While the blizzard raged without last Saturday night, death stole gently
into the Hayes home on Twenty-Second Street and brought to its close the
noble life of a kindhearted and loveable woman after years of suffering
from partial paralysis, Mrs. Hayes passed quietly into the world beyond.
Deceased was born in 1830 in Limerick, Ireland. After coming to America
at the age of 18, she resided in Lowell, Mass., and was married there to
Thos. Hayes and in 1857 they came west and settled in this city. During
their residence here seven children were born to them, four sons, Thomas
Jr., William, Timothy and John and three daughters, Ella, Lizzie and
Kate. Of this splendid family of nine, now only three survive, the
Misses Lizzie and Kate of this city and John of Manitowoc. Thomas met a
violent death when he became caught in the shafting at the chair
factory. His devoted mother never completely recovered from the shock of
this misfortune and to get away from the factories the family moved west
and settled in Baker county, Minnesota in 1880 where they prospered for
22 years before returning to again make their home in this city. While
in the west another son, Timothy and daughter, Ella were called by death
and shortly after the family's return here another son, William also
died. The father, Thos. Hayes, passed away last April.
Mrs. Hayes' remaining son, John, who is a motorman on the interurban
line and resides in Manitowoc was unable to be here at the time of his
mother's death owing to the severe storm Saturday. He reached here
Sunday morning making the trip on foot. The funeral was held Tuesday
from St. Luke's church of which the deceased was a faithful and lifelong
member.
