A Wilson Family Tree
Notes for Ann Rebecca Parks
From the Dryden manuscript:
Ann Rebecca Parks Edwards died at the family home north of Bunker Hill, on Tuesday, December 27, 1897, at the age of seventy-three years, ten months and thirteen days. She had been an invalid from paralysis for ten years, and for seven years had been confined to her bed, according to her obituary in the Bunker Hill Gazette. Her obituary continues:
Of their children, one died; those living are: William, Mena, Ark.; Mrs. Clark Burton, Greenville; Mrs. John Randolph, and Dora, Catherine and Chas. Edwards, all of this vicinity; there are seven grandchildren. Deceased was a devoted parent, and a devout Christian, a lifelong Presbyterian. The Carlinville minister of that denomination conducted funeral services at the family home yesterday, and the interment was in our cemetery.
