Surviah, or Sophia, was a daughter of Jacob Hodge and Sarah Williams. Wife of Peleg Potter. Mother of Addison Potter and Lyman H. Potter.
"Died in Charleston, on the 27th ult., Mrs. SURVIAH POTTER, wife of Peleg Potter, age 68 years.
"Sister Potter had been for nearly 50 years a faithful member of the Baptist Church, and by the grace of God, she adorned her christian profession most nobly. The Bible was her source of moral light, and Christ her dependence. She was emphatically a large-hearted, liberal-minded christian. In the death of this exemplary and highly esteemed sister, a wide breach has been made in the family circle, in the church and in the community. But while their loss is deeply mourned, there is this great consoling thought, that, 'Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.' " - Agitator, Wellsboro, PA, March 16, 1864, page 3.
