"WELL KNOWN HEIGHTS LADY "On Wednesday afternoon the death of Mrs. Jane V. Thomas of South Meade street was announced, and many who knew her sincerely mourned. She was 66 years of age and has been a resident of the Heights for twenty-five years, coming here from Rhandirmwyn, Wales. She has been a widow for many years and was a member of the Welsh Presbyterian Church. She leaves four adult children, Mr. Rees H. Richards; Mrs. Thomas Roberts and Mrs. Richard Hughes of this city, and William J. Thomas, who a month ago came over from Wales to visit his mother. She will not only be missed by her immediate friends, but her death will long be felt in the church. She lived and died enjoying the comforts of the highest Christian life. She was only ill five days, having contracted a severe cold that terminated in pneumonia. The funeral will take place to-day at 1:30 p.m. The remains will be taken to the Presbyterian Church, where services will be held. The pastor, Rev. J.O. Jones, officiating, assisted by Rev. W.H. Williams. Interment in Hollenback Cemetery." Nancy Cook Pasadena, MD USA Searching for DAUGHTON, DAVIES, JOHN and ROBERTS (Dad's Side) and BLAKE, SCHROEDER, HELLMEYER and KOENIG (Mom's Side)
