I recently found this obituary. Can anyone add more to/about this
family? I know she was married to a descendent of the John Carr family of
WV.
Gospel Herald was a Mennonite publication that was apparently mailed out
to the congregations.
Gospel Herald Aug 14, 1930 Obituary
Carr - Sarah Cordelia (Elza) Carr was born Dec 1, 1860 and died Jul 9,
1930 at the old place, age 69 years 7 months 8 days. She lived near
Whitmer, WV, the greater part of her life. She was a faithful member of
the Mennonite church since 1904. Though an invalid for a number of years
and suffering much of the time, she seldom complained but bore her
affliction patiently, waiting for the time when the Lord would take her
to Himself and the loved ones gone before. Her Husband and 2 children
preceded her in death. 5 daughters and 2 sons as well as a number of
grandchildren remain. Funeral services were held at the home of brother
Hiram Wenner, assisted by brother Joseph Driver. Text 1 Sam. 20:18.
Interment at the Whitmer Cemetery.
