Bio

Married to John Irvine 9 June 1883 as recorded in Howard County NE marriage Bk 1 p112 CALLED TO REST Mrs. John Irvine passed out of this life on the evening of Friday, April 11. Death being caused by a complication of diseases. Isabelle Gordon was born in the county of Formana, Ireland, on August 14th, 1858, and at her death was 54 years 7 months and 27 days old. In 1876, she left Ireland, coming to Toronto, Canada and living there six years. She then went to Grand Island, Nebr., where in the fall of 1880, she was joined in wedlock to John Irvine, the husband that now survives her. Five children were born to this union, two having died in infancy, and Janet being laid to rest at age of five years. The two children that are living are Isabelle, now Mrs. Albert Obermiller, and Mary Alice, now Mrs. Peter Larsen, both residing near Farwell. The deceased also had two sisters and one brother, one of the sisters, Mary Jane, having died 8 years ago at Ashton, Nebr. Her brother John is at present living in Sacramento, Calif., and the sister, Elizabeth, is living in Ireland. In 1883, the deceased joined the Presbyterian church of which she was a member until her death. The deceased was a woman beloved by her family, and she leaves a large circle of friends and acquaintances who will be grieved to learn of her death, but who will be glad to know that she has gone to her reward, as she certainly has, as she was a good woman, and was entitled to a rest in the other world where people go after living a good life here. The funeral services were conducted Monday, April 14th at 1:00 p.m. by the minister, and the body was laid to rest in the Vancott cemetery, followed by a host of sorrowing relatives and friends. We desire to add a few words of comfort to the bereaved ones and to extend our heartfelt sympathy in their hour of sorrow.
