Jarvis - Mary


Source: Waveland Independent newspaper, Waveland, Montgomery County, Indiana, June 7, 1898

Mrs. Mary Jarvis, of this place, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. James Sturgeon, 5 mi. so. of town, yesterday evening. Her death is thought to have been caused by heart disease. She had been complaining of a smothering sensation during the day, and late in the afternoon went to the cellar on some errand. Members of the family heard her groaning and went to the cellar, where she was found lying face downward and unconscious. She was carried up stairs and put to bed but only lived about an hour. Mrs. Jarvis has been a resident of Waveland for many years, and leaves a large family of grown children. Funeral services will be held tomorrow at 10 o'clock.
