Her obituary:

"Mary A. King Eastabrooks was born in Ohio, October 31, 1824, and moved with her parents to Sangamon, Ill., in 1828. From there she went to Bloomington, where her parents died. In 1832, she was adopted by Dr. Gaylord, with whom she moved to Magnolia, Ill., in 1837. She remained there until 1845, then moved to this place with her adopted parents, with home she lived until she was married to Charles Eastabrooks, July 3, of the same year. To this union were born four children, two sons and two daughters, Charles and William, Mrs. S. V. Hendrick and Laura, who died in 1877. The husband preceded her in 1857 and she was united in marriage to Decatur Eastabrooks in 1867, who died in April 1890. Since then she made her home with her daughter. For the last few weeks she has been failing rapidly and on Wednesday evening, Nov. 15, she passed away. She was a faithful member of the Methodist Church for many years and was active and in sympathy with all Christian work. Many a good cause has been helped on its way by her cheerful words and kindly sympathy and all felt that in her they had a true friend."
