Facts and Events
OBITUARY (undated newspaper clipping, probably about 9 October 1913, published in the Putnam, Connecticut area): "Mrs. Juliett (White) Richmond died Wednesday morning at her home No. 6 Church Street, Putnam, aged 66 years after an illness of more than a year. "She was born here and was daughter of Henry A. and Amy (Oatley) White. Her early years were spent here. In 1868 she married to Thomas Richmond, since which time they have resided in Elmville, Putnam and other places. For the past three years, Mr. Richmond has been an overseer in the Putnam Woolen company's mill. "Mrs. Richmond is survived by her husband, three sons and four daughters: Everett of Putnam, Mrs. Annie Pickford and James Richmond of Clinton, Mass., Mrs. Grace Shaw, Edward Richmond, and Mrs. Bessie Seaver of Leominster, Mass., and Mrs. Emily Taylor of San Diego, Cal. There are also nearly twenty grandchildren. Henry White of Danielson is a brother of the deceased and Mrs. William Buck of Oxford, Mass. and Mrs. Emily Bastow of this place are surviving sisters. "Mrs. Richmond had always retained many old acquaintances and friends here, by whom she was highly esteemed, and who will greatly miss her occasional visits, which served to keep alive the ties of former years. "The funeral was in Putnam Saturday and was attended by relatives from this place." Another newspaper clipping reads: "The Women's Auxiliary (of St. Philip's Episcopal Church in Putnam CT) will meet with Mrs. George L. Padgett, 87 Fremont street, Thursday afternoon, April 16. "On Easter morning was used for the first time the lecture Bible, given in memory of Juliett (White) Richmond, late wife of Thomas Richmond, Lay Chairman of the Executive Committee. The book is according to the American Revised Version, the most accurate translation ever made into any language, and recently authorized for use in the Church. It is bound in full leather, purple in color, with the inscription in gilt on the front cover. Mrs. Richmond was a faithful communicant of St. Philip's, constant in attendance at services, and active in the work of the church." References
