7 "In Memorium," (De Ruyter) N83. De Ruyter Gleaner, 1894 Sep. 24, p. 1; "Mrs. Nancy Sanders died in Fabius, Onondaga county, N. Y, July 9, 1891, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. David Rowley (sic), at the advanced age of nearly 843 years. The deceased was born in Salem, Washington Co, N.Y. November 11, 1807. When a child her parents moved from that place to Manlius, in this county. Here she grew up to womanhood, and was united to Mr. Thomas Maxwell, in marriage. Two children were born to them. One is still living and the other died while young. The Lord saw fit to take this loving young husband from her side and she was left to mourn the loss of one so dear.
She remained a widow for two years, when she married Mr George Sanders of Lincklaen. N.Y. God blessed them with six children, five of whom survive her, one dying when a child. In 1870 the husband and father went out from the home, never again to return, to cheer and comfort the heart of the widowed mother, or lead tenderly by the hand, the children he loved. Mrs. Sanders remained at her home in Lincklaen for nearly two years, when
the only daughter remaining with her was married to Mr. Daniel Rowley of Fabius, and she came with her daughter to her new home.
Mrs. Rowley, with her faithful companion, and their children, took great pleasure in watching over and caring for her in her declining years. She was a devoted Christian many years, and when the infirmities of old age deprived her of church privileges, she was delighted to have Christians come to sing and pray with her, and the writer always found her rejoicing in home of her heavenly home. Sometimes her first greeting would be, "Have you brought Jesus with you?"
Suddenly, July 5th, she was stricken with paralysis and remained unconscious most of the few days she lived. Her daughter, Mrs. Rowley, and children, watched over her day and night most faithfully, doing all they could for her, till she entered into rest, safe from all sorrow and suffering, in the beautiful home in heaven.
Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Smith. Beautiful flowers were on the casket, the loving tributes of kind neighbors, to the memory of this aged mother. The remains were taken to her old home in Licklaen and laid at rest in the beautiful hillside cemetery, till "Jesus comes." Be ye also ready. L. E. Bates"
