Hi..Could someone please look up an old obit for me? It is for Mary Olive Gaddis who died April 17, 1939. Thank you so much. Sherry

If you still want the obit, I can look it up for you on my next visit to Mt. Carmel Public Library.

That would be great! Thank you so much! She was married to a Jessop!

I found the obit on microfilm but part of it was coveredr. Here is what I found: Mrs. Mary Olive Jessop who made her home at the home of her sister, Mrs. S. S. Seiler on Route Two, died this morning at 2 o'clock after an illness of five years. She was a daughter of John and Mandana Walton Gaddis and was born at Millersburg, Ind., July 8, 1859, making her age at death 79 years, 9 months, and 9 days. She was first married to Lewis Wilson in Fairfield. He died in 1883. Then she was married to Maj. Alexander S. Jessop in 1888, at Wayne City, Ill. He died at Long Beach, Calif., and was buried in the national cemetery. Surviving are three brothers and one sister, William A. Gaddis, Bartelsville, Okla., Jacob H. Gaddis, of Weatherford, Okla., Mae Gaddis Seiler, Mount Carmel, Route Two, and Bertn N. Gaddis, Maywood, Ill. One son, Edward Wilson, died in ...the rest is blacked out.

Thank you so much for the obit! You are a geneology angel! Did you happen to get the date of the obit, because it really doesn't say when she died, except today. Would you know how I can find out where she is buried? Thank you again, I really appreciate it!
