother, all of whom were present at the funeral, namely; John H, Beloit; Louis and Leonard of Waldwick; George of this city; Mrs. Josephine Davis, of Willow Springs; Mrs. Sophia Powell of Shullsburg. In 1898 she was united in marriage to Mr. Jonathan Matthews, who is left to mourn the loss of a devoted Christian wife.” “The funeral took place on Tuesday morning, with services at Trinity Episcopal Church, Rev. Mr. Chase officiating; and burial in Graceland Cemetery*. The large attendance of neighbors and friends attested to the high esteem in which the deceased was held by the community.” Additional Comments: [*Iowa County record of death states that she was buried in City Cemetery, Mineral Point, WI, as do Rev. Chase’s church notes. There we find a headstone for LOUIS POQUETTE and his children, but JANE’s name is not carved on the stone. The Matthews family had a family plot on the ‘Wallace farm.’ Could JANE have been buried there, since the newspaper and the Death Record do not agree?] File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/wi/iowa/obits/h/holmespo277gob.txt Obituary Year 1902 Notes b.d. per obit: 4/27/1830; married name per obit: Matthews unclear as to where she is buried; Graceland? as per obit; OCC as per death record and Rev Chase's church records Sources Find A Grave Possible Candidate Cemetery Old City Cemetery Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
