Mrs. Carrie Uren Dead.
Philomath, Or., Jan. 16 — Mrs. Chas. Uren died yesterday afternoon at 5 o’clock. She leaves a son, O.C. Eakin, and his wife, of this place, and their family of five or six children, a grand son, Mr. Blalock, and her husband; aged and feeble, who has the sympathy of the community.
Mrs. Uren’s maiden name was Leonard, and she was born in Ohio 77 years ago, next April. She married in her 17th year, M. Eakin, from which union were born four children, two of which survive her. She joined the Methodist church in early life.
About 20 years ago she remarried, and has been a stronghold in faith to her companion, whom she leaves to mourn her loss.

SOME NOTES

———
Mrs. Charles Uren died last night at 5 p.m. Her husband and two of her children by a former marriage and their families and some five grandchildren of her deceased daughter survive her.
She was a practical, persistent Christian since early maidenhood. She was born in Ohio and her maiden name was Leonard. Her first marriage was about 60 years ago, to M. Eakin, to whom were born four children, two of these dying in early life. Left a widow in 1888 and in 1890 married Chas. Uren. Both were members of the M.E. church but united with the Radical U.B.’s here.
Editor’s note: The actual first name of Mrs. Uren is presumed to be Lorinda based on what was etched into her grave marker but in a newspaper obituary, she was identified as Carrie Uren. Her death certificate identifies her as Mrs. Uren with a blank space where the first name was never entered. The death certificate also verifies her birthday as April 11, 1834 and her death as Jan. 15, 1911, which made her age 76 when she passed away (not 77 as indicated in one of the obituaries).
