    3. MRS. HARRIET E. BAILEY, 74, DIES Adams, June 11. - Mrs Harriet Elizabeth Bailey, 74, widow of Dwight L. Bailey, died this morning at 10 at her home in the town of Rodman where she had passed practically her entire life. She was one of the leading citizens of her neighborhood and prominent in church and club circles. Mrs. Bailey was born Dec. 10, 1855, in the town of Rodman, a daughter of John G. and Betsey L. Wait. She was the twelfth child in a family of 13 and is survived by one sister, Mrs. Eunice Robinson, 328 Academy street, Watertown. She was married Sept. 20, 1876, to Dwight L. Bailey who died Oct. 2, 1902. She was a member of the Eastern Star, and a member of the Ladies Aid society of the Congregational church. Mrs. Bailey is survived by one son, J.Hart Bailey of Rodman and two daughters, Mrs. R.W.Hardy of Watertown and Mrs. A.E.Cole of Rodman. Her sister, Mrs. Eunice Robinson of Watertown, also survives as do five granddaughters, one grandson and one great grandson. Funeral services will be held Friday at 2 p.m. from the Bailey home with Rev. A.G.Todd, pastor of the Congregational church, officiating. Interment will be made at Fairview cemetery at Rodman. * NOTES - I have a photocopy of this article that I got at the Flowers Library, out of the BAILEY family file. The article doesn't say what newspaper it was in or the date of the article. I am guessing that her year of death was June 11, 1930.
