Bio
Obituary, Fri, 18 Dec 1925--Mrs. Margaret Comstock Dead--Mrs. Margaret Comstock, brief mention of whose illness was made in our last issue, died at her home south of town Sunday morning, following a week's illness from pneumonia. The following is handed us by a friend. Margaret Catherine Comstock was born near Myers, Howard county, November, 1856. Her beautiful and devoted life ended at 7:20 o'clock, with the awakening of a new day, December 13, 1925, being 69 years and one month old. She united with the Christian church at New Hope, present church, during her early girlhood, and later united with the Holiness church, known as Myers Chapel, near Myers. She was the third child of a family of seven children of Joseph and Rachel Perkins, and was married in November, 1870 to Jackson Jamison, who died the following June. She was married to Thomas Arad Comstock December 26, 1871, at the age of fifteen years. They were married fifty years December 26, 1921, the husband and father dying January 15, 1922. Seven children were born to this union, two of whom died in early childhood. The tragic death of the youngest of the family, a little daughter, Mary bell, four years old, who was burned to death, was the great sorrow of the parents. The surviving children are: Geo. T., Lee and Joe Lindsey Comstock, all of Kansas City; Mrs. B. F. Kirby and Charlie Comstock of near town. She is also survived by one sister, Mrs. Bettie Shomaker, and one brother, John A. Perkins both of Salisbury. Both were with her during her last hours. She is also survived by eighteen grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Funeral services were held Monday afternoon by the Rev. F. V. Brower and interment made in New Hope cemetery.
