Free, Jane (1831-1910)

Word was received here of the death of Mrs. Jane Free at Lorene, Canada.  She was born in Ireland in 1831 and came to Canada with her parents when yet a small child.  She was married to Richard Free at Cranbourne, Canada, in 1848, and they came to Clark County in 1882 and resided on a farm at York Center until Mr. Free’s death in 1889.  In 1893 Mrs. Free went to Lorene, Quebec, to live with her daughter, Mrs. Wm. Bagley.  She is survived by three sons and two daughters, Richard of Town York, William of this city, John of Oregon, Mrs. Wm. Bagley of Lorene, Canada, and Mrs. John Bagley of Rochester, N. Y.

Mrs. Free was a most excellent lady and has a host of warm friends in this county.  She was a good woman and one whose charity and kindness was always a dominant feature of her life.
