- Obituary of Elizabeth E. DEATHERAGE (WHITE), Morgan Co Illinois ©2006 Submitted by:
Cemetery Reading
Name of Deceased: DEATHERAGE, Elizabeth E. (WHITE)
Name of Newspaper: Waverly Journal, Waverly, Illinois
Date of Obituary: December, 1919
Obituary: Elizabeth E. WHITE was born in Morgan County, Illinois, July 19, 1839, and departed this life Saturday, February 22, 1919, at the home of her son, Alvin DEATHERAGE, of Beardstown, aged 79 years, 7 months and 3 days. March 10, 1861 she was united in marriage to Harrison DEATHERAGE. To this union was born twelve children, namely: Henry, Eddie, Clara Lee, James Weldon and Fred, who preceded their mother in death; and Julia MCMAHON of Waverly; William Howard and Leonard, of Seattle, Wash.; John Newton of Jacksonville; Alvin of Beardstown; Frank of Chicago, and Sarah Louis GEIGER, of Warsaw. With one sister, Mrs. Jane DEATHERAGE of Waverly, ten grandchildren and three great grandchildren survive to mourn their loss.
In 1854 she was converted and since that time she has lived a true consecrated life to God. When the M.E. Church, South, was organized in Waverly she was united with this class, and was one of the charter members, and she remained with this church until death.
Her suffering through the years of her afflictions were borne with true Christian fortitude and patience. She wielded a most beneficent influence in her family and among her friends, being loved and honored by all. But through all her sufferings her faith in her Savior grew stronger, and such was her faith and influence that it was a benediction to be in her presence. Her family rise up and call her Blessed, and so do the numerous relatives and friends she left behind.
The remains were brought to Waverly Monday morning and funeral services held in the M.E. Church, South at 10 a.m. conducted by Rev. W. D. HUMPHREY, the presiding elder. Interment was in Rogers cemetery, west of Waverly.
