IRELAND INKLINGS

(Special Independent Service)

Julia Ann Eliza Wineinger was born in East Tennessee, Feb. 9, 1835, died suddenly Sept. 19, 1918, aged 83 years, 7 months and 10 days.  When she was about five years of age she came with her parents, John A. and Catherine Wineinger, to Orange county, Ind.  Afterwards, they moved to Dubois county, where she spent the remainder of her life.
Her chances for an education, like most pioneers, were meager.
While quite young she sought and found her Saviour and affiliated with the Methodist Episcopal church. 
She was united in marriage November 26, 1865 to Jesse Clay Corn.  To this union were born five children, three of whom are living - Mrs. Lillie Glezen of Wilkins, Texas, Mrs. Felora Root, with whom she made her home, and George P. Corn of Indianapolis. 
She also leaves three brothers and one sister out of thirteen; twenty grandchildren, three great-grandchildren and a host of other relatives and friends to mourn her death.  "Aunt" Eliza, as she was familiarly called, lived a useful life; always meeting her friends and neighbors with a happy smile, revealing the light within her soul.
The funeral service was held Sunday morning at the M.E. church conducted by Rev. M.L. Payton of Otwell, after which the remains were laid to rest in the Shiloh cemetery.
