Contributor: Mari Matulka (50950498) ------------------------------------- From the web site: http://www.usgennet.org/usa/ne/county/platte/vitals/vitals1909a.html Columbus Journal, April 14, 1909 Mrs. L.A. Cockson, residing on West Sixteenth street, died Wednesday morning, from heart disease. Mrs. Cockson was a former resident on the island south of the Platte, and moved to Columbus a short time ago. About nine years ago her husband died in England, while there on a visit. Funeral services will be held Friday morning at the Catholic church. Columbus Journal, April 21, 1909 Mrs. Lucy Cockson, widow of Charles Thomas Cockson, passed away at her home on West 16th street, Wednesday morning, April 14, at five o'clock, death resulting from a complication of diseases. Mrs. Cockson, nee Miss Lucy Anne Eaton, was born in England, March 8, 1837, and was at the time of her death but a few days past seventy-two years of age. In 1864 she was married to Charles Cockson, now deceased. To this union seven children were born, two of whom died in infancy and were buried in New York. Those surviving are Charles, Fred, Thomas and Harold, all of whom live on farms near Columbus, and one daughter, Miss Jennie, with whom the deceased was living at the time of her death. Mrs. Cockson resided in England until 1870, when accompanied by her husband and family she came to America, settling in New York, where they lived for two years, when they came to Polk county and located on a farm seven miles from this city, and where the deceased had made her home until last January, when she decided to leave her country home and come to this city to spend her declining years. Her husband, Charles Cockson, passed away in 1900. At the time of his death he was visiting the scenes of his childhood days in England, when he was taken ill with pneumonia, and four days later passed away. He was laid to rest in a cemetery in London, and since his death Mrs. Cockson has lived with her children.
