Annie Craik Mills was born in Shopshire (sic), England, on December 12, 1859. At the age of eleven she came to the United States to make her future home, and on November 23, 1883, at Marengo, Ill., she was united in marriage to Mr. E. M. Brass. To this union, two sons, both of whom died in infancy, and one daughter, Mrs. Oscar Vieregg, of this city, whose constant companionship with her mother has been a beautiful illustration of affection, were born. In 1884, Mr. and Mrs. Brass moved to Nebraska, and have made their home in Grand Island since 1900. The quiet, kindly, and unassuming character of the deceased endeared her to all those who were so fortunate as to know her. Her home life was ideal and her work in the Presbyterian church, of which she was a member, her charities and her kindness were generous, but unostentatious. Mrs. Brass had been in failing health for about one year and passed away at the family home Tuesday, June 11, 1918. The entire community extends its sincere sympathy to the bereaved husband and daughter. ******** 3 items from the GI paper and her name is given as: Annie Craik Mills Mrs. Annie Craik Mills Brass Mrs. E.
