THE WESTERN STAR, 4 May 1895
Obituary of ELLENOR YATES
DEATH of ELLENOR YATES.

"Summer joys are o'er,
Florets bloom no more."

Ellenor Wells was born in Mullet county, Kentucky, January 12th, 1807; was married to Samuel Yates, March 12, 1833, and from Kentucky they removed to Calloway county, Mo., in 1851. Of this union there were eleven children born to them, 6 boys and 5 girls, all of whom survive her. She gave herself to Christ at the age of 14 years, and united with the M. E. church, since which time she has lived a devoted life, beloved by all who knew her. She fell asleep in Jesus, April 28, 1895, after an illness of six weeks, at the home of her daughter, Mrs. J. H. Hudson, in Avilla township, this county at the age of 88 years, 3 months and 16 days. She was preceded by her husband who entered into his Eternal rest about 8 years ago, in the full hope of Eternal life. May the kind and loving Father comfort and sustain the bereaved family.
