NANCY (LIZZIE) RIDGWAY

Appleton City Journal
Thursday, 2 February 1899
Mrs. Lizzie Ridgway, wife of Mr. C.C. Ridgway, died Sunday Morning about 9 o’clock of pneumonia following a severe attack of La Grippe. Her remains were consigned to their last resting place Monday in the old Ridgway cemetery. Mrs. Ridgway was an industrious, hard working, kind hearted woman, beloved by all who knew her. She leaves a husband, who at this time is quite ill, four children, one an infant but little more than two weeks old, and a number of relatives, besides a host of friends to mourn her loss. Mrs. Ridgway was a member of the Spring Grove church and now that she is gone to her last rest, may the sainted mother in heaven sway a mightier influence over her husband and children than when she was present, and draw them by unseen cords to herself in heaven.
