Fanny Babcock, widow of Ellery Babcock, was born in Brookfield, N. Y., March 13, 1814, and died in Albion, Wis., April 25, 1898.
In the year 1846, she came to Wisconsin, lived about four years on Rock Prairie near Johnstown Centre, then three years in Milton, after which the family settled on a farm near Albion, which has since been their home. She has been for many years identified with all that interests us as Seventh-day Baptists, and at the time of her death was an honored member of the Albion Seventh-day Baptist church, and by her self-sacrificing love in administering to the necessities of others has given unmistakable evidence of being a disciple of Jesus, and has won the affection of many hearts who share in the bereavement occasioned by her decease.
She was the mother of two daughters and three sons, all of whom except the oldest son, who died about six years ago, survive her. Funeral sermon by the pastor, from Job 5: 26. S. H. B.
