Descendant of James Forbes (1657-1726), Camden County, North Carolina
*******
OBITUARY:
Mrs. Cortena Trask, widow of the late Alfred Trask, died last Thursday evening at Chicago, where she had gone to submit to a painful and dangerous surgical operation. Two tumors were taken from her, and she seemed to be doing nicely when death overtook her, the cause of which was pyemia or blood poisoning. The funeral services, conducted by Rev. R. G. McCarthy, were held at the family residence, corner Buckeye and Seventh streets, on Sunday afternoon, and the mortal remains were followed to their last resting place by a large number of friends. Mrs. Trask leaves four children orphans, now to mourn their sad and irreparable loss. She was a lady of christian faith and practice, and her refined and amiable disposition endeared her to her friends and neighbors, who feel a sincere and profound sorrow at her untimely death. Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Trask, of Illinois, and Mr. Isaac Forbes, of Harper county, attended the funeral of Mrs. Cortena Trask last Sunday. Mrs. Trask is a sister and Mr. Forbes a brother of the deceased. Mr. Trask has a fine farm in this county, on which he is having erected a $1500 house. (Abilene Reflector 3-20-1884)
