Emaline M. Millard, the daughter of John and Betsey Coon Millard, was born March 28, 1843, in West Edmeston, Otsego Co., N. Y., and died at Walworth, Wis., November 12, 1918. She was taken suddenly ill shortly after noon on November 12 and before seven that evening quietly passed away at the home of her niece and nephew, Ida and John Millard, with whom she had been living for the past three years. When about two years old she came with her parents to the township of Linn and in 1885 moved to Walworth, where she has since resided. She is the last of a family of eight children. With no immediate relatives other than nephews and nieces left to mourn, she still leaves the fragrance of a gentle, kindly spirit that will be as a sweet memory to many friends. In May, 1876, she united with the Walworth Seventh Day Baptist Church and was an earnest, consistent Christian all her life. The funeral was held at the Millard home, November 15, with Pastor Loofbourrow officiating, and the body was laid at rest in the Walworth Cemetery. C. B. L.
