"The Sabbath Recorder", Vol 107, No 18, p 574, Nov. 4, 1929.
Mrs. Georgiana Loveland Langworthy, wife of Ex-Senator Albert H. Langworthy, died at her home at 33 Elm Street, Westerly, R. I., in the early morning of October 2, 1929, following an illness of several years.
Mrs. Langworthy was born in Chepachet, R. I., March 29, 1851. She was the daughter of George W. and Anne C. Sheldon, and was the last of her family - three sisters and two brothers having passed on.
When four years old she came to Westerly to be with her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. John Loveland [Find A Grave memorials 129037674 and 129037676], and was later adopted by them. She received her education at Mr. Woodbridge's School on High and Union Streets and later attended Dr. Gannett's School in Boston, Mass.
On October 5, 1874, she was united in marriage to Albert Henry Langworthy of Westerly, who survives her. They always made their home at 33 Elm Street but passed many summers at their cottage at Weekapaug.
Three children were born to them: Sarah Alice Langworthy and Nathan Loveland Langworthy, both deceased; and Mrs. Emma Langworthy Burdick, wife of Dr. Clayton A. Burdick, pasor of the Pawcatuck Seventh Day Baptist Church. Besides her husband and daughter, Mrs. Burdick, she is survived by a grandson, Robert Duncan Langworthy, also of Westerly.
Mrs. Langworthy was early baptized and became a member of the First Baptist Church, and later joined the Pawcatuck Seventh Day Baptist Church, of which she remained a member to the time of her death. She was active in all departments of the church work, and for many years was superintendent of the Junior department of the Sabbath school. She took an earnest part in philanthropic work and was greatly interested in the welfare of the community.
Mrs. Langworthy was for years a member of the Board of Managers of the Seventh Day Baptist Missionary Society, giving strong support to educational, missionary, and denominational enterprises. Her gracious manner and sterling character endeared her to both old and young.
Farewell services were held at 33 Elm Street, Sabbath day, October 5, the anniversary of her marriage, and were conducted by the Rev. S. H. Davis.
