Mrs. Marion Oder To Mark 100th Birthday Jan, 19S3

Next Friday, January 19. will mark the 100th birthday anniversary of Mrs. Marion C. Oder, former well known and esteemed resident of South Grove Township, who now resides at 7041 State Line, Hammond, Indiana.

She was born Jan. 19, 1862, in South Grove, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James E Renwick, pioneer farmers. She attended what was then known as the Renwick School, located on what is now Route 64, later attending the Rockford Seminary from 1878 to 1879. This seminary is now known as Rockford College.

She lived on the farm until 1884. when the family moved to Rockford. In May of 1887, she was married to Dr. E. E. Oder. who passed away in 1923, since then has lived with her daughter. Mrs. J. L. Lammering, at Hammond, Indiana.

Mrs. Oder is in good health for one of her advanced years, and has a most remarkable memory, being able to recall the days of her early life in a new country where work was done without electricity or machine power.

Mrs. Rose Renwick Lawbaugh, 82, who lives at Bethany House, 412 N. Court Street, Rockford, is Mrs. Oder's sister, and Mrs. William Bell, Mrs. Harvey Larson and Mrs. Sharpe, the latter of Paw Paw, are her cousins.
