    Mrs. Lydia Niles, probably the oldest person who ever lived in the town of Alfred, being ninety-seven years, seven months and four days old, died at the home of her son Robert at Alfred Station, May 1, 1909.

    She was born in West Bloomfield, Ontario County, N. Y., one of the ten children of Royal and Lydia Wheelock. She was married to Elijah W. Niles, May 6, 1828, and moved with him to Allegany County in 1836. Her eldest living son, Ira, is 78 years old. He and her daughter Marian (Mrs. William Coates) live at Petrolia. Sarah (Mrs. Daniel Burdick) at Alfred, Selin at Belfast, Henry at Breedsville, Mich., Melvin at Alfred Station and Lewis at Plainfield are her other children now living. Those who knew her best say that she was a true, sincere, earnest Christian. At the services, May 4, a quartet from Alfred Station sang and Pastor Randolph preached from Zech. iv, 7.
