Marion Weekly Sentinel Thursday August 20, 1925
The funeral of the late Mrs. Adelaide Albaugh was held from the country home west of Marion last Thursday afternoon. The services were conducted by Rev. Earle A. Baker, pastor of the Methodist church. Ethel Wood Birmington sang with wonderful feeling "Rock of Ages" and "The End of a Perfect Day." The burial took place in Shiloh cemetery.
A large number of relatives and friends, many from a distance, gathered and paid a beautiful tribute of respect to her memory.
Adelaide Reed was born in Chambersburg, Penna., Nov. 8, 1847, and passed away August 10, 1925, at the home where she had resided for more than fifty years.
Coming to Iowa with the family in 1863, at the age of sixteen, she made her home in Marion for several years with the family of R.D. Stephens.
She was married to John Albaugh, March 26, 1873. Her husband passed away August 9, 1913, she having lived just twelve years and one day after his death.
To this union was born six sons, the eldest having died in infancy; the second son, Daniel W., died in May 1904, leaving his wife and daughter, who have since that time made their home with the grandmother.
She is survived by a brother out of a family of ten children, Martin V. Reed of Clarinda, Iowa, and four sons, Char R. Albaugh of Marion, Iowa; R.D. Albaugh of Winner, S.Dak.; J.J. Albaugh who resides on the home farm, and Harold S. Albaugh of Alamo, Texas; also by her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Flora Albaugh, at home, and by nine grandchildren.
Mrs. Albaugh was a member of long standing in the Shiloh M. E. church, of Robert Mitchell Post, W.R.C., at Marion, and of the Linn County Old Settlers association and Pleasant Grove Country club.
It was her good fortune, during the last few months of her life, to have in her home her only brother and all her children and grandchildren, and the reunion and associations did much to take her mind off her sufferings. She was a patient sufferer, ready and willing to meet her God, and, as she said at different times when her sufferings seemed too great to bear, she had not lost her faith in Jesus.
Mother is gone, but the influence of her Christian life will never be lost sight of, by those left behind.
