Jane Woods (McKain) Adams, daughter of Jane (Morrow) (10 May 1818 - 28 June 1897 in Volinia, Cass County, Michigan, USA) and Thomas McKain (06 Oct 1820 - 31 July 1897 in Volinia, Cass County, Michigan, USA)
Obituary: Jane Woods McKain was born in County Downs, Ireland, Jan. 2, 1847, and died Feb 22, 1913. She came with her parents to Honeyeye Falls, New York. Later when a child, they came to Niles, Mich., and when she had grown to womanhood they came to Porter, Mich., where she was united in marriage to Uriah M. Adams April 19, 1865, and settled on the farm where she died. Six children came to bless this union: Mrs. Effie Adams of Marcellus, Chester and Archie of Porter, Mrs. Mary Sykes of Benton Harbor, Mason of South Bend and Ross of Kalamazoo. After the death of the father, which occurred at the home farm July 5, 1900, she moved to Marcellus, where she lived except when with her children, her death occuring at the old homestead while visiting her son, Chester. This loss will be most keenly felt she being a very devoted mother and a wise counseler to her children. Besides the children there are left eleven grandchildren, two sisters, three brothers and a host of friends who will remember her many acts of kindness. She was always ready to help those who needed her most. Truly her life was one of usefulness, always helping to bear the burdens of others. Although not affiliated with any church, she believed in the teachings of the Bible. She was bourne to her last resting place by her four sons and two son-in-law.
