She came to America in 1870, and was united in the holy bonds of matrimony with Jacob Stalter Feb. 11, 1872. They made their home in the vicinity of Meadows, Ill. To this union were born four sons and one daughter. Two sons and their daughter preceded her in death, leaving to mourn her sudden departure her deeply bereaved life companion, two sons, 10 grandchildren and great- grandchildren, three brothers, and many relatives and friends. She united with the Mennonite Church in her youth and remained a faithful and consistent member until death. Her last words were 'Come dear Jesus, I am ready.' Services were conducted by Bro. Joseph Kinsinger in German and Bro. D. W. Slagel in English. Interment in the Waldo cemetery."
