BEDFORD WEEKLY MAIL BEDFORD, INDIANA FRIDAY, FEB. 14, 1902 Mrs. Polly Cauble, who is thought to have been the oldest woman in Indiana, died yesterday morning at her home, in Oxonia a small town in Washington county, better known as Hitchcock's Station. Mrs. Cauble was born in North Carolina December 5, 1801, over a hundred years ago. She came to Washington county with her parents when a child and had never been out of the county boundaries since that time. At her centennial anniversary, which was celebrated the 5th of last December, nearly 1,000 persons called to congratulate the venerable woman. A huge tent was spread near the home of her son, James Cauble, with whom she lived, and tables were spread on which was placed an abundant supply of food for all comers. She was the mother of eleven children, nine of whom are still living, and she leaves fifty-five grandchildren, over one hundred great grandchildren and a half dozen great-great grandchildren.
