Pat,
I don't know how to thank you except to say thank you so very much. One of
her sons, Charles, was my great grandfather. Taking the time to look that up
for me, a complete stranger goes far above kindness. Thank you
Cousin John, Looks like Sadie wanted to live near her son Edward, your great
grandfather. Is Vicki on this list? Think that she might swing by the
County offices on her way home from work in Elkhart to get Sadie's death
certificate? I believe that once we have that, and if it has her parents on
it, that will be a wall we can climb over, one I've been trying to break
down for many years.
Brian

Hello Mr. Smead,
Following is the obit you requested. It appeared in the Fort Wayne, In.
Journal-Gazette on Feb. 5, 1910 on page 2, col. 2:
Mrs. Sadie Campbell, 57 years of age, formerly of Fort Wayne, died
Thursday evening at Goshen, where she had
been making her home for a number of years. Surviving relatives
include
six sons, Charles, Alfred, Harry, William,
Joseph and E. D. Smead.
The remains will arrive in Fort Wayne Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock
over the Lake Shore railroad and will be taken to
the home of her sister, Mrs Kate Robertson, on South Calhoun street.
Interment at Hatfield cemetery.
If you want further information regarding her exact date of birth, you
would
have to contact Elkart County, which is where the records of death
for
Goshen, In. would be.
Pat

you look up an obit for me on Sarah (Sadie) Campbell. Sadie was my
GG
grandmother, born in June, 1853 and died in 1910. I'm not sure if she
died
in Allen county however she is buried in Hatfield cemetery in
Washington
township under the name of Smead even though she was re married to a
Campbell.
