Vernum, Roxey Ann (1 MAR 1837 – 7 SEP 1915)

Roxey Ann Vernum was born in Warren County, Pennsylvania, on March 1, 1837. Died at the home of her son, Mark Chadwick, on Tuesday evening, Set. 7th. She was united in marriage to Thomas Chadwick and came to Clark County 43 years ago, settling on a farm west of the river. They lived there a short time and then went to the present Chadwick home north of Christie which remained their home until their death. Mr. Chadwick died in June, 1911. Mrs. Chadwick is survived by one son, Mark, the daughter born to her having died some years ago.

Mrs. Chadwick was a most estimable lady and was well and favorably known to all of the earlier settlers of the county and her death is regretted keenly by all her friends. The funeral was held Friday at Christie church, interment being made in the Weston Cemetery.
