Facts and Events
Obit found in the Genealogy Room, Administration Bldg, Lebanon, Warren Co, OH. EVA BLANCH JACKSON Eva Blanch, daughter of John McCain and Rebecca A. Jackson was born February 22, 1877, died December 7, 1911, aged 34 years, 9 months and 15 days. She united with Wesley M. E. church under the pastorage of Rev. John W. Burdsall. She taught three years in the public schools and was always interested in education. For years she was a faithful teacher of the young boy’s class in the Sunday School, and was leader in the song service of the Sunday School, the church and in the times of great sorrow that comes to all. She often gave her testimony of christianity in the words of some beautiful hymn and was always of a bright and sunny disposition. Her home life was that of helpfulness taking the lead in the home duties. She was always interested in the cause of temperance, was a member of W. C. T. U. and her physical condition alone kept her from taking an active part in the last great fight to keep saloons from our midst. Three years ago her health began to fail; she bore her suffering with patience, never complaining. Just before the great test that came to her and she did not know whether she would awaken to this life again, a friend said to her, “just think of the song, ‘God Will Take Care of You’.” She answered “Yes, I will.” Her submission to her Heavenly Father and admonition to friends and loved ones is best known by those who knew her best. Her’s will be an eternal peace. References
