Died at age 98.
A seamstress from Ireland, Delia became the mail-order bride of Jacksonville (Jackson County), Oregon Businessman Jeremiah Nunan (1839 - 1916)(Memorial# 14487057).
For the mail-order bride was a mail-order house. The couple lived in the historical Jeremiah Nunan House the "Catalog House" located at 635 N. Oregon Street in Jacksonville (Jackson County), Oregon, which was ordered and built just in time for Christmas of 1892 from Design No. 143 from Knoxville, Tenn., Architect George Franklin Barber's 1892 nationwide catalog, "The Cottage Souvenir, Revised and Enlarged."
Delia left Jacksonville (Jackson County), Oregon and moved to Oakland (Alameda County), California shortly after her husband Jeremiah took his own life with a gun in Jacksonville (Jackson County), Oregon on May 17, 1916.
Delia also left behind in Jacksonville (Jackson County), Oregon the memories of Four (4) of the couple's Seven (7) Children who also predeceased her: the eldest Son, Edward John Nunan (1875 - 1895)(Memorial# 14487055), who died at age 19 years and 2 months after falling from his horse; a Daughter, Ella Rose Nunan (1878 - 1898)(Memorial# 14487056) who died at age 20 from apparent food poisoning; and the couple had a set of twins who both died shortly after their births. All except Delia are laid to rest in the Jacksonville (Jackson County), Oregon Cemetery.
The broken-hearted, mail-order bride never remarried, nor did she return to that mail-order house.
