They were pioneers of this section of the state and she had spent all but two years of her life in Taylor and Page counties, New Market and Hepburn being where she resided in Page County. She was unusually rugged for one of her age, and maintained her own home in Hepburn until only a few weeks ago. She was the mother of five children, all having preceded her in death except two daughters, Mrs. Leslie Dirrim of Hepburn and Mrs. Hunter. |
