Mrs. Philippa James, relict of the late John James, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Joseph Gribble, in the town of Waldwick, last Saturday evening, aged 84 years and one month. Mrs. James was one of the pioneers of this section, having come to Mineral Point in 1843, with her husband. In 1850 they settled upon the farm in the town of Waldwick, when most of that town was natural prairie and grove. For a few years preceding her husband's death they resided in Mineral Point, but most of her 52 years of life in Wisconsin were spent in the town which she had helped to make a pleasant and prosperous farming community. Two sons and a daughter survive, namely, Henry James a prosperous farmer of Waldwick, Uriah James, business at Hollandale, and Mrs. Joseph Gribble, with whom the mother died, besides a number of grandchildren and great grandchildren. Deceased was in perfect health down to a few moments before death. On Christmas she attended a family party at the home of her granddaughter, Mrs. Wm. Uren, returning to the home of her daughter on Friday. A few moments before death on Saturday evening, she complained of being tired on her feet, and retired to her room to lay down. Mrs. Gribble and a neighbor gave the old lady close attention, but she insisted she was not sick, and in no pain. Yet with but a few gasps, on being given a drink, the breath of life departed. She was buried in the city cemetery, Mineral Point, beside the remains of her husband, on Monday, a large procession of her neighbors following the familiar and loved form to its final rest.

Birth County Cornwall Birth Country Code UK Birth Country England Biographical Text from Mary Knudson: James James, retired farmer, is a native of Cornwall, England. He was born Feb 10, 1815. He emigrated to the U. S. He arrived in New York April 2, 1840. He came directly to Wisconsin on April 10, 1840. He engaged in mining at Wiota. The first winter he lived in a cabin near Shullsburg. He could see the stars through the roof. He continued mining until 1848, then went farming in the town of Waldwick. In 1852 he started to California and returned in September 1855. He engaged in farming until four years ago when he moved to the city. In 1836 Mr. James married Lavinia Rowe, who was a native of Cornwall, England. She died November 29, 1851. Mr. James then married Mrs. Mary Rees (Reese?) Aug. 23, 2856, leaving one son, William J., living in LaFayette County. She had married James Reese and the son belonged to them. Mr. James has had eleven children, four of whom survive—Susannah, married and living in Nebraska ; Richard, living on the home farm; James D., engaged in business in this city; Joseph H., engaged in business in Sac City, Iowa. When Mr. James arrived in Galena he only had 2 cents in his pocket; his success in life is owing to his own efforts; he owns two good farms, besides other property.
