  • Notes 
    • Obit: Gospel Herald, August 1922:

      "Schrock. Katherine Schrock (nee Roszhart) was born at Morton, Tazewell Co., Ill., Aug. 29, 1861; departed this life Aug. 5, 1922; aged 60 y. 11 m. 7 d.
      She had been in failing health for some time which developed into a cancer of the stomach and finally caused her death. On Aug. 15, 1882, she was united in marriage to Peter Schrock of Danvers, Ill. She leaves to mourn her departure a loving husband, 4 sons, 3 daughters, and 15 grandchildren. Father, mother and 4 sisters preceded her to the spirit world.
      She accepted Christ as her Savior and united with the Amish Mennonite Church in early life, and remained a faithful member until death. She was a kind wife, a loving mother, and is the first one to break the family circle. The remains were taken from Shelbyville to Meadows, Ill., which had been requested.
      Funeral services were held at the home of her brother Aug. 8, and laid to rest at the Waldo cemetery. Services were conducted by Bro. Reber of Shelbyville, and Bros. Kinsinger, Wirkler, and Hartzler of Gridley, Ill. Texts, I Cor. 15: 42-58; Rev. 7."
