Electa Sherrill Morse

Notes:

The Oregon Bio Project has Electa's date of death as 24 Nov 1891. However, I believe that Monday was the 23rd of November that year; the death notices say that she died Monday night.

Death notice in The Dalles Times, 25 Nov 1891:
"REMINGTON -- At Fifteen Mile, Monday night, Mrs. Electa S. Remington, aged 75 years. The deceased was born in Oneida County, New York. She leaves a husband, to whom she was married 51 years ago, and three sons and one daughter to mourn her loss. She was buried at Fifteen Mile creek, from the family residence, this (Wednesday) morning, Rev. A. C. Spencer officiating."
