Notes for JANE WRIGHT:

OBIT: JANE WRIGHT LOCK

The death of Mrs. Lock of Beamish Park, at the ripe age 87 years, will be deeply felt by a large circle of relatives and friends. The deceased lady was born at Beamish in the days of the late Squire Davidson, whose love of neatness and almost parental care of his tenants she could well remember. After a long and varied life, in the course of which she lived in different parts of the country, Mrs. Lock, when a widow, went to reside with her nephew amid the beautiful scenery of her native valley, where, in a neat cheerful little cottage, the closing years of her life were spent peacefully and happily. She had outlived nearly all her generation, and had long ago lost count of her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, many of whom are in America. She was throughout her career industrious, cheerful and warm hearted; she had a wonderful memory, and her eyesight and hearing seemed little impaired by age. Even in her old age she was one of the best knitters in the district, and in everything related to housekeeping she was equally skillful. After a short illness she passed away on Friday night at the home of her son-in-law, Mr. George Smith, at Waterhouses. Her work accomplished, she had lived a useful and honourable life, and was ready for the summons. Those lines of Mrs. Barbauld's might most have been written for Mrs. Lock;

"Life, we've been long together Through pleasant and through cloudy weather 'Tis hard to part when friends are dear Perhaps 'twill coat a sigh, a tear Then steal away, give little warning."

Jane Lock was still living with her nephew, Anthony, at the time of the 1881 census:

She was the eldest daughter of John and Margaret Boag and one of a family of seven, having five brothers and one sister, all of whom are deceased.

On July 22, 1843 she was united in marriage to William Lock and to this union five children were born, all of whom survive her; John B. of Gravity, Iowa; Margaret A. Chandler of Goodland, Kansas; Benjamin B. of Sherwood, North Dakota; and Jane E Wolf and Mary H. both of Packwood, Iowa.

She also leaves to mourn her loss, fifteen grandchildren, twenty-four great-grandchildren.

She, with her husband, came to the United States in 1845, landing at New York on July 4th. They settled near Pittsburg, Pennsylvannia, where they lived six years, when in 1851 they moved to Blue Point, Iowa. Later they purchased a farm two miles northeast of Packwood and here they spent their declining years. In her youth she gave her heart to the Lord and joined the Primitive Methodist Church in England and all her life which is equal to three average lives, she has been his faithful servant sometimes passing through the waters of affliction and sorrow but when the rain descended and the floods came and the winds blew and beat upon her house it fell not for it was founded upon a rock.

"Servant of God, well done! The battle's fought, the race is won, And thou art crowned at last."

Notes for GOLDA FAYE LOCKE:

OBIT:

Golda Faye Locke Carter, eldest daughter of I.T. & Katie Locke, was born in Keokuk County,Iowa near Ollie, October 21, 1804 and passed to her reward November 2, 1914 at her home north-west of Ollie, aged 20 years and 22 days. She suffered many weeks from the dread disease of consumption, but thru all her suffering she was patient and endured with Christian fortitude her sufferings until the Master said "it was enough, come up higher." On July 2, 1913, she married Earl Carter and to this union one son was born, Robert Dean. She and her husband were just beginning to make a home here when she was called to her home in the skies. She was a resident of this county all her life with the exception of three years when her parents moved out West. She taught school in the Braden District No. 6 for two terms and endured herself to all her pupils. By her gentleness and kindness, she won friends by the score, and to know her was to love her, and she will be sadly missed in the home and among her large circle of friends. The deceased professed saving faith in Christ and in her sickness it was her delight to talk about her home of the future and a few days before the end came. She was continually singing the praises of God and while the words could not be understood by those around her yet from the radiant expression of her countenance one could tell she was about ready to join the choir invisible.

She leaves to mourn her departure a father, mother, husband, and little seven month old son and three sisters, Gladys, Fern, and Freda Locke and many other friends and relatives.

An obedient daughter, a loving mother and faithful wife, has gone to her reward and to hear her Master say, "Well done thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joys of the Lord."
