Mrs. Carrie Flagler Angel died at Marlborough

Father Conducted Large Tannery At Old Fallsburgh Many Years Ago -- She Made Money in California Oil Lands

Mrs. Carrie Flagler Angel died at the home of her sister, Mrs. William Young, at Marlborough last week where she had lived for the last three years.

Mrs. Angel was a daughter of Nicholas Flagler, who at one time was a prominent and wealthy tanner in this section of the country, when the industry was at its height in Sullivan and adjoining counties. In partnership with Edward Palen, Mr. Flagler owned and conducted tha large tannery at Old Fallsbuirgh, another tannery at Neversink and others in different sections of the county. Flaglers's possession and home was the property now known as the Flagler House, one of the largest summer boarding house properties in Sullivan county.

At the death of her father Mrs. Angel became the owner of the old homestead, where she was born, and developed it into a summer resort. Mrs. Angel was the pioneer in the summer boarding business in that section and probably in the county. She entertained a wealthy class of New York people and the summer home became famous far and wide for its hospitality and entertainment. Mrs. Angel, who was then Miss Flagler, went to San Luis Obispo, Cal., to spend the winter and while there met Myron Angel, a newspaper man, whom she later married. She also became interested in California real estate and invested her money in lands and fruit orchards. The lands later developed oil and she made considerable money. For several years she and her husband spent the summers at Fallsburgh, running the summer resort and returned to California for the winters. The husband died several years ago. About 15 years ago Mrs. Angel sold the old homestead at Fallsborough to Fleisher & Morgenstein, who have spent nearly two hundred thousand dollars in improving and enlarging the property and now intertain more than 500 guests there.

For the past three years Mrs. Angel had resided with her sister, Mrs. Young, at Marlborough. Her death was caused by pleurisy from which she had been sick only a week. The funeral occurred on Saturday. The only surviving family is her sister, Mrs. Young, the parents having died more than 25 years ago.

Mrs. Angel was a real lady. She inherited her graces from her mother.
