Mrs. Loretta Acker Dies At Home Of Daughter In Pleasant Mills
Mrs. Loretta Acker, 87, a pioneer resident of Adams county, died Tuesday noon at the home of her daughter Mrs. Dr. J. W. Vizard, in Pleasant Mills, after an extended illness. Mrs. Acker's health began to fail two years ago when she suffered a stroke of paralysis and she never regained her former health. A few days ago, she suffered a relapse and remained unconscious until the end.
Mrs. Acker was a daughter of Ardalas and Hannah Carter and was born in Franklin county, Ohio, in 1837. When two years old, Mrs. Acker came to St. Marys township, Adams county with her parents in a prairie schooner. A tract of land near Pleasant Mills was cleared of timber and the family located there. Since then, for 85 years in all, Mrs. Acker resided in the vicinity of Pleasant Mills. On November 27, 1856, she was married to Norman Acker, who died 25 years ago. After the death of her husband, Mrs. Acker continued to live in her home at Pleasant Mills. Since her health failed her two years ago, she has resided with her daughter, Mrs. Vizard.
Besides the daughter, Mrs. Vizard, Mrs. Acker is survived by two daughters, Mrs. Charles Bartling, of Los Angeles, California, and Mrs. H. A. Worden, of Marion, and two sons, A. N. Acker of Macomb, Missouri, and Austin Acker, of Pleasant Mills.
Funeral services will be held from the Baptist church in Pleasant Mills, of which Mrs. Acker was a member, at 2:30 o'clock Friday afternoon, the Rev. W. H. Day, officiating. Burial will be made in the Pleasant Mills cemetery.
